Marketing Activation Days

One focused day. One marketing priority. Real progress.

There's always one project you want to get done but for some reason you don't.

You need to refresh your home page but it keeps getting pushed down the list. There's an idea for a campaign but you're not really sure if it has legs. You want to plan out the next 90 days but don't know where to start or what you should be doing. That's the type of thing activation days are good for.

Available online or in person in Sydney.

What the day gives you

Your marketing gets the whole day. Imagine that.

We choose the priority before we start. I do the homework. You stay close enough to answer the useful questions. Then I get my head down and work. Most of the day belongs to making, writing and moving things forward.

01

A clear target

We agree exactly what we’re tackling and what a successful day needs to produce. Everyone knows where we’re heading before the clock starts.

02

A prepared brain

I research your business, audience and existing material ahead of time. I arrive across the details and ready to get into it.

03

Decisions while they’re fresh

We check in when needed, settle questions quickly and keep the work moving. Your project gets momentum without taking over your entire day.

04

Work you can use

You finish with the copy, plan, campaign or agreed deliverable moved forward and ready for its next practical step.

Focused, practical and deeply satisfying. Like closing 14 browser tabs, only more commercially useful.

How it works

We work out the day before the day.

Your Activation Day starts well before 8.30am. I get across the background, we agree what a good result looks like and keep the actual day focused on decisions and delivery.

  1. 01

    Tell me what’s waiting

    Book a quick call or send me an email. Tell me about the project, where it’s up to and what you would love to have moved forward.

  2. 02

    Choose the right day

    I recommend the best format, then we agree on the main priority, realistic deliverables and what I’ll need from you.

  3. 03

    Lock in the date

    You accept the proposal, pay the invoice and receive your briefing questions and shared project space. It’s officially happening.

  4. 04

    I do the homework

    I review your documents, research the background and organise the work. I arrive knowing the project and ready to use the day well.

  5. 05

    We get into it

    We work in the format we’ve chosen. You may join me in the room, or stay available for quick decisions while I write, plan and create.

  6. 06

    Review and refine

    I deliver the agreed work in a clean, useful format. We review it, tidy any included changes and make the next step clear.

Marketing Activation Day FAQs

Questions before we activate?

Fair. Here’s what happens, what fits and how we make good use of the day.

What is a Marketing Activation Day?

A Marketing Activation Day is a focused working day built around one agreed marketing priority. I prepare beforehand, then spend the day writing, planning or creating the agreed work while you stay available for decisions.

What can we work on during the day?

We can tackle website copy, brand messaging, LinkedIn content, campaign planning, email sequences, articles, presentations, capability documents or a practical marketing plan. We choose one main priority before you book.

How much can you complete in one day?

It depends on the complexity of the project and how developed the existing material is. During our first conversation, I’ll recommend a realistic scope and define the deliverables clearly, so we both know what the day needs to do.

Do I need to be available all day?

Your role during a remote Activation Day is to stay reachable for planned check-ins, quick questions and decisions. You can get on with your own work between those touchpoints. A Think Tank Day is a collaborative session, so we work together throughout the day.

What happens before an Activation Day?

We hold a briefing call, agree on the priority and collect the background material I need. I then research your business, review the existing work and plan the day before 8.30am arrives.

What happens after the day?

We meet for a 90-minute review and refine session after the Activation Day. We go through the work, make the agreed refinements and confirm the next practical steps.

Which option should I choose?

Choose a Think Tank Day when you need decisions and a clear plan. Choose an Activation Day when you want one defined project moved forward. Choose the Activation Accelerator when the work needs both strategy and several days of delivery. Tell me what you’re working on and I’ll recommend the best fit.

Are the days online or in person?

Activation Days run remotely. Think Tank Days can run in person in Sydney. We’ll agree on the best format for an Activation Accelerator when we scope the project.

How does payment work?

Prices exclude GST. I send your proposal and invoice after we agree on the scope. Payment secures your date and gives me the go-ahead to begin the preparation.

Could I start with a Borrow my Brain session?

Absolutely. A 90-minute Borrow my Brain session works well when you want to explore one question, sense-check a decision or find the clearest way forward. Book a session here.

What people say

You finish knowing exactly what moved.

The best bit is seeing an idea go from circling your brain to sitting in front of you, clear and usable. Apparently, my clients quite enjoy that too.

I’m all in for my bi-annual Activation Day. It’s hands-down the best strategy day out there.

At the end of the day, I had a clear idea of what my website needed, what to include in my sales pitch, and how to use LinkedIn to generate leads.
