Solve & Scale with Marcio Arnecke
Episode 60
Monday, 13 April, 2026
Some leaders thrive on stability. Others thrive on chaos. So what does it actually take to lead marketing inside a company that’s scaling fast, solving new problems daily, and trying to democratize access to tools that were once reserved for big enterprises? In this episode, Apollo CMO Marcio Arnecke joins Lindsay to talk about resilience, moving fast without burning out your team, and why “progress over perfection” is more than just a catchy phrase when you're building in hyper-growth mode. You’ll hear them discuss: Why solving internal problems quickly can be one of the most energizing parts of leading in a hyper-growth startup How Marcio’s Brazilian upbringing and international leadership experience shape the way he builds and manages global teams The leadership mindset behind “progress over perfection” and why speed often matters more than flawless execution in fast-scaling companies How risk looks different in startups versus large public companies and why moving slowly can sometimes be the biggest risk of all Why strong marketing shifts from feature-focused messaging to value-driven storytelling as companies scale What happens when product strategy, buyer reality, and go-to-market plans fall out of alignment, and how to recognize the disconnect early How curiosity, experimentation, and hands-on leadership help marketers stay ahead as AI reshapes the future of the industry Resources: Marcio Arnecke on Apollo | LinkedIn Lindsay Pedersen - Contact me to tell me who you'd like to hear as a guest! | Connect with me on LinkedIn
