TEAMS WE’VE BEEN FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO WORK WITH
WHAT WILL MY TEAM THINK?
SYSTM made my job so much easier! Now I can get engineering, and the founder actually listens to me.

Head of Growth, Love Electric
It feels like I’ve fast-forwarded 5 years of experience in just 10 weeks
Rosie Hoggmascall
Growth Lead, Ferly
We use the process every day for faster alignment and faster results. Plus I am having more fun. I can't recommend SYSTM highly enough.

WHAT
YOU GET
We’ll work together through 25+ hours of live workshops and 1:1 coaching (not watching videos) for you and up to 6 members of your team. Our goal is to develop and execute your Growth Playbook, including:
North Star Metric
01
A team aligned around your North Star metric and a dashboard of 3 – 5 behavioural metrics that drive it. (what will your team stop working on?)
Messaging That's Proven to Convert
02
To find language/market fit, we’ll uncover your customers subconscious biases and triggers, so we can develop and quickly validate your winning proposition.
Your Best Scaleable Channels
03
Most great startups grew through only 1 or 2 channels. Instead of trial-and-error, we’ll help you find channel/market fit for your business. Then we’ll help you build the muscle (tools, talent, process) to win in that channel.
A Prioritised Experiment Backlog
04
90% of your results will come from 10% of your work. Therefore, your team must remain focused on dreaming and testing big-impact ideas.
Team and Leadership Insights
05
You’ll get specific candid insights & feedback about your approach, business and team. Do you have the talent and skill in the right places? Is your leadership style helping people succeed or getting in the way?
HOW IT WORKS
We combine the best bits of private consulting (1:1 time with experienced operator/coaches) plus the benefits of a 10 Week accelerator (great structured content, outside experts, network of founder peers, accountability framework). We’ll work side-by-side and focus on execution.
We’ll work side-by-side and focus on execution (not watching videos).
A typical week starts with a Zoom workshop (presentation + discussion) where we’ll introduce a concept and give you an exercise to apply it to your business. Later in the week, you’ll have a 1:1 session with your coach, plus optional “deep dives” on various tactical areas, and help designing growth experiments and interpreting the results.

WHO SHOULD APPLY?
Seed & Series A startups (or bootstrapped equivalents) who have a good product, but struggle to get predictable, scalable profitable growth.
It’s ideal for mobile apps, SAAS, marketplaces & ecommerce. (We’ll have separate tracks for B2B vs B2C). In addition to a good functioning product, you’ll need both founder(s) and employees who can dedicate time to focus on growth.
