This team has done an amazing job on building and designing my website, they exceeded my expectations and I couldn’t be happier. Will definitely be recommending to anyone who needs a website built! 10/10 customer service as well! Cannot fault

Working with Launch North for our website design and development, as well as search engine optimisation has been incredibly easy and very fruitful for our business.We’re based in Melbourne predominantly, so with their team based in Brisbane, I worried about how it would all pan out without being able to meet face-to-face - but, their solid communication and results-oriented approach to business has honestly really set them apart from other providers myself and my business partners have used in the past.We’ve run SaaS and other tech businesses in the past, so black-hat SEO and other dodgy practices are always top of mind when selecting an SEO provider. I’ve found the Launch North team to be incredibly transparent and educational when it comes to the work that they’re doing for us which is a huge breath of fresh air (and possibly to their own detriment, as they essentially teach you the tricks of the trade). For our business at least, they provide a dashboard (through Asana) so we can track what they’re doing for you and provide weekly phone consultations and monthly reports so we know where we stand!TLDR: They’re a great team, very transparent and educational, and we are incredibly happy with the results thus far!

From the moment I met with Chris, nothing was too much trouble. The website and content was completed in a timely fashion to the specifications I required. I would have no hesitation in recommending Chris and his team and looking forward to working closely with them in the coming months and reaping the rewards due to their marketing know how and experience.

Since engaging Launch North in early 2021, Chris and his team have redesigned the way that we approach marketing and vastly improved our web presence as a recruitment software provider of 26 years, their ability to understand what I was trying to achieve having not really spent very much time on marketing before was more than I could possibly of imagined.My company now has a much more professional and fit for purpose presence in our own industry, our web rankings have improved to the point that on some of the best searches for my industry keywords we are already on page 1 of google (from page 9 and higher) and many people have complimented me on the new fresh image that we are trying to put across including our new website.I am working with Launch North on improving our social media presence and their ability to come up with amazing content for blogs and posts has been truly outstanding. I am able to contact them at almost any time and on a couple of occasions I have had need of them last minute with projects and they have always come through for me.I would highly recommend to anyone.Brian HillRDB Now PTY Ltd

I worked with Chris at launch north, he has been doing all of my seo and google adds for my business as well as website etc. As a stonemason I’m now getting more enquiry than ever before as we are at the top of first page for many of our key words to do with our business. Highly recommend his company and the person himself. Great service, very professional and easy to deal with.
