Launch Career 1A
Launch Career has decided to extend its campaign until 30 April 2025 (instead of 10 March 2025).
Subscription Business Model:
LAUNCH's SaaS business model centers around annual subscription packages without an entry fee, making it easy for companies to onboard and start utilizing our platform. This low barrier to entry serves as a strategic advantage, allowing potential clients to adopt the platform quickly.
The yearly packages range from €5,000 (Light) to €10,000 (Premium Plus), tailored to the specific recruitment needs of each client. This tiered structure enables flexibility for companies of all sizes and hiring needs. Furthermore, this model allows for upselling opportunities as clients' recruitment needs evolve. For example, existing clients can upgrade to more comprehensive packages, including more messaging campaigns or more opportunity slots.
Growth Forecast:
LAUNCH has already secured over 50 corporate clients, including notable names like McKinsey, Allen & Overy Shearman, Bain & Company, Baloise, P&V, and Atlas Copco. However, the growth strategy is also focused on expanding to smaller enterprises that hire less frequently. This broadens market reach and stabilizes revenue streams across various industries and company sizes.
The target is to onboard 200 companies by 2027, which would allow to achieve break-even status. The growth in the client base will be driven by an increased focus on marketing and targeted sales efforts.

Use of Funds:
To support the growth trajectory, the funds will be strategically invested as follows:
- 55% of funds will be invested in marketing initiatives to expand reach among young talents. This includes participating in student events and expanding the ambassador network. These efforts will help LAUNCH reach the tipping point of 40,000 connected talents (up from the current 15,000), positioning LAUNCH as the go-to partner for young talent recruitment.
- 10% of funds will be invested in direct sales to hire a dedicated team member to focus on converting identified leads into paying customers.
- 35% of funds will be allocated to technology development, with a primary focus on enhancing platform capabilities. This includes building a self-service portal and implementing advanced data services for premium clients. These features will not only allow for greater autonomy and insights for the clients but will also open the door to new market segments. The data services, in particular, present an upselling opportunity for clients interested in advanced recruitment tools, such as diversity and inclusion metrics.
