Show Notes:

In this episode of @BusinessGrowthSpotlight Growth Spotlight, host Heidi Schalk sits down with Titus Capilnean, Director of Marketing at @CivicTechnologies, to explore how technology—and especially artificial intelligence (AI)—is transforming the way businesses grow and scale.
Titus shares his perspective on using AI as a practical business tool instead of just another buzzword, and how small teams with limited budgets can still create significant impact. He highlights the role of community engagement, audience definition, and smart resource allocation in building long-term success.

The conversation also covers Civic’s future vision in authentication and AI innovation, along with predictions on how AI will shape the future of B2B growth strategies. Plus, Titus challenges the idea that businesses need to appear “perfect” to thrive and instead emphasizes authenticity as a driver of trust and visibility.
