Why You Need to Stop Your Growth-at-All-Costs Strategy

Episode #196: 💡 Peter Mullen, Growth Leader of AI, GTM, Brand, and CX at Simply Systems LLC, explains why the “growth-at-all-costs” era is breaking trust and gutting long-term value. Drawing on 30 years of scaling tech brands, he urges marketers to pivot spend toward thought leadership, brand integrity, and customer experience so revenue compounds instead of spiking and crashing. 💡“We need to reconnect with what our customers truly need and shift our mentality from ‘growth at all costs’ to building long-standing partnerships. The exciting part is that this approach allows us to reimagine the entire engine of our growth strategy.” - Peter MullenPeter insists today’s skeptical, part-time buyers reward vendors who replace vanity funnels with transparency: add 50 % of budget to “trust development,” spotlight real executive and frontline voices, and trade flashy mega-booths for smaller forums where experts shake hands twice and share stories that stick. This trust-first playbook, he argues, is how companies escape quarter-to-quarter whiplash and build sustainable, loyalty-driven growth.Follow Peter Mullen on LinkedInFollow host Steve MacDonald on LinkedIn
