Scott Stouffer also discusses the disconnect between the mindset of growth at all costs and the reality of how long it takes for results to show.
He attributes this disconnect to the revolving door of heads of sales and marketing, who are expected to make their numbers every month and cannot take the longer-term view that a CEO or CFO might.
He encourages leaders to take the time to understand the controlled environment and to iterate on changes one at a time in order to achieve the desired results.
