John Chan
CEO, Growth Strategist
Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada
Summary
👤
SeniorJohn Chan is a growth-focused founder and former designer-turned-developer with 11 years of experience building and scaling SaaS and e-commerce products. As CEO and Growth Strategist at 2x, he leads a tight performance marketing team that combines paid ads, lifecycle email, and high-converting landing pages to drive tens of millions in traffic. His background spans hands-on UX, conversion optimization, and teaching web development—roles at 37signals, Lighthouse Labs, and Dayboard shaped his data-driven approach to product distribution. He’s as comfortable writing front-end code and curricula as he is iterating ad creative and funnels, which helps bridge product and growth execution. Based in Vancouver, he also co-founded communities like Vancouver Growth Hackers and brings the discipline of a nationally ranked Taekwondo competitor to team leadership and process. An ADHD diagnosis at 34 gave him fresh perspective on attention design—both in product and personal productivity.
