A quick check before you hit publish
Before you publish a piece of marketing, try this 30-second check: 1. Who is this for? 2. What’s the one thing you want them to do next? 3. Can they spot that next step without hunting for it? If the answer to the last one is no, simplify the call to action and remove any competing asks. The Marketing Common Room is a free space for business owners, creators and marketers to work on practical marketing, share drafts and get feedback. Bring a real piece of work you’re unsure about, and lend someone else a fresh pair of eyes too. Join here: https://www.skool.com/marketing-common-room/about?ref=6da1acdc07a848ff9da2a8e63f9607a9

Free workshop tonight at 7pm UK time!
Naomi and Lester from The Net Studios are joining us in The Marketing Common Room for Branding Beyond Visuals. We’ll look at what keeps people coming back to the brands they love, then use a worksheet to audit our own brands and choose one practical change to make. There’ll be time for questions too. The community is free to join, and the workshop is happening inside it. Come along!

A customer's exact words can be your best first draft
Next time someone describes the problem they want solved, note the words they actually use. Try using that phrase in the first line of your offer or post, then explain in plain language what you help them do. It gives you something concrete to test, instead of polishing a headline built around internal jargon. In The Marketing Common Room, we work through real marketing drafts and exchange practical feedback. It’s free, and it’s for business owners, creators and marketers. Bring one message you’re working on and the phrase you want to build it around: https://www.skool.com/marketing-common-room/about?ref=6da1acdc07a848ff9da2a8e63f9607a9

2 communities I built because I'm lazy
I took a lot of courses, tried plenty of frameworks, watched too many videos and got nowhere. I have tutorial hell trauma. So I don't care about courses and frameworks on skool, I can't stand most classrooms. I care about building stuff, validating it and meeting new interesting people. If I need to learn something, I ask the right questions at the right place. Sometimes it's AI because it's quicker. Other times AI is too stupid and I go for human feedback. So I created Roast & Promote a place where I can just make a post and get instant feedback on what I'm building. Cool, right? But sometimes I need more than just feedback. I need someone to listen to my strugle and help me plan my next step to get unstuck. To figure out what I could do to grow my busiiness right now. And most of the times, the solution for that is being presented at one more framework, long video courses or locked behind a secret mastermind. Well, I'm tired of that, I just want a community to talk business stuff without pushing another secret formula that problably doesn't fit what I'm building. A place where we can just focus on getting shit done without having to learn another gimmick, a place with just interactions between entrepeneurs and not more content to consume. > This place! <

“Tutorial hell trauma” is a very good description, @Paulo Costa, The Roaster 😂 The clearest difference in what you’re building is the loop: bring a real problem, work on it with other people, then return with evidence and the next question. Making that loop explicit on each community’s About page would turn the anti-course position into something prospective members can picture themselves doing.
Your draft is now called FINAL_final_v7. Time for another pair of eyes? 😂
You’ve changed the headline. Changed it back. Made a cup of tea. Somehow, the tea is the only thing that’s finished. Bring the draft into The Marketing Common Room. It’s my free community for business owners, creators and marketers to learn practical marketing, test ideas and exchange constructive feedback. Share what you’re working on, who it’s for and the bit you’re stuck on. An offer, a website page, your next post. It doesn’t need to be polished before someone else sees it.
