Effective marketing often begins with a symptom: weak lead generation, under-engaged prospects, or uninspiring messaging. But without digging deeper, many companies jump straight into tactics — emails, ads, automation — without understanding the root cause. Could the misalignment between brand story and strategy be the real issue?

David Meyer stresses the importance of diagnosing the real marketing problem by asking probing questions and uncovering the “why” behind symptoms. He guides companies to align messaging with their vision, values, and customer motivations. Through practical frameworks — like leveraging EOS structure, developing story-driven brand identity, and implementing sales‑ready tactics — David provides a clear pathway from introspection to measurable marketing outcomes.
