Ehsan's Growth Commentary

The data from 235 companies shows Content Marketing generates 28% of pipeline for Logistics companies at Series B. But only when implemented with discipline. Scale what works, kill what does not. No emotional attachment to channels.

Logistics companies at Series B should allocate 15-25% of growth budget to Content Marketing. Track weekly, evaluate monthly, pivot quarterly. The winning rhythm is 2-week sprints with clear hypotheses.
