START WITH A TEAM AUDIT

Find out exactly how good your copywriters really are.

In two weeks, we score every copywriter you have against the standard that separates A+ from D. Then we walk your leadership through the results and our recommendations. So the talent gap you've felt becomes a fact you can act on.

What you get

Five deliverables, built backward from the one that closes the deal.

01
The team scorecard

One composite (1–5) per copywriter, the team average, and the distribution. Gut feeling becomes a number on a page.

02
The capability heatmap

Where your team is strong and weak across the seven capabilities.

03
The binding finding

The single highest-leverage gap, plus the blunt one: whether you measure outcome at all. For most teams, the empty Outcome column is the headline.

04
Individual capability cards

Per copywriter: strengths, gaps and ceiling - how far and how fast each can climb. We report potential against the bar.

05
The path

Gap-to-target: where they are, where elite is and the route between.

The boundary holds here. We provide the bar and the scores. Your org decides who doesn't clear it. The individual cards report capability and ceiling, never a hire/fire verdict.
How the scores are generated

A standardized practical. The same timed exercises for every copywriter.

Comparable across people. Hard to dismiss as taste. A preview of the certification rigor to come. Plus a portfolio review of two to three recent real pieces and observed AI use throughout, because fluency vs. fear is itself a finding.

  1. 01
    Research — themed, sourced message bank from raw inputs (AI permitted and observed)
  2. 02
    Message finding — surface and rank the messages from that bank
  3. 03
    Message mapping — assign messages to an awareness-staged funnel
  4. 04
    Constraint identification — given a brief and an underperforming asset, name the binding constraint
  5. 05
    Solution design — design the response (no prose yet)
  6. 06
    Assembling & writing — write the piece
  7. 07
    Validating & optimizing — read a real test result and say what it means and what to do next
Two-week timeline

Scope to readout in two weeks.

The standardized practical: every copywriter runs the seven timed exercises; portfolios scored in parallel.
Week 2
Calibrate scores against the bar; build the scorecard, heatmap, cards, and verdict.
The readout
A live leadership session — not a PDF in an inbox. We walk the scorecard, the gap, and the path. The readout is the close.
