Where Business Leaders Become Chief Profit Engineers

Beyond CEO or CMO. Learn how to be a Chief Profit Engineer who dominates markets systematically.

In 2026, the businesses that win aren’t just well-run—they’re systematically engineered for profit. The Market Domination Institute transforms business leaders into Chief Profit Engineers who don’t guess, don’t hope, and don’t rely on tactics.

We teach you to engineer revenue using The Domination Matrix—9 interconnected marketing domains supercharged with AI through The Domination Engine.


What Is a Chief Profit Engineer?

A Chief Profit Engineer (CPE) is a business leader who:

  • Engineers systems, not runs tactics
  • Masters all 9 domains of The Domination Matrix
  • Uses AI as infrastructure, not as a toy
  • Tests relentlessly to separate what’s foundational from what’s in motion
  • Dominates systematically, predictably, perpetually

Whether you’re a founder, CEO, CMO, or wearing all three hats—becoming a CPE means you architect growth instead of chase it.

Advanced: Domination Labs

Test what works NOW. Learn what stays foundational.

Marketing isn’t static. Some principles are eternal. Others shift monthly. How do you know the difference?

You test.

Domination Labs is modeled after chemistry labs—not theory lectures. You run experiments at your station (your business), document results in your lab book (our shared system), and gather weekly with fellow CPEs and expert TAs to discuss what worked, what didn’t, and why.

How Labs Work:

  1. Weekly Experiments

    • Structured tests across specific domains
    • Clear hypotheses, controlled variables
    • Real campaigns, real data
  2. Lab Documentation

    • Record results in your digital lab book
    • Share anonymized data with the community
    • Build a repository of what actually works
  3. Lab Sessions

    • Weekly group discussions led by expert TAs
    • Deep-dive “office hours” for questions
    • Share insights, learn from peers’ experiments
  4. Domain Specialization

    • Focus on 1-3 domains for deep expertise
    • Earn CPE-D (Domain Specialization) certifications
    • Become the expert in your chosen area

Active Labs (Rotate Quarterly):

  • Neuromarketing & Behavioral Science
  • Zero-Click Content & AI Citation
  • Data Science & Attribution Modeling
  • Creative Systems & Conversion Optimization
  • Strategic Positioning & Market Domination
  • [Additional labs rotate based on market conditions]

What Makes Labs Different:

  • You’re not learning theory—you’re testing in production
  • Community shares real results, not guru promises
  • Learn to distinguish foundational principles from fleeting tactics
  • Build deep expertise in domains that matter to YOUR business

Duration: Ongoing membership (recommended 6-12 months per domain)
Format: Weekly experiments + Weekly lab sessions + Community access
Outcome: CPE-D (Domain Specialization) certifications
Investment: $297/month or $2,997/year
