About this listen

“…illuminates one of the most misunderstood aspects of launching a company and should allow countless entrepreneurs to sleep better at night.” (Scott Stedman, serial entrepreneur and author of Mouse, A Novel [Greenleaf Book Group])

Before you start your business, before you spend a dime on marketing or hire another brand strategist, you need to consider something: You don’t have a brand.

Everyone from aspiring entrepreneurs to seasoned business titans believes in the power of branding. But the truth is, most businesses, nonprofits, charities, and social movements aren’t brands. They are tattoos.

Unlike market-driven brands, tattoos are mission-driven. And if you have a tattoo, approaching marketing from a brand mindset will prove–inevitably–unsuccessful.

Drawing upon research, psychology, and decades of experience, Tattoos, Not Brands: An Entrepreneur’s Guide to Smart Marketing and Business Building offers an innovative approach to marketing. It includes simple steps to prepare for success and identify the approach to marketing that will best work for you and your vision.

Each chapter concludes with a few simple questions or exercises to help you discover the right tattoo for your business.

In Tattoos, Not Brands, you’ll learn:

  • The tried-and-true foundational basics of marketing and how to make them work for your unique business or endeavor
  • How to identify your tattoo type and how to achieve authenticity with your customers and clients
  • How to show off your tattoo and bring it to market–successfully

Provocative marketing guide

As an introductory marketing text for small businesses, this is a very worthwhile read. Even for someone reasonably well-versed, the author breathes life into well-worn frameworks and offers meaningful new examples. The tattoo vs. brand metaphor is both creative and provocative. Imagining your business persona as a tattoo is a natural way of putting you squarely in the frame of your customer. It's helpful in a way that "brand" is not. The stories of old campaigns that completely reframed messaging in the arts were terrific. To top it off, the prose is well composed. I confidently recommend this book.

A must read for authentic branding

As a marketing consultant with years of experience working on multimillion dollar brands and crafting large scale campaigns, I didn’t think a book could challenge my perspective so deeply. but Tattoos, Not Brands did just that. It’s not just about marketing-it’s about creating something timeless something that resonates so deeply with your audience that it becomes part of their identity.

Even with my background, this book inspired me to rethink how I approach my own projects, including building my own “online tattoo.” It reminds me that authenticity and emotional connection aren’t just buzzwords - They are the foundation of a sustainable brand.

Weather you’re just starting out or a seasoned pro, this book delivers fresh practical insights that stick with you long after you put it down. Highly recommended for anyone serious about creating meaningful impact.
