What does it really take to build and evolve a go-to-market engine that drives sustainable growth in today’s environment? This week, we’re re-airing one of our most popular conversations from the Shift & Thrive Go-To-Market Miniseries: a deep dive with Scott Brown, Partner and Head of Platform & Go-To-Market at Cervin Ventures. It’s packed with practical insights for leaders rethinking how their teams generate and retain revenue in a changing market.

Takeaways:

  • Use data to challenge assumptions. Inbound signals often reveal overlooked opportunities; the right metrics can prove where to shift focus and resources.
  • Test, learn, then commit. Approach go-to-market changes with a hypothesis mindset. Controlled experiments reduce risk and build confidence in new strategies.
  • Align your teams early. Sales, marketing, and customer success should share language, systems, and goals to drive retention and expansion, not just acquisition.
  • Balance human and AI strengths. AI can amplify strategy, but only when teams have the right foundations and oversight to guide automation effectively.
  • Keep the human in the loop. AI tools are powerful accelerators, but without human judgment and oversight, they can magnify errors or inefficiencies.
  • Lay strong operational foundations. Even the most advanced tools can’t fix a flawed setup. Double-check your systems before scaling.
  • Invest in customer success before it’s a problem. Retention planning should be part of your first go-to-market blueprint, not a late-stage fix.
