I created Exit Five to help you build a successful career in B2B marketing.

First it was my 'private' podcast on Patreon talking about my lessons and learnings from PR intern to CMO.

Then it morphed into a Facebook Group and quickly became one of the top resources for marketers…

You attract the right audience by writing about topics that audience cares about.

It's not because of the ad targeting or personalization.

It's the content.

Over the last year we've generated $1M+ in sponsorship revenue.

100% of it has come inbound.

I don't expect it to last for ever, but it sure does make things either.

No outbound. No growth hacking. Just a brand + an audience.

Pretty neat.

PS. Get the audiobook because I did it in 2 days with a daycare…

Over the past week we decided to X three new business ideas in favor of tripling down on what is already working.

I'm not immune to this.

It still happens all the time. A new idea pops up. A new possibility creeps in.
