In this episode of The Growth Machine, host Shane Miller interviews David Butler, founder and CEO of Produce Produce. They discuss how modern businesses can eliminate inefficiencies and unlock growth by building connected marketing systems rather than relying on isolated tactics.

David shares insights from more than a decade of marketing leadership experience, explaining how many companies unknowingly create “leaky bucket” marketing by focusing only on advertising or sales while neglecting essential components like brand, creative storytelling, PR, and communications.

The conversation highlights the concept of opportunity cost in marketing—how even profitable companies can leave significant growth potential untapped when their marketing efforts lack alignment—and introduces the idea of building mature marketing functions through structured systems such as the Signal System framework.
