2027 Starts Now: The 3-Pillar Growth Playbook for Founders Planning Their Next Year
It's that time of year: budgets, headcount plans and revenue targets for 2027 are getting locked in.
Before you set next year's numbers, ask yourself: is your 2027 number backed by a predictable growth engine, or by hope?
For some founders, growth has stalled or fallen short of ambition. For others, revenue is coming in, but it's lumpy, dependent on a handful of heroic efforts or single number of clients, and hard to forecast with confidence. Whichever describes you, carrying the same engine into 2027 usually means carrying the same results with it.
Join Julien Perol, a revenue leader with 15+ years of experience building, scaling and turning around commercial teams across Asia, for a practical planning-season session on the three pillars worth getting right before you finalise next year's plan:
Clarity: Know where you're going, what matters most, and what will drive growth.
Operational Structure: Build the GTM model, processes and ownership needed to support the strategy.
Sales Execution: Turn strategy into results through strong sales methodology, cadence, KPIs and forecasting discipline.
This isn't sales theory. It's a field-tested framework built over a decade of creating high-performing teams and revenue engines, applied directly to the decisions founders and CEOs are making right now.
Who this is for: Founders and CEOs of SME and mid-market companies heading into 2027 planning, whether you need to reignite growth or make the growth you have predictable and scalable.
