10x Your Team with Cam & Otis

The Human Side of Business Systems - Drew Lints | 10x Your Team Ep. #440

Episode 440

Ever worked with a leader who treated everything as "urgent" until nothing felt important anymore? In this conversation with Drew Lints, founder of Revflow Growth Partners, Cam and Otis explore the human side of business systems and how the right tools can actually help leaders care for their people better.

"At the end of the day, we want to accomplish the thing that I was so bad at early on—keeping track of everyone, making sure that they're cared for," Drew explains, revealing how his own leadership journey shaped his approach to CRM and business systems.

From discussing the fine line between genuine urgency and manufactured pressure to exploring alternatives to expensive enterprise solutions like Salesforce and HubSpot, this episode offers practical insights for leaders looking to grow without losing the human connection. Drew shares how simple tools—even just an Excel spreadsheet with names and personal details—can transform how leaders engage with their teams and clients.

Whether you're scaling a business, leading a team, or just trying to bring more intentionality to your work, Drew's approach to "efficiency creates clarity, and clarity unlocks growth" offers a refreshing perspective on how technology can enhance rather than replace human connection.

More About Drew:
I help organizations unlock growth by building smarter systems, clearer strategies, and more efficient workflows. As Founder & CEO of Revflow Growth Partners, I bring over 25 years of experience in coaching, consulting, and revenue leadership.

My journey began in 1999, leading people, building teams, and driving mission-focused growth. Those years shaped my passion for aligning vision with strategy and creating systems that help people flourish.

In 2023, I launched Revflow to scale that mission. Today, we design CRMs, automations, and growth systems that eliminate waste, create clarity, and drive lasting results. I also provide fractional CRO services, helping companies accelerate revenue and scale without the cost of a full-time executive.

At my core, I believe efficiency creates clarity, and clarity unlocks growth.
