What the assessment is.

A structured set of questions about how your marketing works today. It covers the same seven dimensions we inspect in every engagement: strategy, data, friction, process, people, technology and communication.

Each dimension gets a level from 1 to 5. The point is to find the weakest link, because the lowest score tends to cap what the rest of your marketing can return, however much you spend on the strong parts.

How long it takes.

A few minutes. The questions ask how your business actually runs, not how much marketing vocabulary you know. Answer from what you know today and guess where you're unsure. We check the details on the call.

What you get.

  • A level from 1 to 5 on each of the seven dimensions.
  • The dimension furthest behind, marked as your starting point.
  • An invitation to a free call to go through your scores with us.
  • A clear first move, whether or not you ever hire us.

What happens after.

Once you see your scores, you can book a free assessment call. We go through your results, ask about your goal and your numbers, and tell you what we'd fix first. If one of our services fits, we say which one and why. If none does, we say that too.

Then you choose your start. Most clients take the Marketing Impact Roadmap, the full inspection that turns your scores into a ranked plan, alone or with installation. Owners who want to run it themselves start with the book and the Academy. After that, you choose how involved we are.

Your data stays yours.

We don't sell your data. We use your answers to produce your scores and, if you book a call, to prepare for it.

Questions

Frequently asked questions.

Is the free marketing assessment really free?

Yes. It costs nothing and commits you to nothing. You get your scores on all seven dimensions either way. The call afterward is free too, and booking it is up to you. There's no obligation to buy anything.

How long does the marketing assessment take?

A few minutes. You answer questions about how your marketing works today, from how you pick your audience to how your team reports results. Answer from what you know. On the call we dig into the numbers and check anything you weren't sure about.

What are the seven dimensions?

Strategy, data, friction, process, people, technology and communication. Together they decide whether marketing spend turns into revenue. A weak score in one tends to hold back the others, which is why the assessment points to the one furthest behind.

What happens on the free assessment call?

We go through your scores, ask about your goal, your numbers and your current team, and give you an honest view of what to fix first. If one of our services fits, we explain which and why. If you'd do better on your own or with someone else, we tell you plainly.

Will you sell or share my information?

No. We never sell it. We use your answers to score the assessment and, if you book a call, to come prepared with questions about your business. The conversation starts from your situation, not a generic pitch.
