More Innovation, Less Frustration

What’s the biggest threat to Lifecycle Marketers today? 

The scope is HUGE and teams are lean. Plus, priorities are always shifting, so driving impact across the entire lifecycle is a moving target. 

So, Let's Improve Your Prioritization Habits & Increase Your Tempo

I'll teach you how to design and build a scalable lifecycle marketing foundation across all areas: activation, engagement, monetization, winback, sentiment, etc without losing sight of the big picture. 

By Simplifying the Complexity

I'll share practical frameworks and methods that I've developed and used over and over again with clients when building out their programs.

You'll learn how to set success metrics, decide on channels, and then how to effectively force rank your ideas so you are optimizing for true business impact.

And finally, after organizing what needs to be done, we will focus on how to quickly implement all of your ideas in production (without killing yourself) and when and how to effectively run A/B tests to maximize potential learnings and impact.


I’ve converted my 4.6/5 star rated Maven Course to a recorded, self-led version, like a Masterclass. Packed with all the same frameworks, lectures, and demos—take it at your own pace. You can also add on 1:1 time with me (Drew) via the coaching package.

Justin Setzer, Co-Founder & CEO at Demand Curve

“Drew is the most knowledgeable Lifecycle Marketer I’ve ever met. I witnessed his impact at Grammarly and he is our go-to expert at Demand Curve for anything lifecycle marketing related.”

What you’ll get out of this course

Become a Master at Zooming Out and Designing Multiple Lifecycle Lanes (and Channels) at Once

You'll learn a practical & proven approach that Drew uses for his own clients to plot out programs and automations for activation, retention, engagement, monetization, winback and any other lanes you desire, without skipping a beat.

Get Better at Prioritization and Estimating Impact

It's one thing to come up with a bunch of ideas. It's another thing altogether to scrutinize those ideas based on projected level of impact. I'll help you avoid making poor investments and ensure the cream rises to the top.

Stress Test How Quickly Your Team Can Create & Implement a Large Scope of Work

In an ideal world, you have a lead DRI for strategy, copy, design, and implementation. In reality, there could be as few as two-three of you wearing multiple hats. Either way, this course will create a new muscle and help you see what you're truly made of.

Improve Results & Learnings w/Only 10% More Effort on the Creative & Automation Side

There are a few practical, low-effort tips we'll go over that bake in AB testing from the get-go. This approach will increase learnings and help you combine foundation building with optimization in one track of work.

If you or your team are responsible for building and improving any of the following lanes, channels, and metrics at the bottom of the funnel, this course is built for you:

  • Activation

  • Engagement

  • Retention

  • Monetization

  • Email, Push, In-Product Messaging, & SMS

  • Journeys/flows/nudges

If you only focus on one channel (ex: email) and just a single program like a newsletter then please only take this course if you are looking to take the next step in your career and broaden out your understanding of how to attack a much larger scope.
