Launch Angle was founded in 2018 after having very similar conversations with ambitious business leaders, founders and marketers. They all were ready for that next breakthrough moment but they were unsure of how to make it happen. This was more than proving their theory right, they wanted actionable insights and clear next steps with a trusted partner guiding them along the way.
We see the same philosophy working in the business world. A generation ago, best in class companies could read the best selling business books, apply best practices in the industry and expect a decent level of success. Now, the speed of business changes so often that the things that used to separate good from great companies are now simply table stakes. We know that every company has their own growth trajectory and we help them find their beautiful sweet spot that leads to their next breakthrough moment.
