Description
I've never done an episode like this ever before.
Nate Lagos's tweet outlining his exact 10 keys to growing Original Grain was so good that I immediately DMed him and said, "Let's talk more about all of these."
So that's what we did: from 1-10, we went piece by piece through each of the points on the list and kicked them around.
This episode is good because Nate is right about so much. Calls to stop touching your ad account, spend money no matter what, and, of course, make sure you've got that dog in you–they're various levels of wise and counterintuitive.
Nate is currently the Head of Marketing at Original Grain and formerly ran growth at Dugout Mugs.
