This week on How to Win: Rytis Lauris, co-founder and CEO of Omnisend, an all-in-one e-commerce marketing automation platform founded in 2014. Omnisend has expanded rapidly in the last two years, with ARR now hovering around $30M, 190 global employees, and more than 60 000 customers. In this episode, Rytis shares how Omnisend competes in a crowded space, the importance of timing, and how they built up their brand through original content. I add my thoughts on agency partner programs, the pros and cons of VC funding in a company’s early days, and the game is rigged to benefit larger companies.
