Paid traffic is when you spend money to bring people to your site. Think Google Ads, LinkedIn campaigns, sponsored posts — anything where you're paying per click, impression, or conversion. It’s not better or worse than organic, it just does a different job. Paid traffic is fast, controlled, and scalable — if your funnel works. I usually start here because it gives you early signal. If people don't click, don’t convert, or don’t finish your free course, you know quickly that something’s off. But it also burns cash fast. So you have to know exactly what you're testing and what success looks like, or you'll just run through your budget with nothing to show for it.
Most teams grind for growth, but the best ones systemise it. In this step, you’ll see why a structured approach always beats random tactics. You’ll follow Random Rick, Specialist Steve, and Solid Sarah to understand how a system-driven growth approach can double revenue without doubling workload.
If your marketing and sales teams are too busy firefighting — fixing tools, chasing data, and dealing with messy handovers — you’ll never have time to focus on real growth. The Growth Operations Programme fixes your operations first, so you can finally work on scaling up.
Get more of the right people to your site — and keep them there. Focus your efforts on the channels and tactics that match your stage and stay profitable while you scale.
