In this episode of The Growth Class, host Phil Masiello interviews Aaron Zagha, Chief Marketing Officer of Newton Baby. They discuss how Newton Baby scaled from an early-stage direct-to-consumer brand into a trusted leader in the baby sleep category by leveraging influencer marketing, disciplined product launches, and data-driven decision-making.

Aaron shares insights into how influencer partnerships helped build early trust in sensitive parenting communities, why forecasting demand during product launches remains one of the most difficult operational challenges, and how stockouts or excess inventory can significantly impact growth and profitability.

There are a lot of "experts" out there giving advice who’ve never built a thing. They’ve never stayed up all night sweating a product launch. Never had to scale a team. Never had to meet payroll.

They’re just regurgitating what they read in someone else’s book.

That’s not me.
I’ve built brands. I’ve scaled them. I’ve exited them. I’ve failed, won, and fought through it all.

And now, my team and I help brands do it every single day — across eCommerce, retail, and digital.
We don’t just advise — we execute.
We write the playbook.

So if you’re done with fluff, fake gurus, and marketers who’ve never sold anything outside of a slide deck — you’re in the right place.

This show is real strategies, real tactics, and real talk.
