Catalyst Curriculum Session Overview

The Science of Scaling Framework & Defining and Implementing Product-Market Fit

As the introductory course of the Stage 2 Capital Catalyst, we dive into our core methodology, the Science of Scaling, which was developed by our Co-Founder and former HubSpot CRO, Mark Roberge.

Learning objectives include determining the optimal timing and pace of scaling revenue using your organization’s data, aligning the GTM system design with the scaling phase, defining Product-Market-Fit (PMF) for your organization, and defining the Ideal Customer Profile (ICP) for your organization.

“The Stage 2 Capital Catalyst exposed Lively to a world of information about scaling a start up. During the program, we realized we didn’t have the product-market fit that we needed to scale, but Stage 2 Capital gave us the tools to fix that. The strategies we learned directly informed the next series of hires and decisions we made, as we confidently experimented with our product and sales playbook until we started to get the traction we were looking for. Now we have a robust sales pipeline, setting us on a path to scale.”
