Terms & Conditions

Welcome to Launchpad by Alister, our creative collaboration campaign where we offer one business a full branding and website package, completely free.

Before you apply, here are the details, rules, and fine print to keep things clear and fair.

Who Can Apply

To be eligible, you must:

  • Have a business that’s been active for at least 1–2 years
  • Have an existing product, service, or offering in-market (even if it’s just a beta version)
  • Be 18 years of age or older
  • Be open to creative collaboration and feedback, including possible changes to your brand name, logo, or visual identity

We’re looking for businesses that are ready to level up, not just in need of a logo, but a full transformation.

What’s Included

The selected winner will receive a branding and website package valued at $15,000 CAD, including:

  • Brand strategy & positioning
  • Visual identity design
  • Website design & development (up to 6 pages in Webflow)
  • Creative direction and brand rollout guidance

Important:

The prize does not include e-commerce functionality, advanced custom features, or any third-party costs. If you want to add features like e-commerce, additional pages, or other tools, those can be added at your expense.

Costs Covered by You

The selected business will be responsible for:

  • Website hosting (e.g., Webflow hosting fees)
  • Domain purchase or renewal
  • Any third-party licenses (fonts, stock photography, apps, etc.)
  • Any add-ons not included in the core package

What We Ask From You

If you’re selected, you agree to:

  • Let us document the process (design decisions, milestones, behind-the-scenes) to use in marketing, social media, and future case studies
  • Provide a written testimonial once the project is complete
  • Participate in light marketing efforts (such as an email Q&A or feature spotlight)

We’ll always present your brand with integrity but you agree we have full creative freedom to share the journey and results.
