Marketing X-Ray · the 5 layers

Which of the 5 layers of your marketing is holding back the other four?

Marketing works in order, and each layer only performs as far as the one below allows. Investing in the wrong layer means paying every month to speed up a problem that sits further down. Ten questions, five minutes, and you leave with your score in each of the five.

01Positioningwho you are the obvious choice for
02Offerwhat you sell, with scope and proof
03Messagehow it’s said to the decision-maker
04Distributionhow you reach them
05Measurementhow you know it worked

Ten questions, two per layer. At the end you get a score for each one and your bottleneck — the layer limiting all the others.

Here’s an example of what you get

02 Offer2.5
03 Message3.5
04 Distribution3.0
05 Measurement4.0

Example. Here the bottleneck is Positioning — and the four layers above it can’t perform beyond what it allows.

It’s not a test. Almost everyone scores low in at least one layer — including companies with strong revenue.

For owners of service businesses with up to ~20 people who already invest in marketing and can’t say what’s paying off.

What happens next

The x-ray shows where it hurts. The conversation shows why.

At the end you get your score and your bottleneck — and you can stop there, at no cost. If you want to go further, book the 30-minute review. It’s free and comes with a promise: I’ll point out at least one cut you can make this week — something already leaving your account without building anything. If I can’t find one, you’ve lost 30 minutes and gained an x-ray.

I take on 3 diagnoses per month, so review slots are limited.
