From The Growth Operator
The talk
Most growth talks are written by people who have never run a P&L. This one is not.
I have spent a career on the inside of growth across categories most consultants never touch in the same room. Software. Fintech. Non-profit. Home services. The companies I have worked with have collectively generated more than $100M in revenue. The playbook compounds because the principles do not change.. only the surface area does.
This is the operator's stack, all six layers, from someone who runs all six. Sales: the conversation that gets to yes, and how to design a pipeline that does not depend on heroics. Marketing: distribution that compounds, not campaigns that spike. Service: the loyalty math nobody runs. People: what scales after the first ten hires and what does not. Technology: where AI agents finally pay back, where they do not, and which seats they sit in first. Operations: the boring engine room where most companies leak the most.
The deeper version of this talk is built around the gardenpatch playbooks.. a hands-on session that uses the agent-native software suite as the working example. The full-day operator workshop is available for leadership teams that want to walk out with the diagnostic, the gaps, and the next three moves.

Is this the right talk for your room?
Strong fit for audiences past the "what is a CRM" stage who want the unsparing version of how growth actually happens. Especially strong for companies thinking about AI-native operations, and operators tired of consultant theater.
