How to Become THE Apex Marketer (7 Evolutionary Principles)

Download MP3
I've just launched a new YouTube channel!! The concept? I take real businesses struggling to stand the f*ck out, provide my positioning/branding/lead gen help, and record it all for YouTube. The first mini-series features three freelance marketers (copywriter Rob, ecommerce designer Laura, and non-fiction book coach Vicky).

I hope you'll set aside half an hour to watch it through. Maybe with your morning coffee? Or lunch break? Or evening onion soup? And then, the usual "Subscribe, Like, Share" would go a long, long way too.


Ditch the jargon jambalaya and grab your mental machetes. We're hacking our way to the primal, thumping core of what your people crave.

Tim Ash's a wizard at excavating deep-rooted instincts through evolutionary psychology and weaving them into marketing that works. Strap in for a wild ride to your niche, where we strip back the fluff and awaken the ancient sales tactics lying dormant within us. It's time to become the Apex Marketer.
