Savvy Up is a new release, so bear with us as we get more reviews
Been dipping in and out of this book over the last couple of days, and it’s seriously clever. Every chapter starts with a story that pulls you in and it feels like I’ve lived some of these situations now, which hopefully means I won’t fall for them in real life. I really liked that it’s not just about online scams. It even covers things like dealing with parking fines (had 2 last year, 1 I would have challenged had I had this knowledge).
The self-defence section is brilliant, definitely getting my daughter to do the online course when she’s old enough.
Shame there is nothing in there about dealing with dodgy building regulations, but I guess most people don’t have that as a problem.
Didn’t think I needed this book, but I was wrong. I always thought I was pretty savvy, but this really made me see the gaps. The way it explains scams, manipulation & especially physical threats, just makes so much sense.
The free self-defence course was way better than I expected. I thought it’d be some overcomplicated stuff, but nope, it’s super simple moves that actually work. The author teaches it himself, and it’s really easy to follow.
It’s not just about scams either—this book makes you think smarter about everything. Honestly, some of the stories made me rethink how I deal with people in general.
100% recommend. Even if you think you know it all, you’ll still pick up stuff that’ll make you sharper.

Frequently Asked Questions
I am already savvy. Should I read it?
Of course you are—everyone has savvy! But is your savvy equally strong in all areas of life? The world has changed, and so have the risks we face. Technology, the internet, and artificial intelligence have expanded our exposure to scams, fraud, and manipulation on a global scale. Criminals are evolving, using AI and psychological tactics to outsmart even the most cautious individuals.
Another major shift is the rise of sales psychology. Once designed to help businesses better serve customers, these techniques have been adopted by manipulative individuals, making it easier than ever to influence, deceive, and exploit. Understanding these tactics isn’t just useful—it’s essential.
This book equips you with the knowledge to stay steps ahead, recognise hidden threats, and protect yourself in ways you may not have even considered. Even the most street-smart individuals will find new insights that sharpen their instincts and strengthen their defences. So yes, you should read it!
What age is Savvy Up appropriate for?
Savvy Up is designed for all ages, making it a valuable resource for the entire family. Later this year, we’ll be releasing Savvy Up for Teens, but in the meantime, this edition offers essential lessons that apply to everyone.
For example, online shopping is something we all do, and Chapter 5 provides crucial insights into protecting your data and money from cyber threats. Mobile phone and identity theft affect people of all ages, which is why Chapter 6 walks you through real-world strategies to safeguard yourself (listen to Jessica’s story above).
Home security is another universal concern, and Chapter 9 highlights ways to prevent home invasions. If you or a family member invests or has a pension, Chapters 11 and 12 will help you avoid financial scams. And for everyday financial protection, we cover topics like challenging unfair parking fines and handling mis-sold products.
For those interested in personal safety, Chapter 10 introduces a simple yet powerful approach to self-defence—helping you instinctively avoid getting hit. Plus, you’ll get free lifetime access to an online self-defence course designed to be effective for all skill levels.
Whatever your age or stage in life, Savvy Up equips you to face modern risks with confidence and clarity.
