Why a marketing book that is mostly worksheets

Most marketing books tell you what good marketing looks like and leave you to work out what it looks like for you. The thinking is the hard part, and the part nobody does.

So this book makes you do it, one page at a time: who you are for, what you promise, what you sell and why you, then what success looks like and what you will say about it. Twenty worksheets, three parts, two outputs you can hand to anyone.

“A must read before you pay a cent for marketing.”
