Case Study Partner Opportunity

3 Videos. One Morning.
£225. Seriously.

I've built something I'm genuinely proud of. It's called The Friction Fix — a video package designed specifically for coaches and consultants who want their website to do a much better job of building trust and converting visitors into booked calls.

But this is new. And no matter how good the work is, people understandably want to see proof before they invest. That's where you come in.

The Honest Truth

I Need Proof. You Need Videos.
Everybody Wins.

I'm looking for 2 or 3 coaches or consultants in the Newcastle area to be my founding case study partners.

You get The Friction Fix at a fraction of the normal price. I get to document the whole thing — the before, the process, the results — so future clients can see exactly what this looks like in practice.

🎥

What you get

The complete Friction Fix package — 3 strategic videos, professionally produced — at a case study partner price of £225 instead of £750.

📋

What I get

Your story, your results, and your honest experience — documented properly so future clients can see exactly what the Friction Fix does in the real world.

Think of it as a collaboration. You help me build my proof. I help you build trust with every person who visits your website. Everybody wins.
The Problem

Here's What's Happening on Most Coaching Websites Right Now.

Someone finds you. Maybe through LinkedIn, maybe through Google, maybe through a referral. They click through to your website. They have a look around. And then three pages let them down in exactly the same way:

📷

Your About page

Gives them a paragraph of text and maybe a headshot from three years ago. They think: "Seems alright, but I don't really get a feel for this person."

📄

Your Services page

Lists what you do but doesn't really help them figure out if it's right for them. They think: "This could be great, or it could be a waste of my time. Hard to tell."

📋

Your booking page

Presents them with a form and the words "Get in touch." They think: "What actually happens if I fill this in? Will I get bombarded? Will I be trapped in a sales funnel for eternity?"

So they close the tab. And they were this close to becoming a client.

The Friction Fix puts a video on each of those three pages.
The 3 Videos

What You Actually Get

Not random marketing videos. Not a moody brand film set to piano music. Three specific, strategic videos — each one designed to answer a real question your prospects are already asking.

🎬
Goes on: Your About page + email signature

Video 1: The "Why I Do This" Video

I'll ask you questions on camera — about why you started your business, who you love working with, and what gets you out of bed in the morning. No script. No teleprompter. Just a real conversation that lets your personality come through.

🔧

The shift it creates: A stranger goes from "I might book a call" to "I'm definitely booking a call."

🎬
Goes on: Your Services page

Video 2: The "Is This Right For You?" Video

We'll cover who your service is for, who it's honestly not for, what the process looks like, and what people should expect. Straight to camera. Clear. Honest. Human.

🔧

The shift it creates: People who book a call already know they're a good fit — fewer wasted calls, more calls that lead somewhere.

🎬
Goes on: Your booking or contact page

Video 3: The "Welcome to the Conversation" Video

30 to 60 seconds. You welcome them, tell them exactly what happens after they hit submit, and reassure them this isn't a trap. Simple. Warm. Surprisingly powerful.

🔧

The shift it creates: Turns your booking page from a cold transaction into a warm handshake. Stops people hovering over the submit button — and gets them clicking it.

Together They Create a Trust Path Across Your Entire Website

I need 2–3 well-documented case studies to prove what the Friction Fix can do. Your story is genuinely valuable to me — which is why I'm making this genuinely affordable for you.

  • A 30-minute fit check call — no awkward sales pitch, just a friendly chat to make sure we're right for each other
  • Custom question frameworks for all 3 videos — conversation guides, not rigid scripts
  • Half-morning shoot at your location — within 30 miles of Newcastle, wherever you feel most comfortable
  • 3 professionally edited videos with captions, your branding, and a thumbnail for each — ready to upload
  • A deployment guide — one page that tells you exactly which video goes where and why. No guesswork.
  • 1 round of revisions — if something's not quite right, we'll sort it
The Honest Bit

What I Need From You

This isn't a freebie. And it's not just a discount for the sake of it. I need genuine commitment from every case study partner. Here's what that means in real terms:

Put the videos live within 48 hours of receiving them

Not next month. Not "when the new website's ready." Within 48 hours. Momentum matters — and the sooner they're up, the sooner they're working for you.

📊
Keep an eye on what happens over 30 days

I'm not asking you to become a data scientist. Just pay attention. Are more people booking calls? Do prospects say things like "I watched your video" or "I feel like I already know you"? I'll give you a simple tracking template — about 2 minutes a week.

🎤
Film a short video testimonial at 30 days

Same relaxed approach. I'll ask you a few questions about the experience and the results, and you answer honestly. Even if the results aren't earth-shattering — honesty is more valuable than hype. Takes about 15 minutes.

Give me permission to use your story

Your name, your business, before-and-after screenshots, clips from your videos, your testimonial, and your results — across the Friction Point Video website, social media, and marketing materials.

I'm only taking 2 or 3 partners.

This isn't artificial scarcity. I physically can only do 2 or 3 of these properly while also building the rest of my business. Each case study needs my full attention. Once the spots are filled, they're filled. I won't be rerunning this at this price.

Is This Right For You?

Let's Be Straight With Each Other

✅ This IS for you if…

You're a coach, consultant, or solo service provider
You're within about 30 miles of Newcastle (Berwick to Middlesbrough, coast to Hexham)
You have a website with little or no video on it
You have some traffic, leads, or audience coming in — even if modest
You rely on discovery calls or consultations to win clients
You're genuinely up for committing to the process and seeing it through

❌ This is NOT for you if…

You don't have a website yet, or yours is still a work in progress
You're not willing to be on camera — the Friction Fix only works with real humans being genuinely themselves
You're mainly interested in cheap video and aren't fussed about the process — this is a partnership, not a bargain bin
You need animated explainers, motion graphics, or cinematic brand films
The Process

How It Works

Deliberately simple. Significantly less stressful than you probably imagined.

1

Fill in the Friction Fix Scorecard

Significantly easier than assembling flat-pack furniture. It takes 2 minutes and tells you immediately how your website scores for trust, clarity, and conversion readiness.

2

If you're a good fit, I'll invite you to a 30-minute call

Just a friendly chat to make sure we're right for each other. If we're not, I'll tell you honestly and probably point you somewhere more useful.

3

You pay £225, I prepare your question frameworks, we book your shoot

Once we're both happy, that's it. No lengthy onboarding. No paperwork mountain. Just a date in the diary and a plan.

4

I come to you for a morning. We film all 3 videos.

It's relaxed, it's conversational, and most people are surprised by how much they enjoy it. (Genuinely. I'm not just saying that.)

5

Your 3 finished videos land in your inbox within 7 days

With a deployment guide telling you exactly what goes where. No guesswork, no head-scratching.

6

You put them live. We watch what happens. Then we film your testimonial.

About 30 days after going live, we catch up and film a short honest testimonial about your experience and results. Done. Dusted.

Done. Dusted. Significantly less stressful than you probably imagined.
Who's Behind the Camera?
Mark Orr — Founder, Friction Point Video
Mark Orr
Founder, Friction Point Video

I've been working with video for over 40 years — and I've spent the last several years increasingly frustrated watching businesses pour money into videos that look great and achieve absolutely nothing.

Then AI video generation arrived, and something clicked. When anyone can generate a "professional" video from a text prompt, what becomes genuinely valuable? Being real. Being human. Being the actual person your clients will work with.

The Friction Fix is the fastest way I know to make that happen for coaches and consultants. And I'd love to prove it — with your help.

📖 Built on Marcus Sheridan's philosophyEndless Customers and The Visual Sale. The businesses that win answer their buyers' hardest questions with total honesty. On camera. No teleprompters. Just real people being genuinely helpful.
FAQ

Questions You're Probably Thinking

"What if I'm awkward on camera?" +

You're probably not. Almost everyone thinks they will be, and almost everyone is pleasantly surprised. I don't use scripts or teleprompters — I just ask you questions and we have a chat. The best you on camera is the real you, and my entire job is to create the conditions where that happens naturally.

"What if the results aren't amazing?" +

Still a valuable case study. Honestly, I'm not looking for miraculous overnight transformations. I'm looking for genuine, honest documentation of what happens when a coach or consultant puts strategic video on their website. If the results are modest, that's still useful. If they're brilliant, even better. Authenticity beats hype every time.

"Can I see examples of your previous work?" +

This is literally why I'm doing the case studies. Bit of a chicken-and-egg situation — I'll admit that openly. But you can get a strong sense of my approach and philosophy across this website and my LinkedIn profile. And on our fit check call, I'll walk you through exactly what to expect.

"Do I own the videos?" +

The videos are yours. Forever. Use them, share them, love them. If you want to make more videos or move to a monthly arrangement down the line, we can absolutely talk about that — but there is zero pressure and zero obligation.

"I'm slightly outside the 30-mile radius. Can we still talk?" +

Possibly. Apply anyway and let's have the conversation. If it's a little further out, we can usually figure something out — I'll just be upfront about any additional costs. No surprises.
