Bio
David Kim took ScaleUp from zero to $20M ARR in three years. No hype. No vanity metrics. Just growth loops that actually work. His "Growth Weekly" newsletter has 50,000 founders waiting for every drop. He's the growth guy who delivers.
Two YC companies. Dozens of startups advised. David has seen what fails and what 10x's. His talks are legendary for cutting through the noise β you'll leave with a playbook you can run Monday morning.
