Ehsan's Growth Commentary
The data from 100 companies shows Outbound Sales generates 40% of pipeline for FinTech companies at Series A. But only when implemented with discipline. At this stage, every experiment should run for exactly 2 weeks before evaluation.
FinTech companies at Series A should allocate 15-25% of growth budget to Outbound Sales. Track weekly, evaluate monthly, pivot quarterly. The winning rhythm is 2-week sprints with clear hypotheses.
