Slingshot Brand Support 

Catapult believes that brands with product concepts should have support, even at an early stage, despite limited financial resources.  To that end, we have started our Slingshot Program to provide product concept and tailored technical support at a point in a brand’s lifecycle where they have more time than money.  While this is the case; education, networking, and technical guidance provide the most value to growing brands.  The primary goal of the Slingshot Program is to provide on-going access to professional expertise and advice during the critical stages of creating, developing, and building your brand.

Our Slingshot program provides

  • Biweekly meetings (every other week) for 1 hour with an expert targeted to your needs

  • Reasonable levels of email responses (15-30 minutes per week, max)

  • Rotation of experts as needs change and evolve

  • Access to all our team’s experience, tools, and data insights
