TRAINING

Equipping impact entrepreneurs with the tools they need to grow

The business world is out of balance. For generations upon generations, the world of commerce has doggedly chased growth for the sake of growth. Accumulation. Rising profit margins and greater return on investment for a small minority of shareholders.

How long can this continue?

The problem is that big business – the corporate giants and unicorn startups that loom over our planet have had a big head start. They have been developing and refining tools and techniques to enable growth at a massive scale.

But rather than getting angry, let’s even the playing field.

Our team is made up of entrepreneurs, strategists, and growth marketers. We have spent time working for venture builders, performance marketing agencies, bidding agencies and design houses. Unfortunately, we know how big business operates. But we are now committed to using this knowledge and experience to good effect.

To bring about balance.

Educating and supporting the next generation of impact founders

We work alongside venture builders, start-up accelerators, incubators and other organisations in the impact ecosystem to deliver training programmes, workshops and key-note talks that affect positive change.

Aish Moothan, Programme Associate, Bethnal Green Ventures

“The training was great value for money. Moh took the time to meet with us prior to the sessions to set the scope of the workshops, taking on board what attendees needed most out of it and setting overarching goals to achieve by the end of the session. The session itself was laden with practical resources and exercises.”

Amanda S, Workshop attendee

“Thank you for a 15/10 workshop. Having worked in marketing the last decade, this was the most inspiring and energising take on growth marketing I have seen.”

Greg Brodsky, Founder, Start.COOP

“Zebra Growth supplied exactly what our Start.coop cohort was looking for and gave our group a great overview of how to look at marketing as a series of experiments. The training delivered over the past 3 months was transformative for some of our attendees.”

One More Thing

Ever wondered what Hannibal can teach us about branding? Or how a young boy from Yemen is reshaping the world of growth marketing? Or how to build a brand with heart?

What motivates us to stand in front of strangers and talk for an hour (or less)? Simply, we do this because we are deeply enthusiastic about what we do and that every human we connect with can accelerate the shift to a fair, regenerative and ethical way of doing business.

We’d love the opportunity to share our thoughts with you on the following topics:

  • Growth marketing
  • Ethical branding & marketing
  • Ethical strategy
  • Regenerative business
  • Zebras versus Unicorns
  • Our authentic founder stories
