THE GROWTH MACHINE
Doing growth hacking the right way 
- including free resources and templates -
based on hands-on execution from growing 10+ companies
Uber got their first 10.000 drives mostly
from early adopter advocacy in the tech
crowds of San Francisco 
Dropbox got 70.000 users overnight by
creating a 2 min video intended for a
Digg audience
Airbnb hustled their first $30k by
designing politically themed cereal
boxes 
Dropbox got 70.000 users overnight by creating a
2 min video intended for a Digg audience
What works
for them will
not work for
you…

THIS IS BULLSHIT
Growth hacking done the right way - our experience building 10+ companies - free templates included
In 1948 Brownie Wise invented the
Tupperware Party to distribute the
product
It was the first growth hack
The way your customers meet your
product is part of your product
“Your audience is different
Your product is different
Your customer journey is different

Your BUSINESS is different”
Brian Balfour

The number one reason that we pass on
entrepreneurs we’d otherwise like to back
is that they focus on product to the
exclusion of everything else...

Many entrepreneurs who build great
products simply don’t have a good
distribution strategy. Even worse is
when they insist that they don’t need one,
or call no distribution strategy a “viral
marketing strategy”.
– Marc Andreesen

Our story
In the process of
building 10+
companies we did
several experiments
Complication

Many opportunities
Lack of insights
So much noise
Outcome

No prioritization
No awareness of impact vs. costs
No learning
NOT ABLE TO
SEE ANYTHING
Growth hacking done the right way - our experience building 10+ companies - free templates included
We needed a structure
We needed a process
to provide us the tactics
We needed a GROWTH MACHINE
