Founder's App Launchpad Session
90-minute advisory session to build your actionable roadmap
Starting an app as an early-stage founder is hard. There's a lot riding on it - you need to get your startup to the next level, and make every pound of your budget count.
With limited time, resources and tech know-how, it’s hard to know where to start. Advice is thin on the ground, and what there is is conflicting - should you build a mobile app or a web app? How much should you spend? What features do you actually need to build?
If this sounds familiar, the Founder's App Launchpad Session is for you.
I've been helping startups and enterprises build apps for more than 20 years. I know what works (and what doesn't), and in your Founder's App Launchpad Session, we'll cover the essentials you need to know to get your app up and running as a founder.
👤 Who is it for
Early-stage startup founders who need to build or scale an MVP.
You know your industry / product inside-out. But you need help translating that into an app, so you can make confident, informed decisions that move your product - and your business - forward.
✅ What it includes
- A 90-minute, 1:2:1 advisory session tailored to your unique challenges and goals, so you get answers specific to your startup.
- Practical advice on platform choices, tech stack decisions, cost-effective strategies, and user validation, helping you focus on what matters most.
- Follow up via email, messaging or a quick call to review your progress, answer new questions and refine your next steps.
🎯 What you'll walk away with
- A clear, actionable roadmap to guide your next steps, avoid common pitfalls, and keep your project moving forwards.
- Confidence in the decisions you make about platform, tech stack, and features, so you can move ahead without second-guessing.
- A clear understanding of how to quickly validate your product with your target market, reducing risk and avoiding costly mistakes.
💬 Why it works
I've got a wealth of experience over 20+ years developing apps for the likes of Bearable, Accenture, and the Ministry of Defence.
And through my advisory roles with people like CGX, Planet Sport and Big Change, I'm a dab hand at translating tech into normal-speak, and vice versa, so people who aren't technical can make informed and confident decisions.
But what's really special about these sessions is the collaboration. You bring your deep knowledge and experience in your sector, I'll bring my tech brain, and together we'll make a plan to tackle your challenges (including the ones you don't even realise you have!).
🩷 What people say
Here are some of the lovely things startup founders have shared about working with me.
"Massive help in time saving and focus. Gabrielle's experience has helped us answer a lot of questions that we had by just going fast, cheap and finding product market fit before anything else."
"Gabrielle showed me how to make my app run tons faster. I would never have even known I could do that with the tech I was using."
"Very collaborative style - over-delivered - helped us not panic about our deadline! Plus intro’d us to potential suppliers who could help - and turned out to be high quality."
"I honestly hadn't seen someone with that much experience with mobile apps before! Gabrielle is able to solve almost any technical problem, carefully laying out and explaining the costs and benefits of each solution to any layperson."
