DIY vs. Agency vs. Launch Labs

Still need a website, or shame-scrolling what you’ve got?

Yeah—we get it. You keep trying to fix it, but your options haven’t been great… until now.


DIY Template

Cheap but takes weeks of tinkering

Still feels… y’know


$15k Agency

Looks great but costs big (and drags on)

You’re left with a complex build and need ongoing support to maintain it

Launch Labs

AU$5k · 5 days · guided start-to-finish

You launch Friday—proud and ready

4 simple steps

How a Launch Lab works

Build with us. Launch in 5 days.

1

You grab the keys, we set up your Lab

You pick your Lab and we get everything ready — expert-approved Squarespace template, resources unlocked, support channels open. You’ll start Monday with clarity, not confusion.

2

Create your content with copywriting prompts and smart AI tools

No blank pages. You’ll use our AI voice assistant, pre-written frameworks, and story-driven prompts to fill out your pages — fast.

3

Plug into template and build together

Pre-built with SEO and strategic layouts for your field. Each day brings walkthroughs, chat + feedback. Get expert eyes on everything — we help you shape the design, tweak the content, and keep moving.

4

Launch Friday

Final polish → hit publish → show off your site with confidence. We’ll cover any small tweaks, connect your site up, and we hit big shiny green button together.

Features

Why it works

Templates alone can’t build a business. And full-agency builds drain your cash and time—fast. Launch Labs hits the sweet spot: strategy, design, and content support, built for your field alongside an industry expert.


Built with real pros

Each template kit is shaped alongside an expert in that field—interior photographer, Nat Spada, female founder coach, Cassie Ellen—it’s a killer roster.

Pages that book work

Professional layouts that turn visitors into paying clients. Designed with your industry front and centre to authentically represent your field.

Clear finish line

No endless tweaking. Just five focused days to build something real — and launch it proud by Friday. No endless revisions, ghosting and purchase regrets.

Easy writing tools

Brand-trained AI helper friends to fill in copy fast — no more blank page freeze. We've built custom GPTs to train in your brand voice and messaging to sharpen your content, lift the load, and keep you sounding like you.

Google-ready

Fast load, clean code, SEO foundations sorted and guidance on how to get the most out of the Big Goog.

Guided, not DIY

You're not left to figure it out alone. We walk you through each step — daily videos, Slack check-ins, and real-time support that makes it feel like you’ve got a team in your pocket.

One–size–fits–no–one, son.

The humans behind your build

Hey, we’re Laura & Tony—conversational copywriter and design strategist with a couple decades turning scrappy passion projects into professional outfits.

We’re the duo behind Brightfolk Studio.

For years we watched two extremes choke great businesses:

  • DIY template trap—drag‑and‑drop nightmares that never quite line up, leaving you apologising for your site on sales calls.

  • Custom‑site bloat—five‑month timelines, five‑figure surprises, and a dev who ghosts when you need a tweak.

We weren’t fans. So we distilled our agency process into Launch Labs.

Now you get our full‑studio brains on your website for five focused days, without the price‑tag. We bring the strategy, design, and content guidance developed alongside an industry expert—you bring the coffee and your best work. By Monday, your site’s booking while you’re out on your next project.

Grab a Lab, let’s build.
