The Launch Pad — Start your business this 2nd Saturday, free.

THE LAUNCH PAD — KINGDOM GATE CHAMBER

We Help You Build It.
Nothing Is Required.

For members who want it: real people sitting next to you, helping build your website, set up Google, film your first video, and automate your marketing. All free. All voluntary. All available when you’re ready.

✓ AVAILABLE TO ALL MEMBERS  ·  ✓ NEVER REQUIRED  ·  ✓ FREE

How the Launch Pad Works

Every Saturday breakfast has a Launch Pad workshop from 10–11 AM (right after the main breakfast). Bring your laptop, your business, and your questions. A volunteer sits next to you and helps build — explaining every step so you walk away knowing how to do it yourself. Come once, come every time, or never. Your call.

01 SERVICE 1 — WEBSITE

Your Website — Built With You, Not For You

You bring your laptop and your business idea. A volunteer sits next to you and builds your website WITH you — explaining every step. You own it. You control it. You leave knowing how to update it yourself. WordPress, Carrd, or whatever fits your situation and budget ($0–$15/month).

What happens:
  • AI generates your About page, service descriptions, and homepage copy in real-time
  • Volunteer builds alongside you — you watch, learn, and take over
  • Mobile-optimized with Home, About, Services, and Contact pages
  • Your site links to your Kingdom Gate directory listing. Your listing links back.
  • Not ready for a full site? We’ll set up a free Google Business Profile website as a placeholder.

You walk away with: A live website done in 2–3 hours. Market value: $2,000–$6,000.

Not ready? That’s completely fine. The offer stands whenever you are — even if that’s 6 months from now.

02 SERVICE 2 — GOOGLE LOCAL

Google Local Setup — Show Up in Maps This Week

We set up or fully optimize your Google Business Profile in 30 minutes. A professional headshot taken at breakfast. Your first 3 GBP posts written and scheduled using AI. Review request templates personalized and sent to 5 past customers before you leave.

What happens:
  • GBP claimed, verified, and fully optimized (categories, hours, photos, description)
  • Professional headshot taken on a phone against a clean background at breakfast
  • First 3 posts written using AI and scheduled
  • Custom review request link and QR code created
  • 5 personalized review request messages sent to your past customers before you leave

You walk away with: A fully optimized GBP that helps you show up for “[your service] + Brighton/Howell” in Google Maps. Market value: $400–$1,000.

Not sure you need this? Even if you just want the community, we’ll mention it once. If not interested, zero pressure.

03 SERVICE 3 — YOUTUBE VIDEO

Your First YouTube Video — Coached by a 950K Creator

Tom (or an experienced member) spends 10 minutes coaching you on what to say. We film on a phone at breakfast. Format: “Hi, I’m [name], I own [business]. Here’s the #1 question I get asked…” — and you answer it. Uploaded with proper title, description, and tags before you leave.

What happens:
  • 10-minute coaching session: we help you figure out what to say and how to say it
  • Filmed on a phone with good lighting and clean background — 60-second Short or 3–5 min “About My Business”
  • Uploaded to YouTube with SEO-optimized title, description, and tags
  • Embedded on your website and Kingdom Gate directory listing

You walk away with: A live YouTube video representing your business. Market value: $600–$2,000.

Not comfortable on camera? Totally fine. Some members never film a video — and that’s great. The offer stands whenever you’re ready.

04 SERVICE 4 — REVIEW BLITZ

Review Blitz — From 0 to Credible in 30 Days

A custom Google Review link and QR code created at breakfast. Three text message templates personalized to your business. An automated review request system set up on free tools. Goal: 10–15 reviews in 30 days, 50 in 6 months.

What happens:
  • Custom Google Review shortlink and printable QR code created on the spot
  • 3 personalized text message templates written for your specific business
  • Free automated review request system (Birdeye Free / NiceJob Free) set up
  • First batch of review requests sent to your past customers before you leave

You walk away with: An active review acquisition system. 93% of consumers say reviews affect their purchase decisions. Market value: $300–$800.

Take what you need. Skip what you don’t.
