the business, one of my favourite blogs for learning about startup growth was
http://www.startup-marketing.com
by Sean Ellis:the God father of Growth
hacking.
Growth hacking has become the cool thing of the day, but there has been
confusion about the difference between growth hacking and traditional
marketing.
The confusion has risen because of two reasons:
1) A lack of a better term other than Growth hacking
2) The notion that growth hacking is about hacks
To address the lack of a better term for Growth hacking, I propose replacing
Growth Hacking with Growth Marketing.
Growth marketing focuses on
the process to find facts about the complete funnel to
drive growth.
When Sean Ellis used the term Growth Hacking, he was using the term to
describe the process of finding growth as opposed to hacking together a list of
random tactics in the hope of getting something to work.
As
Sean Ellis
puts it, startups that pursue growth have to dig deep creatively,
and relentlessly test new ideas .
Scientists find facts by following an iterative scientific process which looks like
this.
Most high growth companies have a growth model which is based loosely on
the scientific process and other fields, such as lean.
The process behind growth marketing in most growth companies is an iterative
model that falls under these categories:
1. Exploration & Discovery
2. Testing & experimentation
3. Playbooks & Systems
Brain Balfour
VP of Growth at Hubspot,
puts it:
There is no one right or perfect
growth process. The important part is just to have one, stick to it, and improve it
over time.
This phase can be conducted in any number of ways. It can be done via
customer interviews, brainstorming sessions, customer observation,
researching competitors or industry best practise, reading etc
For Veeqos marketing team this stage normally starts with a brainstorming
session, looking at customer data or performing market research.
Once we have completed the exploration and discovery phase we create a
backlog of the ideas we have, the ideas go into a sheet that looks like this:

Experiment results are analysed daily for new experiments and weekly for
ongoing experiments we already have initial data for.
If an experiment does not work, we mark the experiment as failed and write
down the reasons why the experiment failed, writing down the reasons why an
experiment failed helps us go back to the experiment in the future and change a
control element in that experiment for a new experiment to begin.
Playbooks and Systems
When an experiment is successful, the experiment goes into a playbook
document.
The experiment can then be repeated several times over.
I hope you have found this useful, good luck in your pursuit of finding facts
about your product, customers and how to reach them.
