Bad Birdie, a golf apparel company known for its bold designs and modern approach to golf fashion, was experiencing rapid growth. As the founder, Jason was overwhelmed with the challenges of scaling the company and needed a trusted COO to manage day-to-day operations.
To find the perfect fit, Jason turned to Y Scouts, hoping for a partner that could not only understand the business but also guide him through the process of finding a leader who would help take Bad Birdie to the next level.
Jason faced a major challenge: finding someone he could trust with the autonomy to run the business. He was nervous about the process and worried whether the search firm would truly understand his needs and the company’s culture.
He initially feared that the search would result in generic candidates, as many firms use a top-down approach, not fully immersing themselves in their clients’ businesses. Time constraints also posed a challenge, as Jason couldn’t dedicate hours to the hiring process.
Y Scouts jumped in, deeply integrating themselves into Bad Birdie’s team, learning the company inside and out. They worked tirelessly to optimize Jason’s time, providing high-level candidate summaries and edited videos, reducing what would have been hours of work to just 30 minutes of review per candidate.
The selected leader not only had extensive experience with cloud-based products but also demonstrated a proven ability to build and lead high-performing tech teams. Most importantly, he embodied the core values of integrity and kindness that were so vital to the company’s culture.
“I couldn’t ask for more. They were with me every step of the way, ensuring we found the right leader to help scale the company.”
Y Scouts not only delivered an exceptional leader but also became an integral partner in Bad Birdie’s journey toward growth. Their deep understanding of the unique challenges faced by entrepreneurs and their personalized approach ensured that Jason found the perfect COO to help scale the company.
