Our take
With rising rates of media literacy, traditional advertising is an increasingly hard sell. However few companies have the in-house talent and resources need to acquire customers, generate leads or run the effective marketing campaigns that are now essential to commercial success.
Growthcurve is a London-based startup providing its considerable growth marketing expertise to fast-growth companies. It allows its customers to form marketing teams tailored to their requirements and which can scale up rapidly as the company grows. Compared to traditional agencies or freelancers, Growthcurve's service is far more flexibile, reliable and adapatable to business needs.
Growthcurve's experimental approach to advertising backed by expert data analysis has led to strong results, and the company has built a strong and growing cutomer base including the likes of Coinbase, Hubpay and Unilever. Going forward the company is focusing on businesses with a strong sustainability and social impact focus, aiming to use its growth marketing expertise to improve the world as well as their customers' bottom line.
