BUILD INTERNAL CAPABILITY
Workshops & Training
The strategic frameworks behind our work, taught directly to your leadership team and operators.
WHY IT MATTERS
The frameworks shouldn't live only with us
Strategy that depends on one agency eventually becomes a bottleneck. When your team understands the thinking, how to define an ICP, how to keep messaging aligned, how to govern AI, clarity stops being something you outsource and becomes something you operate.
We teach the methodology so it holds after the engagement ends.
LED BY A PRACTITIONER WHO TEACHES
Taught by someone who teaches this for a living
These aren’t frameworks pulled from a slide deck. Octopus & Son is led by a marketing practitioner who teaches at Mount Royal University and has spoken on marketing strategy for years.
The same thinking that holds up in the classroom and on stage is what your team learns here, grounded in real practice, not theory.
THE PROGRAMS
Pick the depth your team needs
Strategic Intensives
A focused session that aligns leadership on positioning and priorities.

WHAT CHANGES
Capability that stays with your team
- Your team applies the frameworks independently
- Messaging stays consistent as you hire and grow
- AI is used with direction, not just speed
The methodology scales beyond any single engagement, and beyond us.
