If you want growth, make sure to stretch

Structured, tech-enabled processes are the cornerstone for scaling partner-led growth.

But there’s a secret ingredient - adaptability!

Embrace the art of flexibility. Don’t be afraid to bend the rules and make exceptions.

You’ll ignite growth, and foster deep relationships and continuous improvement.

Getting this balance right is really, really hard though:

🌪️ Too much "adaptability" leads to chaos.

🗄️ Too much structure means bureaucracy.

Find a balance, but make sure to stretch.

How to leverage the "who" economy

Outbound and inbound aren’t enough to cut through the incessant noise of the market.

Your customers want to do business with someone they can trust.

The dominant question used to be, "How do I solve X?"

Search results used to give helpful information. Now, SEO has been gamed.

People want to know who they can trust 🤷‍♀️.

The question has become, "Who has done this before?"
