S5 Bonus: The Science of Scaling: Engineering Repeatable B2B Growth Experiments with Techstars Alum Shelby Stephens

Marketplace for Fractional Startup Help
Back in 2019, we had Shelby Stephens on the show to talk about his project then, called Jolly. Since that time, the COVID pandemic shut down events and crippled their progress at the time. They pivoted the product a bit, to be a sort of eCommerce like site for freelancers to offer services. While they let their Jolly pivot grow, he and his co-founder started building a new product... one which allows startup experts to offer their knowledge and experience - in a fractional, part time manner.
This is the creation story of Growth Match.
