Good Growth partners exclusively with retailers in the US and UK with online revenues exceeding $1Bn, many of which are in the Top 100. Our technology enables their commercial and digital teams to launch complex and revenue-driving online changes in days rather than months. Having written the best-selling book on data and digital in the UK, our founders witnessed first-hand just how hard and risky it is for enterprise businesses to drive profitable growth across digital channels. Global retailers and brands are full of ideas and innovations that can drive growth. But translating these changes into existing technology domains and stacks often slows the pace and scale of change that CEOs and their boards require. Through more than 10 years of development and three funding rounds, we’ve solved this problem. Our platform and methodology transform the digital investment model and provide users with a competitive advantage to protect market share as they compete against Amazon.
