Why We Built This
After years managing fast-paced hospitality venues—juggling rotas, training, cashing up, and firefighting every shift—I saw the same pattern: everyone was improvising, overworked, and unsupported. I created Launchpad Solutions to give managers and operators tools I wish I'd had—clear, tested templates that make everyday tasks faster and smarter.Whether you’ve just stepped into a GM role or you're launching your first independent venue, we offer personalised guidance rooted in years of frontline experience. From staff structure to shift briefs, ops manuals to culture building—we help you prioritise, simplify, and lead with confidence.This isn’t theory—it’s all built from lived experience on the floor
