In this episode, John hangs out with recovering in-house marketer, now founder of Growth Sprints, Brendan Hufford. In the past, Hufford worked in both growth and SEO for companies like ActiveCampaign. Now, he works with SaaS companies to help take them grow through short, focused sprints using his SaaS Growth Sprint framework.

Discussed in this episode:

  • Navigating bureaucracy requires understanding the value of stair stepping and starting with a V1, V2, V3 approach.
  • Transitioning from one career to another often involves taking a step back to gain momentum and escape toxic work environments.
  • Creating a personal brand and consistently producing content can lead to opportunities and growth.
  • Bigger companies often undervalue creative work and prioritize numbers and politicking.
  • The role of individual contributors who have an audience that aligns with the company's audience is highly valuable.
  • Why companies should embrace creators who can not only create content but also contribute to the company's growth.
  • Being interested in your audience and sharing interesting stories and experiences is more compelling than generic content.
  • Traditional keyword research is becoming less effective, and unique angles in content are more important.
