Launch Sites

Professional design, built-in enrollment tools, and a fast launch. Priced for Christian schools on a budget.

If DIY won't cut it,

but a custom site isn’t happening right now…

You’re not alone. 

We see a lot of Christian schools stuck in this "budget purgatory."

They want and need more than they can do in-house, but they can't yet afford the premium cost of a professional, agency-built website. 

If that’s your school, we made Launch Sites for you.

Woman looking worried at laptop, Christian school website design concept.

You may need a Launch Site if…

  • You have no website.
  • You have a website, but it’s dull or dated.
  • You need a major upgrade sooner, not later.
  • You got a quote for a custom website and nearly fell out of your chair.
  • You've tried building your own site or using volunteers, but were disappointed with the process and result.
  • You suspect your current website is undermining your school's credibility and deterring mission-fit families.

What's Included in Every Launch Site

Everything a Christian school needs to get a professional website and lead capture system. Fast.

1) A Great Website

Your school's first impression is online, and it happens before a family ever calls. What they find when they land on your site will influence whether they reach out at all.

Every Launch Site is built to make that first impression count. Beautifully designed, enrollment-focused, and structured around what future families are actually looking for.

INCLUDES:

  • Events Calendar
  • Staff Directory
  • Announcement Banners
  • Photo Galleries
  • Tour Schedule Calendar
  • Essential on-page SEO

2) Content Writing Help

What you say on your website is even more important than how it looks. 

But knowing what to say and how to say it is difficult for most school leaders. This hurdle often slows the website-building process and/or results in sites that look great but aren't effective. 

That's why we developed the Content Kit. It includes a set of resources crafted to make writing significantly easier and better, so you're not staring at a blank page wondering where to start. And it comes with every Launch Site. 

INCLUDES:

  • Content Gathering Doc
  • Custom AI Writing Assistant
  • Website Photography Guide
  • Prompt Guide
  • Expert Content Review

3) A Simple CRM

With a great design and compelling words, your website will start attracting more mission-fit families. This inevitably leads to a new series of challenges:
  1. Capturing that attention in the form of new inquiries and leads
  2. Ensuring those leads don't fall through the cracks

With Banner Connect Lite, every lead drops directly into your admissions pipeline, so you always know who's interested, where they are in the process, and what they need next.

INCLUDES:

  • Enrollment dashboard
  • Admissions pipeline
  • Inquiry forms connected to your CRM
  • Tour scheduling calendar
  • Contact records and activity history

4) Hosting & Support

What if great power didn't come with great responsibility?

We believe school leaders should be able to manage their own website without going through a third party for every change. But we also know you didn't get into Christian education hoping to manage a web server or monitor uptime. 

With a Care Plan, your team gets full access to manage content on your terms, while we handle everything beneath the surface.

INCLUDES:

  • Managed hosting, SSL, security, and backups
  • 24/7 uptime monitoring
  • Monthly analytics report
  • Knowledge base access
  • 1:1 launch training
  • Annual website audit call

Here's what to expect from “Let’s go!” to live!…

Step 1: Kickoff

You'll fill out a short intake form, then we'll get on a call to learn about your school, context, and community.

Step 2: Content

You'll get access to our Content Kit with the resources, tools, and guidance to help you write better and faster.

Step 3: Build

Once your content is ready, we'll customize your new website to reflect your brand and content.

Step 4: Refine

You'll share feedback and request any final adjustments. We'll revise, then get the "all clear" to launch.

Step 5: Launch

Your website goes live, current and future families are delighted, and we celebrate with high fives all around!

Step 6: Support

We provide ongoing training and support and send a monthly report about the site's performance.
