The confusing thing about the term “Growth Marketing” is that every business wants to grow. Every business wants to acquire new customers, to increase revenue, to measure success in dollar signs year over year. But desire alone does not the growth marketer make. It’s about so much more than that. Yes, you need to acquire customers, but you also need to make acquisition easier. You need to deliver on your promise when they do sign. You need to give them reasons to become avid evangelists for your brand. In this episode of Renegade Marketers Unite, 3 CMOs in very different fields share their unique perspectives on what it means to be a growth marketer, how they’re applying it in the real world, and what success looks like. (Hint: 500% quarterly growth, reducing negative brand sentiment by 90%, etc.) Tune in to hear insights from three all-star Growth Marketing CMOs: Jennifer Houston of D-Wave Systems, Gary Sevounts of Socure, and Katherine Post Calvert of PagerDuty (previously Khoros).
