Ehsan's Growth Commentary

In my experience advising HealthTech companies, Marketplace Growth at Series B is a critical growth lever that deserves dedicated resources. The mistake is treating it as a project rather than a process. Build the team, build the dashboard, then build the machine.

For 30-80 people teams: assign one person to own Marketplace Growth end-to-end. Shared ownership means zero accountability. Hire a specialist with industry experience.
