How it compares

Not a site builder. Not a retainer.

Affordable website design without doing it yourself: think of Launch as a starter website, built by a studio and kept healthy. Launch includes no social, strategy, reporting or ads.

The way up

Start with a site. Grow into a partner.

When you are ready for social, strategy and reporting, move up to a marketing retainer. Launch setup fees you paid in the past 12 months are credited, and the $2,500 startup fee is waived.

How it works

Six steps, ten business days.

  1. Reserve your spot

    Pick a plan and a term. We take five new Launch sites a month so every one gets real attention.

  2. Fill in the intake

    Your services, hours, photos and the look you like, chosen from colour and font pairs that pass accessibility checks.

  3. We build it

    We draft the copy and build the site on Bougie Core, our own engine. A designer reviews every page.

  4. You review once

    One round of changes on a preview link (two on Launch Plus).

  5. Go live

    We connect your domain, and email and the CRM if you added them. Live in 10 business days.

  6. Edit it yourself

    Change text, photos, hours and posts through simple forms. Every edit is checked before it publishes, so you cannot break the site.

The editor

Change your own site. Without breaking it.

Every Launch site comes with the Bougie Editor: simple forms for the parts of your site you change most. No page builder, no login to forget. You get a sign-in link by email.

  • Edit in plain forms.

    Headings, paragraphs, hours, services, FAQs and posts each get a labelled box. Boxes with a length limit show a live character count, so text always fits its spot on the page.

  • Swap photos from your phone.

    Tap Replace this photo, pick one from your camera roll, and the editor resizes it for the web and strips its location data before it uploads.

  • See it before anyone else does.

    Preview builds a private copy of your whole site with your changes in about a minute. The live site doesn't change until you publish.

  • Checked, then live, and undoable.

    Every change runs through our automated checks before it publishes, and is live in about 10 minutes. Changed your mind? Undo any edit from your site's history.

  • The Bougie Editor edit form for a café home page: labelled boxes for the eyebrow, heading and subheading, each with a live character count such as 29 of 90 characters, and a Replace this photo link under the image.
  • The Bougie Editor preview page reading "Your preview is ready", with a link to open a private preview and a note that nothing is live until you publish.
  • The Bougie Editor history page listing three recent changes to the site, each with an Undo this change button.

Prefer we do it? One small change a month is included, and extra changes are $49.

Common Questions

Before you reserve, the honest answers.

Who is Bougie Launch for?

Owner-operators with a real business and no time: cafés, food trucks, wineries, coaches, wellness practices, trades and new businesses. It is not for stores with a large product catalog or for anyone who wants full design control; we will point you somewhere better suited.

What does "done with you" mean?

You tell us about your business through a guided intake, we build the site, you approve it, and then you keep it current yourself through locked-down forms. You never touch a page builder, and you are never left on your own.

What can I edit myself?

Text in marked fields, photos, hours, menus, services, prices, team bios, blog posts, events and an announcement banner. Layout, navigation, colours, fonts, legal pages and the consent banner stay locked so the site keeps working and stays accessible.

Can I break my site by editing it?

No. You can change words, photos, hours, services and posts. Layout, code and search settings stay with us, and every change is checked before it goes live. If something still isn't right, undo it from your site's history.

Do I have to edit it myself?

No. Many owners never open the editor. One small change a month is included; send it to us and we'll make it.

Is it accessible?

Every Launch site is built to target WCAG 2.2 AA and checked before launch. Each edit you make runs the same checks (alt text, headings, contrast, link text) before it publishes. We do not use overlay widgets.

What does Launch not include?

Launch includes no social, strategy, reporting or ads. Those come with a marketing retainer, and everything you pay in Launch setup fees in the past 12 months is credited when you move up.

How do terms and cancellation work?

The 12-month term gets the lower setup fee and monthly rate. Month to month costs more ($999 setup and $79/mo for Launch) and you can cancel any time. A 24-month term has no setup fee. If you cancel before we start your build, you get a full refund.

Who owns the site and domain?

You do. The domain is registered in your name and your content is yours. If you ever leave, we hand it over.
