Craig Zingerline knows too many startups are failing, and decided to do something about it.
As a 6 time founder himself, he interviewed over 400 other founders to learn about their struggles with growth. Turns out, there were some very common themes:
1. How do you identify where the growth potential is for your business?
2. How do you design & execute on holistic growth strategies to reach that potential?
So he synced up with cofounder and experienced marketer Jen Bryan to launch Velocity Growth. Our mission is to help startups succeed.
Velocity Growth is your no BS, no overhead consultancy. We only hire world class, experienced marketers and deploy them into projects for our clients. You deserve more growth. Our proven methodology is the engine behind some of the industry’s fastest-growing startups.

We work as an extension of your team, unlocking your growth potential. There are no junior people at our company – just senior experts who are masters of their craft. And we work very closely with our clients, with a transparent and open process across all of our engagements.
Most projects start with one or more audits – we’ll uncover the major opportunities, strengths, weaknesses, gaps, and areas of short, mid and long term growth potential. We’ll document and share this with you as we uncover key findings.
We work on a weekly sprint cadence, leveraging everything from designing and implementing experiments to managing paid and organic acquisition channels, through activation improvements & more.

Velocity Growth helped us streamline our digital marketing strategy, specifically identifying weaknesses and implementing a robust and pragmatic plan. They have a skilled team with experts in marketing disciplines that have supercharged our marketing team and are a pleasure to work with. We would definitely recommend their services to other startups.
As a young company, you probably don’t have a lot of resources to throw around, but this is worthy of the investment.
I can’t recommend this enough for all founders who want to nail their growth strategy without reinventing the wheel.
We recently started working with Velocity Growth, and within 2 weeks saw our lead ratio increase by close to 400% and our cost per conversion drop 80%. Their approach to growth via experimentation is already making a huge impact on our business.
