How it works
Each question asks how true a practice is of your marketing, on a simple four-point scale. Answers are grouped into four dimensions and averaged into a 0–100 score per dimension, then into an overall maturity score and tier.
The result appears instantly: your overall score, a tier, and a bar for each dimension so you can see strengths and gaps at a glance. The full report — a dimension-by-dimension breakdown with a specific next step and the tools that help — is emailed to you.
It is a self-assessment, not a benchmark against others. Its value is as a structured mirror: a fast, honest look at where the biggest opportunities to improve actually are.
Assumptions and limitations
- Scores reflect your own answers, so the result is only as candid as the input. It measures perceived maturity, not audited reality.
- It is a general framework across common marketing dimensions, not a substitute for a tailored audit of your specific situation.
- The dimensions are weighted equally; for your business, one dimension may matter far more than another.
Frequently asked questions
What does the marketing maturity scorecard measure?
It scores four dimensions: measurement (do you know what actually drives results), data foundations (is your first-party data reliable), automation (are repetitive workflows automated and monitored), and AI adoption (are you using AI in measured, ROI-tracked ways). Together they sketch how mature your marketing operation is.
How is the score calculated?
Each answer maps to a value from 0 to 100. Answers are averaged within each dimension, and the four dimension scores are averaged into an overall score, which maps to a tier from Foundational to Leading.
What should I do with my result?
Start with your lowest-scoring dimension — that is usually where the biggest, cheapest improvement is. The emailed report gives a specific next step for each dimension and links the tools that help you act on it.
Is this benchmarked against other companies?
No. It is a self-assessment framework, not a comparison against a dataset of other companies. Its purpose is to structure an honest look at your own strengths and gaps, not to rank you against peers.
Are my answers stored?
The assessment runs in your browser. If you request the emailed report, your email and your dimension scores are stored so the report can be sent and so I understand what is useful — your individual answers are not.
