Takes a minute. Nothing to buy. No commitment to the Audit.
“Challenge Marketing’s team swooped in, understood my business and got on with the review.”
Thomas Buk, CEO, deltaconx
Your first month has one job: intelligence, not output.
You were hired to move fast. The risk is moving fast on assumptions you inherited. The Audit compresses the slow part, so your quick moves rest on evidence.
- ✓You have inherited a brand, a team or a strategy you did not build.
- ✓Everyone expects a view from you soon, and you want it to be right.
- ✓You need evidence you can take to your CEO, not opinion.
- ✓You would rather know what is working before you change anything.

How it works
Three steps. Two weeks. One clear path forward.
- Step 1Free Snapshot
We show you how AI assistants describe your brand. Nothing to buy, nothing to commit to.
- Step 2The Audit: two weeks from the agreed start date
Our specialists review the brand in one sprint. The clock starts when we have what we need from you.
- Step 3Your report and a call
We send you the report to read first. Then some of the team talk you through it on a call, and we send you a final copy, with prioritised recommendations and quick wins you can take to your CEO, your team and your agencies.

“I was amazed at the breadth of things they looked at and some of the feedback was eye-opening!”

Seven questions, answered in two weeks
We don’t just look. We unlock.
Each area is reviewed by a Challenge Marketing expert, supported by AI. Every answer comes with evidence you can show.
Brand and messaging
Does what we say match what people actually believe?
Visual identity
Is our brand appealing to look at, and consistent everywhere?
Content and engagement
How engaging is our content, and does it prompt action?
Website and owned media
Does our website build trust and make the next step easy?
SEO and PPC
Is our search and paid spend earning its place?
Social media
Do our channels sound like us and spark real conversation?
AI visibilityNew
What do AI assistants say about our brand, and is it right?
Something solid to take into the room
You will be asked what you found and what you recommend. You will have a designed report, a call with some of the team to talk it through and prioritised recommendations and quick wins, with the evidence behind each. We report what is working first and frame gaps as inherited, so it is safe to take upward.
