Community is the aggregate of a web of relationships that flow naturally through a place. You don''t hire people like that--they grow organically. Yet, you can''t just hire me to be your local community VC. A lot of what they''d need would be really simple--intros to capital, spaces to convene, or just some PR.

I was hired to level-up the marketing team. Then, I evolved it into a growth team by hiring a designer and two engineers. Contrast this with a marketing team going after any particular channel—events, paid, SEO, community, PR, whatever. But in aggregate, they can make a big difference. I Will Teach You to Be Rich.

The most important hiring criteria for your executives is cultural fit. As CEO, you are responsible for every hire. Until Fab reached 150 people, Bradford and I interviewed every single person we hired. If we make a hiring mistake - and we do from time to time - I put that blame on me, not on anyone else.?.

Whether you plan to write the copy internally or hire an experienced B2B copywriter, the cost per 2,000-word post can surpass $500, even if you’re doing the bulk of the work yourself. Another great example of linkable assets are pages that aggregate industry stats, like this one. Growth Design does an amazing job at this.
