All Things Growth and Marketing

Every company wants a “strategic” product marketer, but not many know what that actually means. You can ship launch decks, update competitor comparison sheets, and still have zero influence on profit and loss.

Most product marketers are stuck in launch mode and never make it past messaging. Real product marketing starts after launch; when the market responds, when your GTM strategy gets tested, and when you have to adapt fast or get buried.

We’ve talked to dozens of marketers who’ve hit the same wall: campaigns keep running, but growth stalls. They’re great at execution (ads, email, analytics), but they can’t seem to turn that activity into compounding results.

That’s because growth isn’t a set of tactics—it’s a system. One built on experimentation, loops, and cross-channel collaboration.

Most email marketing courses still teach the easy part: sending campaigns, testing subject lines, and reading basic engagement metrics.

The harder part is building email into a channel that actually drives revenue. The latest email marketing data puts ROI at 10:1 to 36:1, with top-performing programs exceeding 50:1. Yet only 13% of teams use advanced personalization, despite 93% saying personalization improves leads or purchases.

Most product teams claim to be “data-driven.” Most are lying to themselves. They’re not driven by data; they’re driven by dashboards they don’t understand and metrics that don’t move the business.

The skill gap isn’t in collecting data or analytics tools; it’s in the ability to translate data into product growth.

Marketing is getting harder—not incrementally, but exponentially.

Old levers like ads, SEO, and gated reports are losing their pull. LinkedIn clicks cost a small fortune, and search has become an echo chamber of vendor bias.

By 2026, your biggest growth lever won’t be more ad spend or gated PDFs. Ambassador marketing turns the people buyers already trust into a living, breathing distribution engine.

This is the next evolution of performance marketing, rebuilt around credibility.

Most marketers burn half their LinkedIn budget trying to buy attention. They optimize for impressions, clicks, and engagement or metrics that look good in dashboards but don’t build pipeline.

The best advertisers treat every campaign as an experiment and every dollar as a data point—every test feeds a repeatable framework for growth.

Everyone loves the idea of “1:1 personalized experiences.” Until they realize each one takes 10 hours, five approvals, and half the marketing team’s sanity.

The problem isn’t effort. It’s how teams apply effort. Most marketers try to scale 1:1 by producing more content instead of building smarter systems with tighter targeting and sharper execution.

Meta ads are getting more expensive, and the platform is cracking down on the tactics advertisers used to pull.

Meta’s own numbers show it. In Q2 2026, the average price per ad rose 12% year over year, the second straight quarter at that rate, while impression growth cooled to 14% from 19% in Q1. Inventory is expanding more slowly and clearing at higher prices.

At the same time, broad targeting and automated placements have absorbed most of the manual work. Audience construction, the skill that used to separate good media buyers from bad ones, matters less every quarter.
