I’m a serial entrepreneur and award-winning speaker
on a mission to outsmart the competition, break
boundaries, and make results happen.
With a commerce/law degree under my belt, I’ve taken
some wild detours — street performing, TV
presenting, stand-up comedy, and even running away
with the circus. These offbeat experiences fuel my
high-energy, no-BS presentations, blending rock-
solid strategy with hands-on workshops and a dash
of 'Who’s Line Is It Anyway?' flair.
With 20+ years of experience running million-dollar
campaigns for billion-dollar brands, I’m in the trenches
every day, helping Australia’s biggest brands stay
sharp and in action.
Now, it’s your turn.
Predatory Marketing Strikes Back
In today’s cutthroat market, tightening up
your messaging is the only way to win.
Who’s got your money, and how do you
win it back? In a zero-sum game, only the
bold survive, and a sharp, predatory
approach is the great equaliser that lets
you go head-to-head with the giants.
Outsmart vs Outspend
Dive into the nuts and bolts of setting up
and managing marketing that actually
drives growth. Packed with the latest
global research on effectiveness, if you're
not doing this, you're either stagnating or,
worse, flushing money and opportunities
down the drain.
Next Horizon Thinking
In markets with low organic growth,
members need to start looking to new
horizons with new ways of thinking and
new places to look for opportunities. The
session intends to open up minds from a
disruptor’s perspective.
TESTIMONIALS
This Could Be You
We hired Ashton for a series of masterclasses on communication, which spanned several days of a recent conference. He delivered an outstanding series of high-energy, thought-provoking, and highly educational seminars.
The feedback from the audience was a 10/10, and he was
unanimously voted as a speaker we'll be inviting back again. I certainly recommend him as a highly engaging speaker with a very unique range of speaking topics and value.
CAMBELL HOLT
Head of Commercial Growth | APAC | SEEK
I’ve been part of many sessions with Ashton over the years, from facilitating mass 300-person online ideation sessions to small group capability masterclasses on strategy.
He’s got
a unique ability to work with a brief to deliver content relevant to our organisation in a challenging yet collaborative way. Over multiple sessions, over almost a decade now, he keeps it fun and fresh. I look forward to our continued collaboration and recommend him as a speaker and facilitator for your next event.
TAMARA TING
ANZ | Head of Marketing, Strategic Partnerships
I have hired Ashton multiple times in the last decade to lead various teams through the Leader’s Mindset to prime them to think beyond where the businesses are today. We have worked together to define new business models and what needs to be true to execute.
A core part of the magic when Ashton is facilitating is how
he pushes thinking and ideation into new places. He has powerful presence and command. I consider him
an expansive thought partner who I know I will work with again.

I am writing to recommend Mr. Ashton Bishop, who presented at our PVC AUS 2024: Future Driven Conference. Ashton delivered an exceptional presentation titled “Predatory Strikes Back”, which garnered overwhelmingly positive feedback from our attendees.
Ashton’s presentation was not only innovative but also featured insightful perspectives that
sparked thought-provoking discussions about the future of our industry. His dedication to sharing his knowledge and experiences truly set him apart and contributed significantly to the conference’s success.
