But does it convert to revenue?!?
Or even more importantly, PROFIT?
Visibility, AI citations, getting found... there are a lot of concerns for business…
B2B growth is messy. Not just at $5M or $10M ARR. At every stage, inside every kind of company, longer than anyone wants to admit. (Even in the Fortune 500 space)
Revenue Remix is where the operators who've lived it come to tell hard truths about what's actually driving growth right now.
Host by Summer Poletti — 3x Founder, Chief Sales Strategist, and the person who's unafraid of getting spicy or ruffling feathers. Summer is steadfast in her quest for sustainable and profitable growth. Guests have said she makes them feel comfortable, and listeners say she has a knack for connecting with the audience.
We don't just talk about trends or challenges, every episode ends with an stealable moment; something you can do or review today.
WHAT WE COVER GTM strategy. Revenue architecture. Founder-led sales and what comes after. Pipeline that isn't built on hope. Sales and marketing alignment (the real kind). Customer success as a growth lever. Partnerships that actually produce referrals. Hiring before you're ready — and what breaks when you do. The messy handoff from scrappy to scalable.
WHO YOU'LL HEAR FROM Founders at launch, in the thick of it, post-exit, and figuring out what's next. Consultants, Coaches, and boutique Agency owners who see patterns across dozens of companies. And since growth is more than just sales, you';ll hear from Operations, Finance, HR, Product, in addition to Sales and Marketing. GTM tool founders talking problems, not pitches. Emerging thought leaders saying things the establishment hasn't caught up to yet.
THE FORMAT Deep-dive founder interviews. Multi-voice panels where operators who've never met figure out they've been solving the same problem from different angles. Bonus mini episodes when Summer wants to share one of her frameworks with you.
THE COMMUNITY Guests don't just appear and disappear. Panelists meet on this show and keep talking. People get introduced to someone they needed to know. If you've been looking for operators who think a little differently and actually lift each other up... you found them.
