When selling feels hard. When customer acquisition is slow. When doors don’t seem to open or deals don’t seem to close. When entering a crowded space or chasing after a new crowd.

You need a
6 < word hook.

For over 25 years, I have helped new brands go to market—and established brands enter new verticals, territories, or demographics.

My best advice:
Don’t overcomplicate it.

When you have a product, service, or initiative the world needs, one of the biggest factors for gaining momentum is really quite simple.

A compelling 6< word hook. Targeting a narrow group of early adopters. It’s like a match to kindling. And it’s my work’s passion. Are you ready to get a fire started?

Hook

The

6< Word

A hook translates your competitive advantage into 6 words or less.

Used as a slogan or campaign concept on every piece of communication, it has one superpower: Pulling all tactics and conversations straight to how you are uniquely different.

Lead with why you (while following a few creative rules) and the market will respond.
