Hello! I'm Kuba — I hope you're having a great day! :)
I'm an experienced Growth Marketer, data-driven Product Manager, 5-star Startup Mentor, Media Buyer for Fortune 500 & YC companies and certified Team Manager. Ex-Ladder.io as Head of Paid Social where I helped scale the agency from 1 to 50+ people.
You might want to check recommendations I was given by my Mentees (140+), certificates I was awarded (80+; Top 1% CXL) or books I think you'll enjoy (under hobbies tab).
I have a good understanding of technical aspects like APIs, front web dev, tracking, CRO, web analytics and automations. What's more, I have a business degree and believe that: PMF & retention first, paid acquisition later. And products should grow via Product-Led Growth.
In 2021, I became a Startup Mentor. Since then, I advised 100+ growth marketers, product owners and startup founders on topics ranging from Paid Social and PPC through growth models and strategy to CRO, product management and automations. I believe giving back to the community, eg. by sharing the journey and results — both good and bad ones — is essential.

Kuba is a great mentor! He has a wealth of knowledge and can provide advice with examples from his experience at a dizzying rate! His strategic perspective followed by digging into tactics that can be tested was really impressive — as with anything in marketing, we don't know until we test. Kuba asks all the right questions to get the most out of a session. I have pages of notes for my next month's experiments. Book with him and thank me later! 5*
Kuba is an amazing person, who wants to help others to learn and become better as Growth Marketers. He came very prepared to our session and had so much value and knowledge to share with me. I highly recommend booking a session with him!
Wish there was a 6th star to leave as a review. Highly highly recommend having a conversation with him, a real top class mentor! Kuba was super go-out-of-the-way helpful and arguably the best session I've booked on here. He took the time to do a deep-dive on my company, the website, and other specifics before the call to ensure that I am able to gain max. value from the call. (…) Came out feeling both unstuck (after a week of being overwhelmed) and equipped with tactics, approaches, methodologies, etc. Thank you so so much.
Kuba was awesome to chat too. Such great knowledge into all areas and very helpful advice which we will use. Will definitely be looking to book multiple more sessions with him and dive a bit more deeper into things as we chat more
The call with Kuba was easily worth hundreds if not thousands of dollars. I got super actionable tips on my account structure in Facebook Ads. We talked about processes for ad creative, best practices for campaigns, CBO, targeting and more. I'll be implementing all of these tips in the coming weeks and I'm sure it'll help us grow a lot more consistently. Thanks Kuba!
Kuba really helped me out big time! I had been struggling getting conversion tracking for Google Ads set up correctly for a few weeks. Kuba took the time to go through all the settings in Google Tag Manager, Google Analytics and Google Ads with me and we even repeated the process for my second website. He also shared some great resources so I can learn to do this stuff myself. Thanks so much :-)
Kuba was an absolute pleasure to speak with on our mentoring call. He was able to absorb very quickly he story of my mistake filled entrepreneurial journey so far and had several thoughts and recommendations which resonated strongly. Kuba was able to offer first-hand advice as good or better than some I've paid thousands of dollars for to other "advisors" along my way to seeking roduct-market-fit. Highly recommend any founder to reach out to Kuba, and I do plan to speak with him again soon.
I just had my first mentor call on GrowthMentor with Kuba and it was great! He was very knowledgeable, friendly and so easy to talk to. I needed advice on marketing strategy, as well as hiring. We went over all of my questions and now I have a list of things to research and work on, which is great! I really appreciate that he spent more time than scheduled to share his feedback and I will definitely keep in touch for follow up advice.
I could tell Kuba really took time to prepare for our call. He was able to give really helpful advice and followed it up with resources that were not previously on my radar. Kuba reviewed our product and site and had loads of ideas to improve our social proof based upon what he has seen work with other product he has worked with. Excellent advice - Thank you again Kuba
Kuba is a really smart guy. It is not easy to process a lot of new information in real time, make an opinion and give the right advise. Kuba is able to do so and gave us a lot of valuable advise where we need to look into our facebook campaign structure to find flaws and fix them. What I value a lot as well is that we even talked quite longer as I booked and he was relaxed till the last minute. Great expertise and great mentor. Thanks Kuba!
Excellent session! I got so much value from it. Kuba was super friendly and patient (I had many questions). He took the time to review our creative beforehand, shared with me his framework to assess campaigns and structure them and gave me tons of tips and ideas to optimise and test. I will def book a follow-up session with him.
I had my first mentor call on GrowthMentor. It was absolutely amazing. The best part is that Kuba had already done his research and came prepared with specific bullet points. He answered half my questions even before I asked. Very comfortable to talk to him. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for some deep insights in Digital Marketing/Agency space.
