Get 90% of all my marketing wisdom before I'm off to write my book

Easy as that. All you've gotta do is submit your application before October 10.

That, plus get your boss on board: to fund your marketing education + help you find 8h/week of audit writing time for a 6-week period.


A bit of background

On Friday, I sent the last Marketing Fix newsletter – for the next two years or forever. Read the full dispatch here.

TL; DR: I'm leaving the tech world to focus on my debut novel.

But before I go, I'm doing one last run of the popular 6-week DIY marketing audit course.

The course begins on October 22, 2025 and is limited to 15 hand-picked participants. (Hence, the application. It takes just 3 minutes to fill in.)

Marketing audits have been my bread & butter for the past 10 years. While I certainly didn't invent the audit format, I humbly feel that I developed the concept further for thousands of marketers.

Like when writing 20+ marketing audits throughout my career...

Like when sharing the free 80 Marketing Audit Questions Notion Library

Like when teaching the DIY audit course in February 2025 and hearing from the participants that it was even more insightful, challenging, and useful than they'd expected. (See the course page to read their feedback.)


Need a little extra nudge?

Let’s face it… You’ll never write your 1st marketing audit all alone.

Here are five reasons why it will be the best marketing investment in preparation for 2026.

  1. You will actually push through and write that 60+ page 360-degree audit + 12-month marketing plan, thanks to six weeks of LIVE sessions and community support. Result: Clear marketing vision for 2026.
  2. You will learn an invaluable skill from a top expert who's written 20+ marketing audits for B2B and B2C companies. Result: A big step up your career ladder.
  3. You will discover inefficient marketing channels & time-wasters to cut. Result: Saving thousands of €€€ of your 2026 marketing budget / spending it on higher-ROI channels.
  4. You will receive personal feedback (I spend at least 30min each week on reviewing your audit progress) + expert recommendations to explore further. Result: Your audit will be 10x more insightful than when doing it alone.
  5. You'll get my personal advice on a 1:1 call at the end of the course, and I'll help to prioritise & plan your marketing plan. Result: You'll feel 100% confident about your next 6-12 months' marketing strategy.

Sounds like a pretty good value offer, no?

In fact, it's 75% off my regular marketing audit fee.

AND by doing the course, you'll be able to do marketing audits on your own for the rest of your career.

Get your boss on board, and finish 2025 with an in-depth marketing audit and a solid next 12months marketing plan.

See you in the first LIVE session!

Goodbye to all that marketing This issue of Marketing Fix is about me leaving marketing to write some books, and your last chance to learn from me before I'm off. "Goodbye to All That" is the title of an autobiographical essay by Joan Didion. While I share very little of Didion's sentimental outlook at leaving New York in the mid-1960s, I've always felt a strong affinity with the essay's title. I've always been one to say adieu: to projects and jobs, to places and dreams. And now, it's time...

Hello marketers! And bye, for I'm off for a 2-month vacation to rest, read, and recover. This far, summer in London has been a balancing act between marketing consulting, audits, and interviews vs writing, literary events, and art exhibitions. All of it during a way-too-long heatwave. I feel like a character from one of my recent prose poems who "creaks like a little door greatly unhinged." As this newsletter lands in your inbox, I'll be walking along the far west coast at St Ives. As of next...
