Paid marketing addiction

Having worked for many years at adtech company now, i can really resonate with this piece of advise. Many of the growth experts in India know growth only by spending on affiliates, google and facebook. Sucks! how can we improve this?

Nothing kills a brand faster than a bunch of idiots in revenue and marketing (and CEO) who are hooked on to performance marketing because oh it's deterministic not probabilistic. Some of them know what they're doing, some of them really believe that they're doing the company good.

Do Marketing Teams Actually Do Anything ?

I’m really curious to know what exactly the Marketing Team does cause in the previous two organisations that I worked at , The Marketing Dept was kinda meh. So I wanted to know if it’s the case everywhere or does an actual good Marketing Team exist as the ones I’ve interacted with their lead generation and marketing was trash.

Thinking of paying 5.7 lakhs to a mentor for helping me build a killer side hustle - Dropshipping

I and my 3 mates, are looking to build a side hustle in Dropshipping with the help of a successful mentor (@desirichkid on Instagram, if you've heard of him) He boasts of a lavish lifestyle online and tbh, the guy does seem very genuine. Regularly showcases his 1:1 mentorship client results, but rarely posts any info about them, as to not expose his winning strategies. 6000 euros is his fees for a 6 month mentorship programme, which involves a 1:1 session every week, in which he aims to help us build towards a 6 figure sales mark. ~ Roughly 5.8 lakhs A little background, my CTC is 12lpa. And as 4 partners, I'd be pitching in 1.5-2 lakhs, over a course of 3 installments, month over month. Am I making the right decision? Shall I trust the guy?

What’s the obsession with “Growth Hacking”?

I am the first Marketing member to join this startup. CEO wants hypergrowth without paid marketing. He has termed this as “Growth Hacking”. Product is not launched yet, no full time employees, no marketing budget, operating in a space which is yet to be proven and he wants me to crack “word of mouth marketing”. He’s a smart guy but it gets on my nerves sometimes. You either grow gradually without paying for marketing or grow at a breakneck speed with ads. How do I explain him this?
