Our Story

The Original Ah-Ha Moment

Ah-Ha Marketing was founded in 2016 by Heather Antoinetti, inspired by a simple yet transformative idea: great marketing isn’t about complexity—it’s about clarity, action, and impact. Our mission is to create those unmistakable "Ah-Ha Moments"—the instant when an idea clicks, a strategy aligns, or a message resonates.

Heather’s path into marketing wasn’t traditional. It started with an unexpected opportunity, a bold leap, and a deep dive into the reality of how businesses grow. She quickly learned that marketing isn’t just about creativity—it’s about execution. Imperfect, strategic action beats endless planning every time. That philosophy became a core part of Ah-Ha’s DNA: JFDI—Just F*cking Do It. We believe in testing, learning, refining, and optimizing, ensuring that every action moves the needle.

Today, Ah-Ha Marketing is both a consultancy and a learning hub. We work with founders, executives, and industry leaders to build bold, measurable marketing strategies—and we teach others to do the same. Our courses equip professionals to build personal brands, navigate the zero-click marketing era, and leverage AI to create real impact.

At Ah-Ha, we don’t just develop strategies—we take action and help our clients do the same. Whether we’re crafting campaigns, refining messaging, or coaching professionals on reputation-building, our focus is always on delivering those “Ah-Ha Moments” through strategic, consistent execution.
