A film studio that builds lead systems

Build your business a predictable lead pipeline that makes you the name Lawrence thinks of first.

Powered on video content and ads.
Proof you track from ad spend to inquiry.

The team behind work for Spotify, Anheuser-Busch, The White House, and the BBC — now building lead systems for Lawrence businesses.

The Gap

Your work is better.
Your competitors are just louder.

— 01

Invisible online

Your reputation was built face-to-face, job by job. But online, the lesser company with the better content wins the search — and gets the call that should have been yours.

— 02

One of five bids

When you arrive by referral, you're the favorite. When you arrive by search, you're a line item — compared on price by someone who has no idea what makes you different.

— 03

Feast or famine

Referrals are real, but some months overflow and others go quiet, and there's nothing you can do but wait for the phone. Call it weather: real, but never something you can plan a business around.

From invisible online to indispensable.

Stop being one of five bids — become the obvious choice.

The Resonate Method

Diagnose first.
Then prove it.

Phase 01

Audit

We look at where you are: how customers find you today, what your competitors are doing, and where the gap actually is. Diagnosis before prescription.

Phase 02

Build

Content engine and inquiry tracking, built on real footage of your work — the system that turns attention into leads.

Phase 03

Deploy

Videos publish on a steady rhythm. Ads (if applicable) go live to the people in your area who are already looking for what you do.

Phase 04

Prove

Every month you see ad spend, leads, and booked business on one dashboard. The system proves itself — or we change it.

Proof

The dashboard makes the case. Every month.

I. Measurement as proof

The system proves itself monthly. You watch ad spend become inquiries and inquiries become booked business — attributed, on one screen, in plain language.

II. Built for the feed

Eight short, frequent videos, built for the feed every month — a different format than a hero film. Want the full cinematic treatment instead? That's a separate offering — see Brand Films.

Many agencies ask for faith. We ask for ninety days and a dashboard.

Why Resonate

National-caliber craft. Now pointed at Lawrence.

Resonate Pictures is run by Marc Havener — a creative who spent a decade in Hollywood on films like Pirates of the Caribbean and Wedding Crashers, followed by twenty years making brands' messages actually move people.

That perspective is the unfair advantage under this offer: the same instinct that earned national awards now points at your business, your team, your customers. Most local businesses don't have this kind of eye on their marketing. Now one does — maybe yours.

Brand Films

When you're ready for the full treatment.

Above the lead system sits the top rung: A Cinematic Brand Film — the kind brands commission when the message has to change what people believe.

Home Field Advantage

We're not managing your account from across the country.

We are here, we are local, and we are genuinely invested in the growth of this community. Our mission is to help Lawrence businesses thrive.

Fair Questions

You've been burned before.
Ask the hard ones.

What if it doesn't work?+

Then the dashboard will say so — and we'll both see it at the same time. That's the point of the Prove phase: no vague "engagement" reports, no hiding. Either way, you'll walk away with a clearer read on your market — and an answer to the "should I even be doing social media" question you've probably been putting off. If the numbers don't make sense for your business, you shouldn't stay, and nothing in our agreement forces you to.

How is ROI actually tracked?+

Every ad dollar routes through channels we can actually attribute — DMs, texts, and emails. You see spend → leads → booked business on one dashboard. When someone reaches out, you'll know exactly what brought them.

What are the contract terms?+

The system needs a build phase to be judged fairly — about ninety days. After that, engagements run month to month. We keep clients with results, not clauses.

Why do I need to sign up for three months?+

Ninety days is roughly what it takes for the system to actually run: time to audit and build, time for the first month of content and ads to publish, and time for ad platforms to get past their early learning phase. Judge it at day thirty and you're judging a system that hasn't finished warming up. After that, it's month to month — no long-term lock-in.

Why won't you be like the last agency that disappointed us?+

Because we don't ask for faith. The monthly numbers say whether it's working. Either the proof is there, or you walk. That's a different kind of deal than you were offered last time.

Do I have to be on camera?+

No — and we won't force it. But if the numbers say being on camera would help, we'll show you why, and coach you through it. We keep it loose; that's our job, not something you need to stress about.

We already get referrals. Why do we need this?+

If your referral pipeline is keeping you as busy as you want to be, you probably wouldn't have read this far. Referrals are the best leads you'll get — and the least predictable. This system doesn't replace them; it makes sure the months they go quiet aren't quiet.

What's the difference between these videos and a brand film?+

Format and purpose. This system runs on short, frequent, feed-native content built from your real jobs, team, and customers — made for consistent visibility and ad performance, not a festival circuit. A brand film is a single, fully-produced cinematic piece built to change how an audience feels about you at a specific moment — a launch, an anniversary, a rebrand. Different tool, different job. See Brand Films for that end of the spectrum.

I need a website too — do you make those?+

Yes — as an add-on to any tier, starting at $4,500 and includes a positioning refresh. Built into the same system as your content and ads, so it reinforces your strategy instead of sitting off on its own.

What kind of business does this work best for?+

Businesses that get compared before they get chosen — where customers research, ask around, or check reviews before booking or buying. If people already choose you the moment they see you, a lead system matters less. If you lose business to competitors with ho-hum work but louder marketing, this is built for you.

We already run a tight operation — why do we need this?+

The way your space looks. The way your team works. The way every detail is handled before a customer notices it. That standard is real, and your best clients feel it immediately. Resonate builds the creative and systems that carry that standard online — so the people who haven't met you yet walk in already trusting you.

Clarity, either way.

A short diagnostic call. We look at where you are, find the gap, and tell you if we think we can close it. If we're not a good fit for each other, we'll know that too.
