Hear what our members think of the CMO Toolkit
“This book and the Club were the missing links to my marketing strategy. Highly recommended”
“[The Ask Almost Anything surgery] was an incredibly useful and valuable session – more than worth the membership fee for this alone!”
Your Questions Answered
Who is this the club for?
This is a subscription for people who do marketing as part of their job. It’s a sleeves up, get it done, space for marketers who want to get more done and feel more confident. It’s all going to make more sense if you’ve read and enjoyed the Watertight Marketing book, as that’s what we’ll be implementing. It’s for all levels of marketers. There are elements valuable for marketing managers, executives and marketing directors.
We do accept marketing coaches, consultants, advisors, agencies or other marketing services suppliers. Since they will be using the materials for their clients, we have different terms. Contact us at hello@watertight-thinking.com for more information.
When can I start?
You can start at any time. All you need to do is fill in the form and then we will let you know what happens next and what you need to do to sign-up and pay. Or, depending on the Level you go for, you can buy off the website. There is a minimum subscription of 12 months.
What if I miss a session?
Some sessions are recorded and added to the CMO Toolkit Vault. We recommend you join the week-long challenges live and take part along with an expert to get the best value, but these are also recorded and added to the Vault.
Can we join as a team?
Yes, absolutely – the Club is great for a team who will get lots from group membership. Additional team members from the same organisation can get access to the same materials as the full paying subscriber at 50% of the published price.
Can I get one to one feedback and support?
There main way to get one-to-one support is to buy add-on coaching sessions as and when you need them. We are also always in and out of the Community, so you’ll get great specific feedback from us and your peers there too.
Also, don’t forget, that with each project resource pack you get 30 mins coaching on how to implement that pack.
Do I have to use everything?
We’ve packed a lot into your subscription. We don’t expect everyone to do everything each month, but the more you do, the more value you get.
How much time will I need to get value from this?
A typical minimum engagement to get value is likely to be 2 or 3 things a month. For instance, that could be::
- Watch or read any single item from The Vault = 10 minutes
- Participate in the Roundtables / Get it Done Day = 6 hours
- Join the monthly Ask [Almost] Anything Session = 90 minutes
We’d also recommend completing one of the week-long challenges each year, which requires 6-8 hours of your time spread across the week. Spend more time if you want to.
Don’t forget you will have at least one project resource pack as part of your subscription; this will take at least 1-2 days to work through and implement. You’d expect to spend at least that time on a strategic project; it’s made easier because you won’t be starting from scratch!
Is this online or in person?
This is all done online, so you can join from wherever you are. Live calls are conducted using the Live Room in the Community or Zoom, and all resources are delivered via your personal login to Watertight Webschool from your desktop or via the app.
When do I receive the Project Resource packs?
If you’ve subscribed at Level 1, you pay up front for the whole year and you will receive your project resource pack immediately. If you’ve subscribed at Level 2 or 3 you will be invoiced quarterly and packs will be released pro rata across the year on payment of the quarterly fee.
What if I want to cancel?
You can cancel your membership at any time via your login. Since this is an annual membership, your access will continue until the end of your membership year. No refunds or part refunds are available. Full terms will be shared on sign-up.
I'm not in the UK, can I join?
If you’re okay to join in with things on London time, we’re happy to have you. The Roundtables and live calls are all within office hours on UK time. If that’s the middle of the night for you, it’s probably not going to work.
