The Launch Firm is a small, agile enterprise that starts up new ventures for both nonprofit and for-profit organizations. Founded by Laura Longley in 2005, the company helps clients assess and shape proposed projects to make them feasible and fundable. We identify prospective partners, secure resources, implement marketing communications programs, and measure success. As the firm’s principal, Longley brings to you and your projects experience that is broad and deep. If special expertise is needed, she calls upon several trusted and very talented affiliates who provide, for example, video production, advertising, e-commerce, and web site design.

Across the board, The Launch Firm delivers senior-level thinking and service. And in an economy where every dollar counts, The Launch Firm can assure organizations there’s a steady hand at the budget helm.
