What each one does

Growth Strategy

  • Defines your North Star metric and maps your customer funnel from acquisition to referral
  • Identifies which growth loop fits your business (viral, content, paid, or sales-driven)
  • Analyzes retention patterns to spot product-market fit issues or activation problems
  • Prioritizes growth experiments using impact, confidence, and ease scoring
  • Designs referral programs and selects the right acquisition channels for your stage

Sales Enablement

  • Builds 10-12 slide pitch decks tailored to different buyer types (technical, economic, champion)
  • Creates scannable one-pagers for post-meeting follow-ups, internal champions, and trade shows
  • Generates objection handling docs with ready responses for price, timing, competition, and status quo concerns
  • Designs ROI calculators and value propositions customized by persona (CTO, VP Sales, CFO, end user)
  • Produces demo scripts and talk tracks that guide reps through product walkthroughs
