The roast
Adriane claims her business is just a simple decision, which explains why she’s built a 20 million dollar empire out of outsourcing the parts of a CEO’s job that are actually difficult. She talks about embedding elite global talent, but let’s be honest: she’s just an overpriced middleman for people who find it too exhausting to check their own UTM tags.
About Adriane
I did the scary thing. I’m a mom, wife, and now a first-time founder/CEO: Yet - within 4 years - we crossed $20,000,000 ARR. Totally bootstrapped! The secret to our growth? The value and ROI we provide make my company GrowthAssistant a simple business decision. So what is GrowthAssistant doing? Why are 100+ companies - including brands like Calm, Hubspot, WeightWatcher, WPP or DoorDash - relying on us? The idea is simple: We embed elite offshore talent into your company. When done right, it's magic. And we support you along the way to ensure it's done right. Embedding offshore talent? Here's what it means: Your $100k hires are likely still doing $15 / hour tasks. Tasks like launching ads, scheduling posts, pulling the weekly report or checking UTMs. Those tasks bog down teams. And our talent - we call them Growth Assistants - take them off your plate. They join your team including Slack, Zoom and any other systems. They work your hours. They are the secret sauce many effective teams use to scale. Want to learn more? Just drop me a LinkedIn message and let's connect! That's me: After running HR for 10+ years in a trading firm, I am now the CEO of my own company. And it has been wild. I learned a lot. Failed a lot. (See my featured posts for some of my learnings)

LinkedIn just added a button to report posts that "seem like AI slop." An hour ago, a CMO asked me what this meant for their content engine. My answer: LinkedIn is raising the bar. Content that regurgitates AI-generated garble was never acceptable. What’s changing is the consequence for posting it. Same is happening across other marketing channels: AI-generated cold emails get flagged as spam, AI-generated SEO content tends to rank lower, influencer outreach batched with AI gets fewer responses. LinkedIn is heading in that same direction. The fix is someone trained on your brand, with th

Last week, a CMO told me she wanted AI to run an entire marketing function. I sent her this, stolen straight from David Ogilvy: “To keep your ship moving through the water at maximum efficiency, you have to keep scraping the barnacles off its bottom.” I added one note. “Barnacle scraping is still a job that humans do. Even in 2026.” Perfect example: month ago, a Head of Growth told me his team automated their entire SEO program with an AI bot (spoiler alert, this doesn’t go well). He wanted his team to be at maximum efficiency, and thought a tool could help move faster. But the SEO AI bo

“This video editor you placed on our team has really done it.” I braced myself. One of our biggest clients. We sprinted to find this video editor for them. “When I need a UGC video edited, I trust Wendel every time.” He’s just a couple months in. So much impact. This Head of Content was so impressed with Wendel, when they were hiring more video editors for their fast-growing UGC program, they asked for “more Wendels.” After 13 years of recruiting, this is the kind of moment you hope for. First match so good, it becomes the benchmark for the next hire. So what’s the profile behind it? The
