What can we build together?
Let's build something that matters
The Studio Partnership can support a wide range of business development, marketing and creative projects. The starting point is not a standard package — it's the outcome you want to achieve.
Offer Development
Develop clearer products, services, propositions and value ladders that help people understand what you offer and why it matters.
Landing Pages & Websites
Create focused landing pages, website content and effective calls to action that help visitors take the next step.
Lead Generation & Sales Funnels
Develop connected marketing journeys designed to attract prospects, build trust and support enquiries and purchases.
Content & Copywriting
Create articles, emails, scripts, website copy and campaign content that communicate your value more effectively.
Books, Guides & Learning Resources
Turn ideas, experience and expertise into useful resources — ebooks, lead magnets, guides, workbooks and educational material.
Marketing Campaigns & Follow-Up
Develop campaigns, email sequences and follow-up systems that connect marketing activity with purposeful next steps.
Your project may involve one of these areas or several connected elements. We agree the scope around what you need to achieve.
Two ways to work together
Done with you, or done for you
Every partnership takes one of two shapes. Done With You is the preferred approach — it builds better collaboration, real learning and support that lasts beyond the project. Done For You remains a credible, equally professional option when time or capacity is limited.
Done With You
Build it together. Learn as you go.
This is the preferred Studio Partnership approach. You work directly with Chris Batten to explore ideas, make decisions, develop assets, review progress and work towards an agreed result. Your experience and knowledge remain central; Chris brings independent perspective, practical expertise, constructive challenge and guidance. Because you're actively involved, you gain a better understanding of how the work is developed and how to use and improve it afterwards.
- Direct collaboration with Chris Batten
- Practical guidance and constructive challenge
- Shared project development
- Regular review and feedback
- Learning through participation
- Greater understanding of the finished work
- Stronger capabilities for future projects
- Clear ownership of decisions and approvals
Best for
People who want to remain involved, learn through the process and develop their capabilities while achieving a practical outcome.
Done For You
The work created for you.
Not everyone has the time or capacity to participate directly in developing every element of a project. With Done For You, Chris Batten undertakes the agreed work on your behalf. Following the consultation, the project requirements, deliverables, responsibilities and approval points are established. Chris then creates the agreed work, keeping you informed and seeking your input at appropriate stages.
- Less day-to-day involvement required
- Practical work undertaken by Chris Batten
- Defined outcomes and deliverables
- Clear responsibilities
- Agreed feedback and approval stages
- Regular progress updates
- Suitable for time-poor clients
- Work delivered according to the agreed scope
Best for
Clients who need a particular project or asset created but do not have the time or capacity to participate in its development.
How the Studio Partnership works
From first conversation to finished work
- 01
Apply
Complete a short application outlining the project, your desired outcome and your preferred working approach.
- 02
Consultation
Arrange an online consultation to explore the project, its requirements and the potential working relationship.
- 03
Scope & Proposal
Chris prepares a proposal explaining the recommended approach, work involved, deliverables, responsibilities and indicative schedule.
- 04
Agreement
Review and agree the project scope, price, payment schedule, milestones and terms. No work begins until these have been accepted.
- 05
Project Delivery

- 06
Completion & Handover
Review the completed work, confirm the agreed deliverables and receive any relevant handover information or recommendations.
Every Partnership has a defined purpose, agreed responsibilities and a clear understanding of the work to be delivered.
Pricing & commercial arrangements
The right scope. The right support. An agreed price.
No two Studio Partnership projects are identical. A focused project involving one landing page will have different requirements from a larger project involving multiple offers, funnels, content assets and follow-up systems. For that reason, Studio Partnerships are priced individually.
Following the consultation, Chris will prepare a proposal explaining:
- The intended project outcome
- The proposed scope of work
- The agreed deliverables
- Done With You or Done For You responsibilities
- The proposed timetable and milestones
- The project price
- The payment schedule
- Relevant assumptions and exclusions
Payment arrangements may include agreed stages or milestones, depending on the project. Every project is individually priced and agreed before work begins, and there is no obligation to proceed following the consultation.
Who is it for?
Is a Studio Partnership right for you?
A Studio Partnership is suitable for business owners, consultants, coaches, independent professionals and entrepreneurs who have a project or practical outcome they want to develop. The initial consultation is designed to establish whether the proposed project is suitable — not every application will necessarily lead to a Partnership.
- You have an idea but need help turning it into something practical.
- You want to improve an offer, website, funnel or marketing campaign.
- You need support developing a specific business asset.
- You'd value independent thinking and constructive challenge.
- You want to develop your own skills through collaboration.
- You need a project completed but lack the time or resources.
- You want an agreed outcome rather than an open-ended consultancy arrangement.
Application
Tell me what you want to build
Every useful Partnership begins with understanding what you want to achieve. Tell me a little about the project and the type of help you think you need — we can explore the detail during the consultation.
Questions
Frequently asked
Done With You is a collaborative approach in which you remain actively involved, participate in decisions and develop your own capabilities throughout the project. Done For You means the Studio undertakes the agreed work on your behalf, with your involvement focused on supplying information, feedback and approvals.
Done With You is generally preferred because it combines practical project progress with learning and capability development. However, Done For You can be more suitable when time or capacity is limited.
Every project is priced individually according to its scope, complexity and requirements. You'll receive a written proposal explaining the agreed price and payment schedule before making a commitment.
Partnerships operate around individually agreed projects rather than standard membership contracts. The duration and conditions of each project are confirmed in the written agreement.
No. Studio Partnership services can be arranged independently of Studio membership.
The initial Partnership consultation is an opportunity to explore your project and establish whether working together would be appropriate. There is no project fee payable simply for submitting an application. Any charge for the consultation itself will be clearly disclosed before booking.
If the project is suitable, Chris prepares a proposal outlining the recommended approach, deliverables, project price and payment schedule. You can then decide whether to proceed.
Ownership, usage rights and any relevant third-party licences are confirmed in the project agreement.
Any significant changes to the agreed scope will be discussed and approved before additional work is undertaken.
Have something worth building? Let's explore what's possible.
