In their own words

Where will growth come from? It's an old question that increasingly needs new answers. Buyer behaviour is changing, buyers self-educate more than ever, and many traditional sales and marketing tactics are under pressure. This podcast is for sales, growth, and marketing professionals looking for smarter, more practical ways to grow. Hosted by sales & marketing nerds from Kvadrant Consulting - a growth-focused management consultancy from Copenhagen and part of the Elixirr Group, we explore the full sales and marketing spectrum together with commercial leaders and internal experts. We talk about what actually works, what doesn't, and where growth really comes from...

As heard by us

Based on 6 episodes we listened to · September 2026

Detailed commercial conversations connect growth strategy to the organizational work required to sell, launch and position B2B products.

The Growth Agenda turns B2B growth into a series of operating questions: how teams build go-to-market plans, hire salespeople, introduce products, strengthen brands and make sales methods stick.

Short reviews from the PlayNext desk, based on the episodes we processed.

#49 – Martin & Oliver: Kink the Curve – Change Your Growth Trajectory

A grounded case for treating transformation as a continuing discipline, not an occasional project.

Martin and Oliver use commercial transformation to ask how companies change their growth path. The strongest point is the contrast between big, initiative-led change and the quieter work of small improvements that add up over time.

# 41 - Mikkel & Martin: Rethinking Account Management: From Static Plans to Dynamic Client Partnerships

Account planning works when growth priorities, ownership, and resources are lined up.

Mikkel and Martin treat account planning as more than a neat management phrase. They show how it often looks important on paper and still gets handled badly, with too much energy spent on the wrong accounts.

# 35 - Brian & Mikkel - What We Do At Kvadrant Consulting

A clear look at how a professional services firm uses marketing when the firm itself is the product.

Brian and Mikkel treat a familiar professional services question with enough clarity to make it feel specific: what does marketing look like when the firm is the product?

#47 - Mikkel & Brian: From Selling Hardware to Software - Making the Shift Possible

Hardware-to-software is less about the pitch than the go-to-market design.

The episode treats the SaaS shift as a real commercial problem for hardware companies moving toward software, where the draw is higher margins and recurring subscription revenue.

# 37 - Charlotte & Brian: The Importance of Websites

A website has to earn its place in the buying journey, not just look polished.

Websites are framed as working tools rather than prestige projects, and Charlotte and Brian keep that distinction front and center. They make a solid case that a site matters most when the buying process is complex, because buyers need more than a few bullets and a neat fact…

# 36 - Martin & Jeppe: Insights on Teton AI with Claus Ipsen

A practical look at healthcare software, procurement, and complex buying decisions.

The episode treats commercial discipline as a practical habit, not a slogan. Claus Ipsen and the hosts trace how a healthcare software team works back from the frontline to the buyer, with procurement framed as risk management and an RFP answered too late landing as a real…

#48 - Hannibal & Mikkel: The GenAI Revolution - Scaling AI Assistants in Commercial Operations

A practical look at GenAI for commercial operations, strongest when it turns to scale and workflow.

This episode treats GenAI as a workflow problem, not a slogan. It works best when it shifts from broad hype-cycle talk to the day-to-day reality of commercial operations inside large, multinational companies.

#44 - The New Growth Agenda

A practical take on turning organic-growth ideas into commercial execution.

The discussion keeps coming back to a simple problem: how organic growth actually happens in commercial work, not just in theory. It treats the book as a response to that question, then moves through the data work, the survey findings, and the way those ideas are meant to shape…
