How should companies think about their growth strategy in the market downturn? Founders must revise their approach and focus on fundamentals: 1. Unit economics 2. Scalability 3. Sustainability The most successful companies will accomplish this by using the PCC growth model 👇🏼

Big news! I've joined @Intro as an expert and opened up my calendar for 1:1 calls. As the first growth lead at multiple high-growth companies (Hulu, Ring, Albert) and a 3x CMO, I’ve built growth engines that have repeatedly scaled recurring revenue startups to major milestones.

At Hulu, we grew the subscription service from 0 to a $500M annualized run rate in two years. At Albert, we ramped ARR 25x (and raised a $50M Series B led by Capital G). During my time as a VC, I worked with 100+ founding teams on GTM strategy, demand gen, and growth execution.

I’ve been obsessed with cars ever since I can remember. So, I'm excited to share that I’m shipping my first product: Bramo, a community for car enthusiasts. 🧵

Similarly I set up a family ERP system for our household Now when my wife wants to spend money, she submits a purchase order approval form. If the proposed spend is above the limit of authority I’ve delegated to her, it gets escalated to me for approval

Founders/growth leads: can you name your biggest growth lever? (Hint: it’s the same for B2C and B2B, startup, scale-up, or enterprise.)

This move shouldn’t surprise anyone who’s been paying attention to Robinhood’s moves. 3% is a strong (temporary?) offer intended to get marketshare. Their acquisition of X1 was a signal that they’re serious about entering the 💳 space.

Companies regularly undermine their growth potential with poor messaging. Today's example: @tixologi, a ticketing platform I just discovered through @howardlindzon's newsletter. Headlines should communicate the value prop. "The future of..." ain't it. Founders, VCs: pls fix 🙏🏼

"The best story wins," as @morganhousel said in his How I Write pod. youtu.be/o84GXnrHdgg?feature… I agree with the general point @thesamparr makes below; ultimately, companies need to craft a compelling story and figure out how to get it out there (distribution) in order to win.

"There is no such thing as information overload…only filter failure." Perfectly stated by @howardlindzon in his newsletter today.
