The founder videos are holding attention longer than the statics, and two comments this week mention the taste. Worth a new hook on taste for V1?

Liam, Monday

Yep, good spot. Editing it now. Keeping the budget where it is until Thursday so we get a fair read.

Fig. 05 · Who

Hi, I'm Liam.

I've spent ten years in digital and paid advertising, first at agencies on some big brands, then on my own with ambitious founders.

Slipway is my launch marketing studio for UK consumer brands in wellness, fitness, subscription and lifestyle.

I'd love to hear your story and where you want to take it. Pop your details in below and let's talk.

Fig. 06 · Questions

Questions founders ask.

Who is it for?

It’s for UK consumer brands in wellness, fitness, subscription and lifestyle that are about to launch, or have just launched. It works for an established brand launching a new product or membership too.

How much ad budget do I need?

You’ll need at least £5,000 a month for the three months. You pay that straight to the ad platforms, on top of the £2,495 a month fee.

What do I need to do?

We set up the ad account for you. Your part is to complete onboarding, film the founder videos from the scripts we write (or book a production shoot with us), and stay close to us along the way. A launch works best when we build it together, so expect a quick weekly check-in and a call every two weeks.

What if it doesn’t work?

Nobody can promise results, and we won’t. The first weeks live are for testing. We watch every result in your Cockpit, fix what isn’t working and tell you straight what we see. After twelve weeks you decide whether to carry on.

Why Slipway and not another agency?

We only take on a few brands at a time, so you get real attention. The price is fixed, the ads are made by a person, and you can see everything as it happens in your Cockpit.
