Ehsan's Growth Commentary
The data from 224 companies shows Marketplace Growth generates 22% of pipeline for Logistics companies at Series C. But only when implemented with discipline. Scale what works, kill what does not. No emotional attachment to channels.
Logistics companies at Series C should allocate 15-25% of growth budget to Marketplace Growth. Track weekly, evaluate monthly, pivot quarterly. The winning rhythm is 2-week sprints with clear hypotheses.
