Mr Ryan Connors Growth Marketing Leader

Ryan Connors

Revenue Growth Advisor

Strategy-first growth marketing for B2B SaaS and eCommerce brands.When the numbers stop making sense, there’s a constraint hiding somewhere.
I find it, fix the system, and help make revenue more repeatable.
Recent results: 45% lower CPA, 384% YoY ROAS growth, and $11M ARR supported.


WHO I HELP

I work best with B2B SaaS and eCommerce teams that want marketing tied to pipeline, revenue, and profitability, not vanity metrics.I’m usually brought in when:📉 CAC is drifting
Spend is scaling, but efficiency, payback, and next steps are unclear.
🧭 Attribution is a black box
Demand exists, but leadership does not fully trust the data.
🔌 Pipeline impact is unclear
Activity is high, but pipeline and closed-won revenue are not moving with it.
🧠 Execution lacks operating cadence
The strategy exists, but testing velocity, accountability, and follow-through are missing.


HOW I DRIVE GROWTH

Revenue Architecture is my 4-step growth system for finding constraints, improving efficiency, and scaling revenue.

🧭 Fractional Growth Leadership

⚙️ Measurement and AI Workflows
Tracking, reporting, QA systems, and faster weekly decision loops that make better execution possible.
📈 Operating Cadence and Experimentation

High-leverage engagements designed to find the constraint, focus the team, and move revenue faster.


ONE SYSTEM FIX

At Decisions, paid social slipped while spend held.The issue was not just the media buy. The deeper problems were offer-message mismatch, post-click friction, and ICP drift.What changed:• Rebuilt the creative and audience testing matrix around ICP and intent.
• Restructured campaigns by country and motion.
• Improved conversion tracking and connected reporting into HubSpot.
• Built a cleaner pipeline dashboard for performance decisions.
Result: CPA down 45%, ROAS up 384% YoY.
