Scale-Up Methodology
Expert scaling whilst retaining your original purpose
Your business was founded on strong core principles, underpinned by a clear purpose. You are rapidly scaling your product, organisation and culture at the same time as trying to stay close to that purpose and your values. You need investors who understand this balance and the challenges you face. When you choose an investor there can be no trade-off between business and purpose. That’s scaling with purpose. At Frog we have codified it into our Scale-Up Methodology.
Our Scale-Up Methodology is a framework designed to help leaders like you. It is built upon experience of over a hundred scale-up journeys with insights, podcasts and toolkits for high performing, collaborative leadership teams. Paired with Frog’s comprehensive Operating Partner team, our Scale-Up Methodology focuses on providing world class support for your rapidly growing purpose-led software businesses.
