THE GROWTH TRAP THAT KILLS STARTUPS

You've got product-market fit. Customers love you. But growth has stalled.

Your team is busy—running ads, writing content, building features. Yet revenue barely moves.

Here's why: You're spreading effort across 20 things when only 2-3 actually matter for your business.

While you're optimizing button colors, your competitor found their one scalable channel and is eating your market.

THE SOLUTION ISN'T WORKING HARDER

It's working on the right things. But how do you know what those are?

That's exactly what we'll help you figure out—and execut

Revenue growth numbers from companies who came through this program, or a similar one we ran as part of 500 Startups' accelerator, in the subsequent 3 years. We cannot guarantee you will achieve the same results, but we'd love to add more companies to this part of our site if you'd like to try!

IN 12 MONTHS, YOU'LL HAVE:

01

A team that knows exactly what to work on

A repeatable way to find what works

02

Your 1-2 channels that actually scale

03

The confidence to say no

04

Proof it works

05

Stop the debates. Everyone will know which metrics matter and which projects to kill.

Replace guesswork with a rapid testing process that gets results in days, not months.

Stop spreading budget across 10 channels. Master the ones that work for YOUR business.

Kill good ideas to focus on great ones. Your team will thank you.

Real revenue growth, not vanity metrics. Our average alumni grow 3-10x.

When you need the whole team aligned and moving fast

HOW IT WORKS

We'll map exactly where you're losing customers and which fixes will have the biggest impact. No more guessing.

Run weekly growth sprints. Test big ideas fast. Get your whole team moving in the same direction.

Monthly check-ins keep you focused on the big wins, not the latest shiny tactic.

This isn't theory. You'll be running real experiments on your real business from day one.

Months 3-12: Scale What Works

Weeks 5-12: Pull Those Levers Hard

Weeks 1-4: Find Your Leverage Points

WHO SHOULD APPLY?

THIS IS FOR YOU IF:

✓ You have paying customers but growth has plateaued

✓ Your team works hard but you're not sure on what

✓ You've tried hiring for growth but it didn't work

✓ You know you're leaving money on the table

✓ You want to grow without burning cash on bad bets

 

THIS ISN'T FOR YOU IF:

✗ You're still searching for product-market fit

✗ You want someone else to do the work

✗ You think one silver bullet will save you

✗ You're happy with slow, steady growth

It’s ideal for mobile apps, SAAS, marketplaces & ecommerce. (We’ll have separate tracks for B2B vs B2C). In addition to a good functioning product, you’ll need both founder(s) and employees who can dedicate time to focus on growth.

WHAT WILL MY TEAM THINK?

SYSTM made my job so much easier! Now I can get engineering, and the founder actually listens to me.

3X REVENUE GROWTH IN 3 MONTHS

“We worried that being in a cohort with so many other startups would dilute the direct impact of the program. But working 1-on-1 with our coach led to profound breakthrough changes in our business. I can honestly say our coach helped us change the outlook of our business entirely.”

Max Stratmann
CRO, Scanbot

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • Are you taking equity?
    Not at this time.
  • What if it doesn't work for our business model?
    Full refund up to week 3. But we've worked with SaaS, marketplaces, D2C, mobile apps—the process works because it's about finding what drives YOUR growth, not copying others.
  • How many slots are available?
    Only 30 companies, so that each one can get direct personal attention.
  • Is the lesson live, can we ask questions?
    You'll join a mix of group calls and private coaching sessions with just your team. It's all 100% live so you can question and discuss with the coaches and other participants, and follow-up during private office hours.
  • What about my competitors?
    Our discussions must be 100% candid. Therefore we cannot allow competing companies under any circumstances. We’ll manage this through the application process.
  • What are the selection criteria?
    We want this program to have a huge impact on your business. So we’re looking for companies that will have the greatest benefit from our program. That means you need a good functioning product, happy customers, a talented team, enough resources to try stuff, and most of all, a genuine desire to commit to the process, reflect and try new things.
  • What if our Head of Growth thinks they already know this stuff
    Great. They'll love having a structured process to get buy-in from engineering and product. Plus external validation that their ideas are right. Every Head of Growth we've worked with says it made their job easier, not harder.
  • How is this different from other growth programs?
    We don't teach generic frameworks. We help you find YOUR specific growth levers and execute them. No lectures about "growth hacking"—just hands-on work on your actual business with coaches who've done it before.
  • Will the sessions be recorded if I cannot attend?
    Yes, participants will have access to the recordings for one year from the program start date.
  • We already have advisors
    Advisors give advice. We roll up our sleeves and work with you weekly. Big difference between "you should try X" and "here's exactly how to test X by Friday
  • What if we change our minds or want to pull out?
    If you change your mind for any reason in the first 3 weeks of the programme, you’ll get an 80% refund, no questions asked. (Though this rarely happens, as we try to make sure everyone’s a good fit via the application & interview process).
  • Is this like Reforge?
    Reforge is an excellent online learning program for experienced/elite level marketers working at late-stage startups and corporates. We’re focusing on earlier stage companies, and welcoming people who have no marketing experience whatsoever. And, rather than individual training, we’re focusing on your whole growth leadership team, since growth really is a team sport!
  • Who from my team should attend?
    Up to 6 people, should include founders, recommend also your head of growth and/or product (if you have them) and analytics. We can work with you on this list during our intake session. (While your extended team cannot participate live, they can access the recordings and course materials).
  • Can we send new hires through later?
    Yes. Once you're in, you can send new team members through any future cohort (up to four) at no extra cost. Great for onboarding.
  • Any Other Mentors?
    Occasionally we bring in additional outside instructors to “go deep” on a particular topic. In the past, we’ve been fortunate to run sessions with Sean Ellis, Andy Johns and Gagan Biyani (founder of Udemy). No promises, but we’re always trying to bring in the best minds we can find!
  • How Advanced is the Material? Okay for non-marketers? Experienced marketers?
    The material is intellectually demanding, but does not require marketing experience. It is first principles learning, so it will require a lot of thought and operational discipline. But we will present the content in a way that’s accessible to people with zero marketing background and engaging for experienced marketers alike.
  • But we don't have time for another program
    This replaces the work you're already doing, not adds to it. You'll actually save time by killing projects that don't matter. Most teams spend 10-15 hours/week on growth anyway—we'll make those hours count.
  • Will we actually be working directly with the coaches?
    Yes. Each week you'll have a private session with your coach. Plus, you can also book in office hours with any of our other specialist coaches including Matt and Nopadon. We have experts in everything, including analytics, lead gen, conversion, brand building, SEO, paid ads, conversion optimisation, marketplaces, driving app installs... all kinds of stuff, really.
  • Do you work 1:1 with companies outside this program?
    That’s how we started out. But we found that the structured program is much more impactful. We can actually spend a lot more time together (lessons + 1:1 coaching sessions), bring in more outside specialists, and the teams also help and encourage each other.
  • Do you share a list of attendees?
    Attendee Privacy and Networking: We prioritize attendee privacy and do not share participant lists before or after the event. However, Turing Fest x SYSTM offers numerous opportunities for meaningful connections: Coffee and lunch breaks Happy hour Evening social events Event app for digital networking (available pre-event) These diverse networking options ensure you can connect with fellow attendees in person, fostering genuine relationships within our community.
  • How can we sponsor this event?
    If you would like a sponsor deck please contact contact matt@systm.co for more information.
  • Can I volunteer for this event?
    We’re looking for folks to help with registration, ushering, marketing, speaker management, expo management, and more. Contact us at claire@systm.co for more information.
  • When can I purchase my ticket?
    Join our waiting list and we'll notify you as soon as tickets are available.
  • Can I share my ticket with my colleague/friend/neighbour?
    Ticket Policy: Sorry, each ticket grants admission for one individual to the entire event. Tickets are non-transferable and cannot be shared between multiple attendees. Similar to movie or concert tickets, Turing Fest x SYSTM tickets are designed for use by a single person throughout the duration of the conference. This policy ensures a fair experience for all attendees and helps us maintain accurate attendance records.
