During this time when many companies are playing “defense” there are still many playing “offense.” The data from PeerSignal shows consistent growth among companies that use a product-led growth strategy. 

Notion has been particularly on the offense recently with letting employees sell stock, making acquisitions, and launching a global ad campaign.
