Shahin Hoda talks to Catapult's Marketing Director Boden Westover, Pointer Remote Roles Founder Jo Palmer and Who Gives A Crap's Growth Manager Tim Baxter about managing remote teams and promoting remote work culture.
We’re all working remotely now, and it made us wonder -- Is this going to be the new norm? Well, maybe not in all industries, but we’re seeing more and more companies taking the idea of working from home and remote work very seriously.
Love it or hate it, it looks like a sizeable part of the global population will be working from home for at least the rest of the year and beyond.
We’ve always loved working remotely at Growth Colony, and we’ve put together this panel of remote work leaders to discuss how we can create and manage super-efficient remote teams.

Shahin Hoda talks with the CEO and Founder of Avaana, Rohan Pardasani, about how Avaana has managed to pivot from their core services because of coronavirus and develop new offerings for their customer base.
Avaana helps everyday Aussies book health and well-being services with ease, but when COVID-19 hit (and customers stopped booking allied health services) they realised they needed to test something new. They were able to swiftly test new messaging and offer new services to allied health practitioners which Rohan has called a perfect storm for their growth.
In this episode, we'll explore how Rohan and his team went about developing their new services and what is his advice for anyone else looking to do the same.

At the start, the concept of going niche and servicing a smaller number of companies sound counterintuitive. The first thing that comes to a founder’s mind is “but we will be missing out on a lot of opportunities”.
That was a challenge our guest for this episode overcame many years ago and the results have been amazing. In this episode, Steve Psaradellis, Founder and CEO of Teba, talks about how niching down their service offering allowed Teba to grow faster with stronger profit margins.
Niching down can impact all angles of your business. Listen to Steve explain how he did it, what was the impact, and what is his advice to other founders who want to do the same.

APAC's B2B Growth Podcast (formerly Growth Colony) is a bi-weekly interview show unpacking trends, busting myths and delivering insights B2B marketing and sales leaders across Asia-Pacific can put to work today.
Each episode, host Shahin Hoda sits down with a marketing leader, sales leader, founder or operator who has a real point of view, not a generic take.
Guests bring specific stories from inside their own companies: what worked, what failed and what they'd do differently.
We cover what's actually driving B2B growth in the region: account-based marketing built for APAC rather than adapted from a US or UK playbook, sales and marketing alignment, and founder and operator commentary from people doing the work, not just talking about it.
