Your ScoreWhat it says about you
0-25Erm, I think you might be in the wrong profession. Maybe you could be a used car salesman instead?
30-50You are on the right path, young Jedi, but you should pay a bit more attention in class. I’d recommend you start with the posts listed below to bump up your skill levels.
55-75Pretty darn decent! Well, that’s the cup-half-full version anyway. The bad part is that if you’re on the lower end of the scale here, you’re only really half a marketer. Just keep your score away from your boss.
80-100You’re not having my job okay! Stay where you are and be brilliant for someone else. Wait, want a job at Unbounce?
