Certification Programme · The Behavioural Marketer

Build campaigns that move people, not just reach them.

Most campaigns are built to be seen. This programme teaches you to build for behaviour, from the first touchpoint to the moment someone becomes a loyal customer.

  • A method to find and remove the exact barriers stopping people from buying
  • The skill to make your pricing and framing feel compelling, without changing the offer
  • A system to design customer experiences that turn satisfied buyers into loyal ones
  • A complete framework to go from diagnosing why behaviour isn't happening to testing what changes it

Behavioural Marketing Foundations
5 modules · 11 lessons · The psychology of why people buy
Lesson 1: Why people who love your content still don't buy. That gap between interest and action.
Lesson 2: Why most marketing speaks to the wrong part of the brain, not the part that actually makes decisions.
Lesson 3: How to present the same offer in a way that makes it feel significantly more compelling, without changing what you're selling.
Lesson 4: How to write copy that people actually read and remember, because it creates a picture in the mind.
Lesson 5: How to identify who you're really competing against. The answer is rarely the obvious one.
Lesson 6: How to have a conversation with a customer that reveals what they actually want, not what they think you want to hear.
Lesson 7: How to diagnose the real reason people don't buy, using a structured map of what drives and blocks decisions.
Lesson 8: How to remove the specific barriers that stop people from converting. With a real-world case study.
Lesson 9: Why paying for something hurts, and how to design the payment experience so it feels less painful.
Lesson 10: How to make your price feel like a fair deal rather than an obstacle, without discounting.
Lesson 11: How to write a value proposition that removes the last objection and makes buying feel obvious.

Behavioural Marketing Advanced
5 modules · 12 lessons · From diagnosis to interventions that work
Lesson 1: Why understanding a problem is not the same as knowing how to fix it. This course bridges that gap.
Lesson 2: How to use four diagnostic questions to pinpoint exactly why a behaviour isn't happening.
Lesson 3: How to find and remove the hidden friction that stops people from taking action, even when they want to.
Lesson 4: How to boost desire when the product is good but people still don't feel pulled towards buying it.
Lesson 5: How to time your marketing for the moments when people are most likely to act on it.
Lesson 6: How to design experiences that make people want to come back, not just once but repeatedly.
Lesson 7: How to rapidly generate a large range of ideas for solving a behavioural challenge before selecting the best.
Lesson 8: How to organise your ideas across the full customer journey so you fix the right bottleneck first.
Lesson 9: How to validate your ideas before investing in them, using fast, cheap tests that give real evidence.
Lesson 10: How to tell the difference between ethical influence and manipulation. The distinction matters more than most people think.
Lesson 11: How to get colleagues and decision-makers on board by applying the same principles you use on customers.
Lesson 12: How to apply the complete SWAC framework to a real challenge, from diagnosis through to a tested intervention.

6 modules · 12 lessons · Turn satisfied customers into loyal advocates
Lesson 1: Why customers make decisions based on feeling, not logic. That shapes how you design their experience.

Lesson 3: How to uncover what customers truly want: the functional, emotional, and social needs that sit beneath the stated reason.
Lesson 4: How to map all the forces that push customers toward a decision, and the ones holding them back.
Lesson 5: How to identify the specific moments in a journey that shape how customers feel about the whole experience.
Lesson 6: Six ways to make your offer feel more valuable to customers without adding features or lowering prices.
Lesson 7: How people remember experiences, and how to design the moments that define the lasting impression.
Lesson 8: How to identify and eliminate the hidden worries and friction points that quietly stop customers from converting.
Lesson 9: How to map the four hurdles every customer must clear, and where most journeys break down.
Lesson 10: How to design targeted interventions that remove the specific barriers blocking the behaviour you want.
Lesson 11: How to design a low-cost prototype test that proves whether your CX intervention works before you roll it out.
