When I worked with 70 Faces Media, the exec team knew they needed to bring true product leadership into their ranks, but were struggling to define the scope of the role. The challenge, we learned, was that adjacent roles were poorly defined and filled with people not equipped to collaborate well with a new product hire. The result was not just a new product role, but significant adjustments to the overall org chart — a painful but necessary step to modernize the organization and their products.
When I first joined Howl, we were a high-growth, seed-stage startup focused on legacy publishers like Wirecutter and Hearst. As we shifted our strategy to target individual creators on YouTube and TikTok, I focused on bringing in the right people to make that transition work. We sought out PMs and designers with deeper experience in B2C — people who had that intuitive sense of customer delight — to complement and enhance B2B-heavy team. Getting the right team in place was one of the first critical steps to kick off Howl's next phase of growth.
