Which concept do you want a deep breakdown of with real examples and case studies?
I’ll cover the most requested one in my next post.

I've helped over 400 businesses with marketing.

Most of them face THIS situation:

They lack clarity about their marketing problems.

As a result, they treat symptoms but not root problems.

- Try new tactics while the target audience is undefined
- Write new headlines with unclear messaging
- Blame tools, tactics, and channels
- Never assess the positioning

They focus on surface-level problems while deeper ones are hurting badly the business. They are changing the color of the wallpaper while the house is built on a ravine.

Sometimes, they even blame external factors:

- "Let's fire the agency, they send poor leads"
- "Our CRM doesn't have the right features"
- "This channel is bad, let's try a new one"

But deeper marketing problems are still here.

And the causes are often the same:

- Too product-centric → "Our product is the best"
- The sunk cost fallacy → "We can't change this now"
- Not enough market-oriented → "The market will adapt"

As a result, product and strategic problems are silently killing the business.

Here's the perfect scenario to move on:

Founder: I did a 2-week meditation retreat in the mountains, my ego has vanished - what should I do now?
Me: Let's analyze the 4 layers of marketing problems:

1. Surface-level Problems

You need to change your copy, channels, tactics, or tools to get more conversions. The criticality level is low, install a backlog and experiment changes.

2. Structural Problems

You need to plan structural changes with a 3-month roadmap. Audit your systems, teams, KPIs, and budget to revamp your marketing system.

3. Strategic Problems

You need to align your business and the market now. Work on your ICP, positioning, offer, and messaging. Each day that passes without addressing this issue, you accumulate marketing debt and diminish the perceived value.

4. Product Problems

You need to rethink your product capability for your target audience. It might be time to focus on a more specific use case or pivot your efforts to solve a stronger PUR problem (painful, urgent, recognized)."
