The CEO’s Guide to Marketing tip 7: Grade your marketing knowledge

by | Nov 21, 2017 | Advice & Tips

marketing knowledge

I hand out this marketing assessment sheet when I give a talk about my book. I tell the audience members to grade themselves, their internal marketing teams and their agencies. If they score low, they should buy copies of my book and read it until they could teach it. No one should put up with a marketing team that doesn’t score high in every area. See how you do.

Team Assessment

If this tip makes sense to you, you should buy my book. “The CEO’s Guide to Marketing” is the most practical marketing book you will ever read. It outlines a six-step process that will bring clarity to marketing like you’ve never experienced before. It’s literally a step-by-step guide to more leads, higher sales and a stronger brand.

If you are a CEO, marketing manager, writer, graphic designer or anyone else who has a hand in marketing, you need “The CEO’s Guide to Marketing.” I’m not kidding when I say it will make you the smartest marketer in the room. You are going to wish you had this book years ago.

He complains of a stomach ache a lot and I don’t think he likes school much either.”
