The beginner’s Guide to Customer Advocacy

A practical workbook for starting your advocacy journey.

Marketing has changed. Today, companies are spending more and getting fewer results. Why? While marketing has become an endless soundtrack of self-serving messages, people are turning to their social circles to get information they actually trust. This leaves brands scrambling to be heard.

There is a way to break through the sound barrier. By building real relationships with customers and investing in their success, you become a key player in their journey. As these mutually-beneficial relationships grow, their stories become the human extension of a brand that disrupts the white noise.

This is customer advocacy. And, this is how you do it.
