This page is empty on purpose.
LaunchNaro is new. Rather than fill this page the way new agencies usually do, here is exactly what will go on it and how to judge us in the meantime.
Why there is nothing here
We could fill this page the way new agencies usually do — stock photography dressed up as client work, logos of companies we have never worked with, a +340% conversion increase with no source attached.
We would rather you could trust everything else on this site. So this page stays empty until there is real work to put on it, approved by the client, with numbers we can point at a source for.
In the meantime the parts of the site that are full tell you more than a portfolio grid would: the programme of works shows exactly how a project runs, and clause 02 lists every technical decision we make and why.
- Client logos we have not been given permission to display — not included
- Stock photography presented as project work — not included
- Conversion statistics with no methodology attached — not included
- Testimonials written by anyone other than a client — not included
- Awards, badges, and certifications we have not received — not included
- Project or client counts of any kind — not included
What a reference will contain
Not a gallery. A written account of a decision and its consequence.
Most agency case studies are a hero image, three adjectives, and a number with no methodology. They are unfalsifiable, which is also what makes them useless for deciding whether to hire someone.
Ours will name what was tried, what it cost, and how we know whether it worked — including the parts that did not.
- 01The business, the sector, and what they were actually trying to fix
- 02The brief as agreed, including what we decided not to do
- 03The design and engineering decisions, and the reasoning behind each
- 04Measured outcomes with their source named — analytics, Search Console, or field data
- 05Real screenshots of the shipped site
- 06A client quote, only with written permission and their own words
Judging us without a portfolio
Four things you can check right now that tell you more than a gallery would.
Run this site through PageSpeed Insights. It is built the way we build client sites. If it is slow, that is a fair thing to hold against us.
Navigate it with your keyboard. Tab through the navigation and the enquiry form. Focus should always be visible and every control reachable.
Read a clause properly. Clause 03 spends half its length explaining what we do not do. That is either reassuring or disqualifying, and either way it is information.
Ask us something specific. Send a real question about your project. The quality of the reply is a better predictor than anyone’s portfolio.
Documents that are not empty
- 01The nine stages of a projectWhat happens, when, and what you receive at each one.
- 02Basis of quotationThe eight variables that decide what a website costs.
- 03How much does a website cost?Including how to compare two quotes that look nothing alike.
- 04Statement of positionFour positions that settle most arguments up front.
