Hi Reader, That line stopped me cold when I heard it. The woman who said it has $52 million in product launches to back it up. Today I launched a podcast called Lightning Speed, and Episode 1 features Angela Martin, who has built commercial systems at PepsiCo, Mayo Clinic, Harley-Davidson, and Cantel Medical, where she grew capital sales 789% in eight months. In this 20-minute best-of style episode, Angela breaks down exactly why product launches stall, why 90-day activation roadmaps beat annual planning, and how she got a brand into Costco at PepsiCo when everyone said it couldn't be done. Lightning Speed is my answer to something I kept seeing: founders running great companies who are constantly distracted from business building because of marketing. I assembled a best-in-class CMOs at CAC Media and so I interviewed them to help founders and CEOs figure out how to scale up. This podcast gets their best marketing plays into your hands. You can find Lightning Speed on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and YouTube. I would love it if you gave it a listen and shared it with a founder or CEO who could use it.

Revenue Problems Solved C-suite marketing intelligence for growth-stage companies that are done playing small. Revenue Insights by Corinne Cavanaugh, Founder & Growth Advisor TLDR: You don't have a product problem. You have a story problem. Here is something I hear from founders all too often, "Our product is way better than whats out there, but we just can't seem to get traction." The product is not the problem.
