Marketing advice you can actually use

No agency pitch. No jargon. Just plain-English breakdowns of what actually works — straight to your inbox every week.

Why The Marketing Fish exists

Most marketing content is written for people who already know marketing.

If you’re running a small business, that leaves you stuck. Either you wade through jargon trying to figure out what half of it means, or you hand your budget to an agency and hope they’re not wasting it.

The Marketing Fish exists to fix that. Every issue is a short, practical breakdown of one real marketing topic — written so you don’t need a background in advertising to understand it, act on it, or use it to make smarter decisions about your business.

What to expect

Every week, one issue. One topic. No fluff.

We cover the things small business owners actually ask about — how ads work, what to check before spending money, why some campaigns fail and others don’t, and how to tell if the marketing you’re paying for is actually doing anything.

No services to upsell. No “book a call.” Occasionally we’ll recommend a tool we actually use and trust — and when we do, you’ll know.
