About Dave Riggs

Optimizing over $1B in paid marketing spend since 2007 taught me: Traditional marketing is out of touch with the times. Successful brands of tomorrow leverage technology to test faster, learn faster, and grow faster for the future — with fewer people. So I started APEX to share the tools of global growth titans and pioneer Growth as a Service (or GaaS). Our proven $100M+ growth frameworks support every stage – from high-growth startups to Fortune companies. Enterprise companies struggle with slow growth because: Bureaucratic systems block breakthroughs Having too many cooks in the kitchen creates chaos Internal teams are inundated with requests from all over High-growth startups scale quickly but suffer later when: Growth slows down Systems built by false hires break Money is wasted on bad spending strategy Our team of engineering, product, data, design, and marketing experts have seen it all. We’ve refined-by-fire our growth frameworks through decades of experience growing brands like Lyft, Disney, Shopify, Amazon, and TransUnion. Tactics and growth hacks don’t set you up for success.
