"It's not the smartest or the quickest that survive, but those who are most responsive and able to change." - Andrew Davies.

Andrew Davies is the Chief Marketing Officer at Paddle, a payments infrastructure for SaaS businesses. He has extensive experience building out leading go-to-market strategies, building an unignorable brand, and winning customers at scale.

Andrew Davies is a risk-taker who loves working with intelligent people and building high-performing teams. He believes that when scaling a business, having a team that works well together and understands the game's rules is more important than having the smartest individuals.

Through his journey, Andrew learned about using strategic narratives and category creation, which involves having a differentiated point of view, creating a mini-category, and having patience with the process.

He experienced this first-hand when working with a private equity firm, forming a narrative from disparate businesses and creating a mini-category of content intelligence. Andrew's experience taught him that the best stories are ones that customers can communicate within their organization.
