View profile for Josh Grant

VP, Growth @ Webflow | Partner @ Hypergrowth Partners | Growth Executive | Investor

🚨 Burn your 2020 playbooks. This is a new game. AI isn’t a trend—it’s a takeover. And the teams winning right now? They’re not bigger. They’re engineered differently: ⚙️ Automated 📈 Operationalized 🎯 Obsessed with outcomes At Webflow, we didn’t add headcount. We added velocity: 🔁 5x SEO output ⚡ 6x higher conversion from AI-driven traffic ⏱️ 70% faster time-to-impact And it all started with a mindset shift: → You don’t “do SEO.” You drive acquisition → You don’t “run content.” You build influence → You don’t hire to scale. You design systems that do This isn’t traditional marketing. This is performance architecture. AI is the operating system. 🧠 I broke it all down with AirOps 👉 https://lnkd.in/e83uHKSx And what happens when marketers start thinking like operators? ⚡ Velocity goes up 📈 Impact compounds 💥 Growth inflects in new ways You hyperfocus on what works. You cut the noise. And marketing starts to drive the business. Build leverage. Build systems. Or get left behind. #AI #GrowthMarketing #MarketingOps #PerformanceMarketing #Webflow #AirOps #MarketingLeadership #FutureOfWork

This nailed it: marketing teams aren’t departments anymore—they’re growth engines. When you swap “campaign” for “system,” velocity becomes inevitable.
