# What is a growth system?

A growth system finds the people who fit a company, researches each one, and acts in the company’s voice on the channels that fit: outreach, content, search and replies to inbound. A person approves what goes out in the company’s name, the system follows through on schedule, and what worked feeds the next search.

Boundary: Nothing goes out in the company’s name without clearing the line the company draws: a person’s approval, a check on its voice, or a daily window to read the queue and pull anything.
Drawn per system: a rule, not a model · a person decides · a person clears · prepares, never speaks · a person approves · the record, or nothing · one state per thread

- **The situation**: You are growing faster than you can hire.
- **What it is**: Systems that find, reach and follow up with the right people, in your company’s voice.
- **What changes**: Growth stops waiting on the next hire.

## What it shows up as

Names you may already use for it. Each is one arrangement of the parts below, fitted to one company.

- A CRM that enriches itself
- Or the one your growth runs on that has no name yet.

## What gets built

## Growth systems, as built.

Each one is an instance of the flow above, fitted to one company.

- [Land brand deals from a short list of the right companies.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/craft-retail-brand-sales/demo) (An independent craft retailer · brand sales, Running): Each company is researched and gets a drafted first email; a separate sender is the only part allowed to send.
- [Hand every writer the angle before they start.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/writer-angles/demo) (Content agency, Designed): Each client’s niche is read across the places its audience talks, sorted by topic and made searchable.
- [Reach every fleet manager in your market, in your own voice.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/marine-outreach/demo) (Marine services, Designed): Existing and newly found contacts are researched, then written to in the owner’s voice.
- [Hand every rep the brief before they dial.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/telesales-call-brief/demo) (Telesales, Designed): Before every call, the rep sees who they’re calling, why now, and what to open with.
- [Find the right companies, and write to each one in our own voice.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/forward-scouting) (Our own · forward, Running (our own)): Each company found is researched, a first email is drafted in our voice, and nothing sends until a person approves it.
- [Publish every week in each founder’s own voice.](https://octyn.co/casestudies/fullsend) (Our own · fullsend, Running (our own)): One written record of what each founder knows and how each one writes feeds every thread and article.

## Fit

Signs it fits:

- People already buy what you sell.
- You are growing faster than you can hire.
- Outreach and follow-up wait on a few people finding time.
- You know which customers are your best ones.

Signs it is early:

- You are still looking for your first buyers.
- There is no pattern yet to repeat.
- You are comparing hourly rates.

Two or more signs that fit: book a mapping call. Early, or not sure: send the problem from the homepage form, and a person replies within two working days.

## Questions

- **Will it sound like us?**: Yes, because it writes from what your company has already written and said, and a person approves anything that goes out in your name before it goes.
- **Which channels does it cover?**: The ones your buyers use: outreach, content, search, social or replies to inbound. The Consult decides which come first, and most companies start with one.
- **Does it replace our sales team?**: No. It does the finding, the research and the first drafts, and follows up on schedule until a person takes the conversation over.
