Manage episode 501782536 series 3671627
You’ve got client wins, killer results, and happy customers but no case studies to prove it. Why? Because you're too busy, you hate bragging, and you’ve convinced yourself it's a “later” problem. Spoiler: it’s not.
Christopher Tompkins tackles one of marketing’s least sexy but most essential tools, the case study; and shows you how to make them easier, faster, and actually useful. No more soul-sucking wrap-up reports or chasing data from 6 months ago.
You’ll learn why real-time goal-setting is the only way to build case studies that close deals, what KPIs you should be tracking starting today, and how to turn weekly client updates into marketing ammo that actually converts.
This isn’t just about bragging rights, it’s about building proof, trust, and revenue. If you’ve been avoiding your case study backlog, this is your reality check (and your new strategy).

- Why building proof points forward is the smarter move
