Adapting Growth Teams to Evolving Business Needs

As companies scale, growth challenges evolve. Marketing strategies that work early on often lose effectiveness as the business matures. This requires growth teams to adapt their focus and capabilities over time.

We take an agile approach to align our squads to partners' changing needs. As David Manela, Managing Partner, explained:

“The way we approach every single partnership is to deploy the right team at the right time, and deploying the right team at the right time means it is a team that is able to answer the demand of the business today and can start to deploy the playbook that you need for the next six to twelve months.”

We evolve squads to match each phase. For example:

If, in the beginning, the baseline squad was made up of campaign management, CRM management, BI management, creative, executive, product management. As the stakes start to increase, we deploy statisticians, data scientists, backend developers that are able to strengthen the backbone of the squads.

As challenges shift from acquisition to retention and platform optimization, we remix talents and focus areas accordingly.

This flexible team structure enables several benefits:

• Teams Matched to Current Needs
  We reshuffle capabilities to address evolving priorities, ensuring relevance.
• Playbooks Aligned to Future Goals
  Squads balance driving today’s results with building needed capacities.
• Added Analytical Firepower
  As the business matures, we incorporate more technical talent like data scientists.
• Strengthened Infrastructure
  We invest to upgrade underlying data pipes, BI, and tooling.

Continuously realigning teams and focus areas keeps growth engines highly effective over time. What works at $10M rarely scales the same at $100M.
