Inside an Insight to Action engagement
Justin Gardner, 17six — photographer and production partner for professional services and creative agencies.
Justin had been running 17six for years. The work was genuinely good — Deloitte, HSBC, FormulaE, the Army. A portfolio most production companies would lead with.
But the marketing wasn't keeping up. The positioning didn't name who it was for, and the thing that actually made him different wasn't visible anywhere.
He knew something was off. He just needed someone to name it.
"For years, I struggled with direction in my marketing, unsure what to put on my website or how to move forward. Working with Laura Thompson at Connect Studio completely changed that. Laura took the time to understand my values and helped me identify my core pillars. She gave me a clear, actionable plan, and now I have a structured, refreshed approach. Laura's insight made me realise things about my business I'd never considered. She provided simple, effective steps, copy for my website and more, that made everything easier. She's driven, knowledgeable, and wonderful to work with. I'd highly recommend Laura to anyone seeking clarity and a solid marketing direction."

What an Insight to Action engagement produces
We started with the I/We/They diagnostic to get underneath what the business actually stands for, who it's genuinely built for, and what those people need to hear.
From there, the engagement covered: positioning and messaging, new website copy across every page, a content plan built around the right audiences, and a clear go-to-market approach, with a first move that's easy to act on.
Not a summary. Not a slide deck. A working strategy with real copy and a clear next step.
This is what Insight to Action looks like.
Four to six weeks. One engagement. Everything you need to stop describing your business differently every time someone asks.
Insight to Action — £2,500.
