Harmony Anderson didn't wait 90 days to make an impact at Superhuman — she launched a major campaign in her first five weeks. Harmony Anderson, Head of Marketing and Growth Product at Superhuman, breaks down why moving fast (and strategically) matters more than playing it safe, especially in high-growth startups. We dig into what it really takes to scale from $20M to $200M ARR, how to enter the enterprise market without abandoning your early adopters, and why traditional attribution models are falling behind in the age of AI and influencers. If you're navigating go-to-market pivots, building modern marketing infrastructure, or just trying to avoid another forgettable brand campaign — this episode is packed with insights. And congratulations to the Superhuman team for being acquired by Grammarly! Key Moments: 00:00 Harmony Anderson on Moving Upmarket and Scaling 01:35 Welcome to Marketing Trends 02:05 Harmony Anderson's Career Journey 08:33 Fast-Paced Marketing Strategies 13:20 Navigating the Dark Funnel 15:59 Balancing Brand and Attribution 16:47 The Role of Influencers in Modern Marketing 19:27 Positioning in the AI Market 24:41 Moving Up Market: Challenges and Strategies 35:06 Vision Setting and Company Evolution 36:11 Superhuman's Ambitious Roadmap 37:02 Unified Productivity and AI Integration 44:18 Scaling Operations for Rapid Growth 48:09 Innovative Tools and Harmony's Tech Stack 51:13 AI in Content Creation and Marketing 56:02 The Resurgence of Webinars 01:02:14 Superhuman for Startups Program Mission.org is a media studio producing content alongside world-class clients.

What if you could turn everyday selfies into professional-grade headshots, without the awkward photo shoot or expensive photographer? In the latest episode of "A Better HR Business", Ricardo Ghekiere, Co-Founder of BetterPic, reveals how he scaled the company from $1.5K to $281K/month, by combining AI, bold marketing hacks, and a relentless focus on culture and customer trust. Ricardo didn't start BetterPic - he bought it for $1 when it was struggling. Through smart positioning, affiliate marketing, and 24/7 human support (yes, even for an AI product), he transformed it into a market leader. Ricardo's experience offers invaluable guidance for those growing an HR tech or consulting business. In a wide-ranging discussion on the A Better HR Business podcast, Ricardo and I talked about: ✅ Buying BetterPic (www.betterpic.io) instead of founding it, and what to consider when acquiring a business. ✅ The rapid growth of AI-generated headshots and what's driving demand. ✅ Why building a full team (not just solo hacking) gave BetterPic an edge. ✅ Embracing full transparency with your team: metrics, mistakes, and all. ✅ Industries beyond headshots that are ripe for AI transformation. ✅ Using customer behavior and data to guide product expansion. ✅ Rocardo's marketing advice for HR-related business leaders. ✅ And much more.

Why This Episode Is a Must-Listen Networking is often hailed as one of the most important skills for advancing your career, growing a business, or uncovering new opportunities—yet few of us ever get a playbook on how to do it well.

She recommends ditching the elevator pitch in favor of meaningful pleasantries and relatable anecdotes: "Bring who you are to what you do. People connect with who you are. What you do is secondary." Move from ‘Who You Know' to ‘Who Knows What You Know' J. Kelly Hoey emphasizes the era of digital presence: your online activity builds relationships around the clock, even while you sleep. Kelly advises, “Every human interaction is a chance to build a relationship... People may be looking up your digital presence any time.” Your expertise and reputation are shaped as much by your network as by your contributions, so curate your professional story online intentionally. Build Community, Not Just a Rolodex David Spinks draws a sharp line between networking and community-building, advocating for a shift in perspective: “The best way to actually build your network is to build community.” Rather than trying to know everyone, focus on connecting others and fostering environments of trust, belonging, and shared purpose. Introverts Can Be Master Networkers Matthew Pollard debunks the myth that extroversion is a prerequisite for networking success. His system is built on preparation, empathy, and curiosity—shifting the conversation from self-promotion to mission-driven dialogue: “The number one rule of networking is it's not about you... Focus on the change you want to see, not just what you do for money.” Call-to-Action Your One-Week Challenge: Reach out to someone in your network you haven't connected with in a while. Whether it's a past colleague, mentor, or someone you admire, send them a thoughtful, agenda-free message to check in and reconnect. You never know what doors that conversation might open.

What if making your product harder to access was the secret to increasing demand? That's the counterintuitive strategy sisters Olivia and Chloe Ferro bet on to catapult their startup SheMed to over 20,000 sign-ups in just a few months. As the UK's first female-focused GLP-1 program, SheMed entered a crowded weight-loss market—but instead of competing on convenience, they bet on credibility. By requiring mandatory blood tests before prescribing medication, they not only differentiated themselves but uncovered a staggering insight: 99% of applicants had undiagnosed health conditions. The payoff? A 3X surge in inbound leads, a 120% increase in patient sign-ups, and high-trust partnerships with major clinics—all fueled by a safety-first approach that turned medical rigor into a viral growth lever. If you've ever worried that implementing stricter client or customer qualifications might slow your sales, this case study is an excellent reminder that trust is your most powerful conversion strategy.

Celebrating Young Wrestlers: The Inspiring Journeys of Gianna and Vince from Grayslake Central High School Welcome back to another heartwarming episode of "Discovering Grayslake," where we shine a spotlight on the incredible achievements of our local heroes. In this episode, we delve into the inspiring journeys of two standout wrestlers from Grayslake Central High School: Gianna and Vince. Hosted by our ever-enthusiastic Speaker 1, this episode is a testament to the power of community support, dedication, and breaking barriers in sports. Meet the Wrestlers: Gianna and Vince Gianna's Journey Gianna, a junior at Grayslake Central High School, began her wrestling journey in the fourth grade. Her story is one of resilience and breaking gender barriers. During her freshman year, she was the only girl on the boys' varsity lineup. Despite the challenges, she persevered and transitioned to wrestling exclusively against girls in her sophomore year. This year, she achieved a significant milestone by taking third place at the state competition. Vince's Journey Vince, a sophomore, started wrestling at the age of nine. His journey is marked by continuous improvement and dedication. After taking fourth place last year, he improved to second place this year at the state competition. Vince's story is a testament to the importance of perseverance and hard work. The Growth of Girls' Wrestling Gianna's Experience Gianna's experience wrestling boys during her freshman year was challenging but rewarding. With the support of her coach, Joseph, she competed on the boys' lineup. Her father also played a crucial role by becoming the volunteer coach for the girls' team. Together, they worked to recruit more girls, successfully forming a team of 11 girls this year. This marks the first year Grayslake Central had a girls' wrestling team. The Rapid Growth in Illinois The growth of girls' wrestling in Illinois has been remarkable. Every school in their conference now has a full girls' team, highlighting the rapid expansion and increasing popularity of the sport. Training and Competition Dynamics Training with Boys Gianna continues to train with the boys, including Vince, who serves as one of her main practice partners. She believes that training with boys has helped her develop toughness and strength, giving her an edge in competitions against girls. Vince's Perspective Vince shares his perspective on wrestling Gianna, noting that he has a sister, so he is accustomed to wrestling girls. The host humorously asks who would win in a match between them, to which they both respond that it depends on the day. Wrestling Backgrounds Vince's Early Days Vince started at the Grayslake Wrestling Club in fourth grade. Despite setbacks due to the COVID-19 pandemic, he continued to train at home with his brother, which helped him improve significantly. By eighth grade, he went undefeated and won the state championship. Gianna's Early Days Gianna initially joined the sport to support her younger brother. Encouraged by her coaches, she found potential in herself and continued to wrestle at the Lake Zurich Wrestling Club until sixth grade. She then participated in middle school wrestling, where she made it to sectionals and became the first girl in her district's history to qualify for state. Future Goals and Community Support Gianna's Aspirations Gianna aims to win a state title next year. She also plans to return to competitive cheer for her senior year, balancing her passion for both sports. Vince's Aspirations Vince aspires to bring home a state title after finishing second this year. He emphasizes the competitive nature of high school wrestling and the need to continually prove himself. Community Support The sense of community surrounding the wrestling program is strong. Vince mentions that Warren Nash, another teammate, qualified for state and had a remarkable season after recovering from an ACL injury. Gianna adds that their girls' team was composed of first-year wrestlers, with one girl, Miranda Tellez, coming close to qualifying for state. Life Lessons from Wrestling Dedication and Discipline Wrestling teaches dedication and the importance of doing what is necessary to achieve goals, even when it is challenging. The sport requires discipline, as athletes must wake up early for practices and workouts. College Wrestling Plans Both Gianna and Vince express their desire to continue wrestling in college. Gianna is exploring colleges and keeping an open mind about her choices, while Vince prefers to stay close to home due to family ties. Influences and Inspirations Gianna's Mentors Gianna cites Maddy Jones, a former wrestler, as a mentor and supportive figure in her journey. She appreciates his guidance and encouragement, especially during her early days in the sport. Vince's Role Models Vince reflects on the influence of the Kramer brothers, who were successful wrestlers in the area. He admires their achievements and aspires to follow in their footsteps as he progresses in his wrestling career. Community and Coaches Gratitude for Coaches Both wrestlers express gratitude for their coaches. Gianna thanks her early coaches, including Mike and Kyle Zarek, as well as Coach Joseph for his support. Vince mentions his first club coach, August Trexler, and the impact he had on his early wrestling career.

They discuss the joys of small business growth, vital entrepreneurial habits, and strategies for team building, encompassing wins, blunders, and invaluable advice.   And a snapshot of the final five Grow A Small Business Questions: 1. What do you think is the hardest thing in growing a small business?   One of the hardest things in growing a small business is scaling without losing quality or company culture. Finding and retaining the right people is a major challenge, as is managing cash flow during rapid growth. Additionally, the emotional ups and downs of entrepreneurship can be difficult to navigate.   2. What's your favorite business book that has helped you the most?   One of Marissa's favorite business book is The Code of the Extraordinary Mind by Vishen Lakhiani. It talks about the 12 elements of life. And if you can fill all of the buckets, then you'll feel whole, which is really nice.   3. Are there any great podcasts or online learning resources you'd recommend to help grow a small business?   Marissa says “Build with Leila Hormozi”is always in her ears all the time. She says it is very helpful to anyone that has staff because she simplifies all concepts into manageable, bite sized pieces that you can apply literally that day, so that you're not just listening, you're actually applying.   4. What tool or resource would you recommend to grow a small business?   One of the most effective tools for growing a small business is leveraging Google Reviews and SEO to improve online visibility. Customer relationship management (CRM) software like HubSpot or ActiveCampaign can help manage customer interactions and automate marketing. Automation tools like Zapier can streamline operations and save time by connecting different apps and services.   5. What advice would you give yourself on day one of starting out in business?   If I could give myself advice on day one, I would emphasize the importance of focusing on building systems rather than just working hard. Patience is key—success doesn't happen overnight, and consistent effort pays off in the long run. Networking and building relationships early on can open doors to new opportunities. Lastly, keeping a close eye on finances from the beginning can prevent many future challenges. Book a 20-minute Growth Chat with Troy Trewin to see if you qualify for our upcoming course.

Show genuine interest in their work and listen to their insights. Offer employees the autonomy and decision-making power akin to that of an owner. Recognize their potential to contribute to the company's success and trust them with more responsibility.  Develop a clear, actionable mantra that reflects the values and goals of the company. This helps employees understand and align with the company's vision and mission. Implement a system of recognition to motivate employees. A simple thank you or a public acknowledgment of hard work can significantly boost morale. Understand that culture is more about how employees feel and how engaged they are, rather than just perks. Cultivate an atmosphere where employees look forward to coming to work and are proud of their contributions
