This is not that. Every week I take the handful of things that genuinely moved, in paid media, AI search and technical SEO, and write down what they mean for what you should do next. Not a roundup of everyone else's takes, not reheated news. One senior view, plainly stated, that you can act on before lunch.
It goes to founders, marketing leads and the people accountable for the result. No content team stands behind it and no model writes it in my name. If you would rather think than scroll, it will save you an afternoon a week.
The senior read,
once a week.
Most marketing newsletters are noise on a schedule. This is not that. Once a week I send a short, considered read on the shifts that actually change what you should do, in paid media, AI search and technical SEO. Filtered, weighted and personally signed off by me.

The latest from the briefing.
Before you subscribe.
How often does it arrive?
Once a week. One considered email, not a daily drip. If a week has nothing worth your time, I would rather send nothing than pad it out.
Who actually writes it?
Nic Crane, personally. There is no content team, no ghostwriter and no automation writing in my name. You are reading one senior view, which is the whole point of it.
Email or LinkedIn?
Whichever you prefer. The same edition goes to inbox subscribers and to the LinkedIn newsletter, and it is published here on the site. Pick the one you already read.
Will you share or sell my email?
No. It is used only to send you the briefing, it is never shared, and you can unsubscribe in one click. How we handle your data is set out in our Privacy Policy.
Is it free?
Yes. The briefing is free. If you want a senior pair of eyes on your own account, that is what the consultancy is for.
