What is the ASES Method?

By Jose Santiago Mateos, founder of AsesMarket · Updated October 2026

The ASES Method is how AsesMarket works: four phases — Analyse, Signal, Express and Sustain — that take a business from unknown to recognisable on the street, on Google and on mobile. The first three build the foundations in about five weeks: understanding the business, finding what makes it different and turning that into an identity and campaigns. The fourth keeps it alive every month with social media, ads and reviews, measuring what works.

Why it works

  1. Understand firstWe don't design anything without understanding your business and your competitors.
  2. One single ideaThe same message on the street, on Google and on social media.
  3. Measure and adjustEvery month we look at what works and change what doesn't.

Who it's for

  • Businesses starting out that want to do it properly from the beginning.
  • Established businesses that need updating.
  • Businesses already doing marketing but without a clear direction.

Frequently asked questions

The questions we're asked most about how we work.

01

How long does the ASES Method take?

The first three phases take about five weeks: Analyse in the first, Signal in the second and Express from the third to the fifth. Sustain is monthly.

02

How much does it cost?

Each phase and each service has a fixed price, which we give you before we start, after a 30-minute call.

03

Can I hire just one phase?

Yes. If you already have a brand, for example, you can start with Express or Sustain. We recommend at least a short analysis to get it right.

What if I don't like what you propose?

In the Signal phase we validate the proposal with you in a session, and in Express there are two rounds of changes. Nothing goes out without your approval.

05

What do I need to provide?

An initial meeting, access to your profiles, a session to sign off the strategy, reviewing the designs and, each month, telling us what's new in your business.

06

Do you work in Catalan?

Yes. We work and deliver in Spanish and Catalan.

Shall we start with the A?
