From The Growth Engine by Mike Parsons
Episode notes
What this conversation opens up.
Most founders think they have a growth problem.
Revenue is flat. Pipeline is inconsistent. Deals aren't closing.
The instinct is usually to do more: more content, more outreach, more ads, more sales activity.

In this episode of The Growth Engine, Mike Parsons breaks down the three most common bottlenecks behind stalled growth and shows how to identify the real constraint in your business.
You'll learn:
• Why most positioning is too broad and how to create a value proposition customers instantly understand
• The simple framework used by companies like Canva to communicate their value clearly
• Why pipeline problems are often trust problems in disguise
• The "Tools for Trust" that generate more qualified leads and better conversations
• Why conversion challenges are usually caused by a lack of trust, proof, urgency, or risk reduction
• Practical ways to improve demos, offers, pilots, guarantees, and customer proof
