We wrote the book on customer-led growth
This book will teach you the systematic, repeatable method we use to help companies — like Sprout Social, FullStory, Wistia, Appcues, SparkToro, and many dozens more — calm the marketing chaos and hit ambitious revenue targets.
Taking a customer-focused approach to growth sounds like common sense—but there aren’t many resources that actually unpack the process of HOW to do it.
Forget The Funnel gives leaders a practical, step-by-step guide to building an impactful, informed growth strategy, and connecting the dots between strategy and their daily work. It also includes dozens of real-life case studies, examples, and concrete ideas you can move on the same day. A very high ROI book.

But still, revenue growth is...lumpy. Slow. Inconsistent. The arrow on the chart goes up and to the right some months, but other months, it dips. And no one can really say why.
If this sounds like a description of your day-to-day, please know: it’s not that the ideas or tactics you’re trying are bad or wrong. The real problem is, you’re guessing.
The information you actually need to fix inconsistent, unpredictable growth is found in one place: inside your best customers’ heads. This book will help you unlock it.
This book will show you exactly how to...
- Learn from your best customers and turn data into insight
- Map and measure your customer's experience
- Find, and align on, your company's biggest levers for growth
We call this three-phase process the Customer-Led Growth Framework. It’s the systematic, repeatable method we use to help companies—of all sizes and at all stages of growth—calm the marketing chaos and hit ambitious revenue targets.
