"Going from a company of know-it-alls to a company of test-it-alls—that's really powerful at the organizational level. And it makes people's work so much more meaningful."

With a background in growth marketing and consulting, David has built Growth Tribe into a powerhouse that has trained over 35,000 alumni from 1,000+ companies.

In this episode of Agency Journey, David shares insights on the importance of experimentation, data-informed decision making, and continuous learning in today's fast-paced digital landscape. He emphasizes the value of upskilling teams to drive long-term impact and ROI for organizations.

Whether you're looking to scale your agency, improve your team's capabilities, or foster a culture of experimentation, this episode is packed with actionable advice and fascinating perspectives.

Episode Insights:

💡 Focus on delivering measurable results for clients, considering both quantitative and qualitative/emotional impact.

💡 Use the "five whys" technique in discovery calls to uncover deeper motivations and needs of clients.

💡 Consider offering training as an add-on service to help clients better understand and implement your agency's work.

💡 Adopt an experimentation mindset across your organization using the GROWS framework (Gather ideas, Rank ideas, Outline experiment, Work work work, Study results).

💡 Aim to increase your experimentation velocity by 2-5x to drive faster learning and innovation.

💡 When improving processes or systems, focus on removing complexity rather than always adding new tools or steps.

💡 Surround yourself with "completer finishers" if you tend to be more of an idea generator and fire starter.
