Famous examples

Why are Growth Teams Taking Over The World?


Why is Growth Hacking Important?

1. Traditional marketing channels are increasingly expensive and saturated



2. Most projects focus heavily on product, but the real challenge is with

distribution

Startups don’t fail because they lack a product; they fail because they lack customers and a profitable business model. - Steve Blank

“Startups focus too much on building product with limited attention to customer interaction, usability, and marketing. This is also a big fail." - Dave McClure

"Poor distribution—not product—is the number one cause of failure. " - Peter Thiel
