Launch of the audiobook for Ready Set Growth Hack [UPDATE]

Nader Sabry is a strategist, innovator, and entrepreneur in NASA space tech, government, and health/wellness. Has raised $20m directly /+$100m indirectly for startups and is a bestselling author of “ Ready Set growth Hack: A beginners guide to growth hacking success ” which is a growth blueprint for organizations to achieve 10x growth. 

 

Bestselling Ready Set growth Hack: A beginner’s guide to growth hacking success is now in audio after much demand for readers wanting an audio version. This blueprint, better known as the growth code, is a step-by-step approach developed over the past 25 years.

Sabry has raised $120 Million, helping startups, start, scale, and exit. As an entrepreneur, a consultant, and even a policy-maker, he saw every possible perspective one can encounter. After he sold his last company in 2017, he pondered over some essential questions: 

Why do some organizations grow and not others,
Why do some organizations do not grow at all,
Why do some organizations start growing, then stop, and
Why do some organizations don’t start growing but do later 

Then he went deep into his vault of experiences and knowledge, 25+ startups, 115+ clients, and four significant governments of learning, and his next significant creation came about—a blueprint designed to help others repeat that success, a blueprint known as the growth code.

 

Hacking growth 

When we first hear the word “HACK,” we are thrown off…we all assume “HACKING” is terrible, but it isn’t. A hack is a shortcut, whether for growth, a bio-hack, or even a life-hack.

Growth hacking is essentially a shortcut to growth. This shortcut is a transition point between taking four units of effort to get one unit of results, taking one unit of effort, and getting four units of results. This is the disproportionate outcome that leads to massive growth.  

It is a rapidly emerging discipline that brings technology, marketing, and business to a meeting point where they all agree to serve towards growth. It’s a new corporate superpower, but it is enjoyed by the elite startups of Silicon Valley but by corporations, governments, secret societies, and even organized crime groups. 

 

Getting 10x results and its realities

We all know and hear about 10x growth, but what is it? The blueprint is Ready Set Growth Hack answers precisely that, the “how to..” This approach gives you the step-by-step approach based on the growth cycle, a 3 step process that finds the growth problem, tackles that problem with a growth hack, and scales it into full-scale operations. 

Growth in the context of a post-COVID19 economy

The reality is in the post-COVID-19 economy; we will be facing an even massive growth dilemma. With fewer resources, more uncertainty, and only more competition, growth becomes even more critical. Oddly enough, growth now becomes a center stage, which might sound pretty obvious, but has been neglected due to too many theories, lack of focus and merely enough wiggle room to allow poor performance to continue.

To grow or not to grow. 

This all derives from what I call the growth dilemma. The growth dilemma is every CEO, founder, leader, and executive’s ordeal. It usually sneaks up on you at the start of the year, the beginning of the month, and the quarter. This predicament is when you have great growth goals but don’t have the means to pull it off—being short of resources like money, people, time, tools, technology, training, and even mindset. We all know this moment when we have to confront weak performance and deliver the bad news in the aftermath. So this situation is where growth hacking comes into play. Significant results achieved without all the resources. 

There is little to no business marketing, or special knowledge is required to make growth hacking happen, and remember, there is no one size fits all or a single silver bullet equation to this. It’s about discovering what works for you in a systematic and structured manner. 

 

What is growth hacking

The biggest testament to growth hacking is unicorns (billion dollar startup companies) as this is their secret weapon.  This is when a small never heard about startup company disrupt a space they dominate and control by significantly shifting everything.  Those new rules are defined and pushed by growth hackers who leverage that for their own gains.  

A straightforward and powerful way of understanding  growth hacking is about getting disproportionate results—fewer inputs, for a much more significant outcome. The transition point in the middle is where a growth hacker does his/her magic by using  fewer resources to generate a disproportionate result with a massive ROI (return on investment).

GROWTH HACKING SUCCESS FORMULA 

(Mindset + process) x (culture + strategy) x (talent + technology) 

Although we get caught-up on tech, without the right mindset and process to drive it, then culture and strategy cannot form a direction, let alone align the right talent and technology to grow.. 

This is defined by a growth hacking mindset that endorses a culture of being lean, quick, and very tech-oriented. Although tech plays a significant part, this doesn’t mean you have to be a tech business, as many past cases have proven even traditional business models tap into growth hacking, including companies like McDonald’s. 

 

The great economic reboot

An extensive economic reboot is going to happen. The scary part is that several authorities don’t even see it and be able to describe it to everyday people. That is where a considerable surprise will come for many. The essence of this is going back to basics. What I like to call it though is “forward to basics.”

Forward to basic is essential, concentrating on basics but using technology and existing advanced infrastructure to supercharge our ability to use those basics in a few ways:

Is it fast and more focused way
In a more optimized manner
With a lower entry cost
A leaning operating cost
Wider reaching capabilities 

Moving forward, there will be a big focus on tech, a notable shift in culture, and mass uncertainty. The blend of these three things will enforce this economic reboot.  

Finally, it’s time for “forward to basics.” As tight and painful as it might feel right now, this will not last forever, and this is the time to act on the creation of new opportunities. I believe we have two types of entrepreneurs — those who Creating the future – defining, developing, and leading Vs. Meeting the future – being responsive and adaptive to change. Neither is wrong or right; it’s a matter of making a conversions decision and growth hacking your way to exponential growth.

Five Ways Growth Hacking Can Help In A Post COVID-19 Economy

With fewer resources, more uncertainty, and more and more competition, growth will become even more critical in the Post COVID-19 Economy.

Are you feeling numb, disoriented, or even very uncertain about what is about to happen? You are not alone, because you are asking yourself pretty much the same question as every other entrepreneur on the planet. However, I am a big believer that entrepreneurs can find solutions to the most concerning world issues, and lead with grace, prominence, and compassion.

The amazing thing is that we are in the midst of the single largest prosperity creation machine of our time. It doesn’t seem like it from where we stand right now, but if you recall the global financial crisis of 2008, the dot-bomb crash of 2001, and the oil crash of 1991, we made it. Yet, this by far isn’t the same thing. But again, by no means is the COVID19 crisis the end of the world; instead, it is truly game-changing, and that is precisely why it is such a big opportunity. It might feel painful now, but it will not be forever as it will shift and dramatically change everything.

The growth dilemma and the future 

At the beginning of every year, quarter, month, and even week, all leaders, managers, and entrepreneurs face what I call the “growth dilemma.”

[image error]

It is when their substantial goals, backed by immense ambitions, do not match the resources they have to make it possible. This is how performance culture is hard-coded into using vanity metrics, fancy illusive ideas as a diversion, and just pure lousy performance. Almost always, the challenge with this is that we don’t have the resources, tools, people, and even the capabilities on hand to hit those performance targets. So, we wing it, and by chance, you might hit it on a one-off time, but you can’t keep it consistent, so it only works for so long. The big issue with that is that our substantial goals and our lack of resources create a big gap for us to bridge. That gap is the growth dilemma.

In bridging this dilemma, we become growth hackers. However, most of us have not been trained for the task, have no resources, not even the mindset of a growth hacker. My book Ready, Set, Growth Hack is a blueprint for solving precisely that. And, having worked with hundreds of CEOs, entrepreneurs, and government leaders over the last 25 years, I have found three types of growth hackers:

Ready to rock’n’roll people Those who think that now is the time to channel that energy to solving that big growth dilemma.
Mastering the universe people Those who harness, embrace and build an entirely new superpower.
Not my area people Those who find someone else to resolve it for them and wait to see where they get.

No matter where you might stand on this, you’re destined to hit a growth hurdle and will have to overcome it whether you like it or not. By embracing growth hacking, you can achieve those exponential growth targets. It is not an impossible dream, but a reality to be achieved every single day.

Growth in the context of a Post COVID-19 Economy

The reality is that in the post-COVID-19 economy, we will be facing an even massive growth dilemma. With fewer resources, more uncertainty, and more and more competition, growth will become even more critical. Oddly enough, growth will now take a center stage, which might sound pretty obvious, but has been neglected due to too many theories, lack of focus and merely enough wiggle room to allow poor performance to continue.

It’s time to get creative- incremental ideas will not sustain anymore. Big, bold, and even outright game-changing ideas will become a norm, not a rare commodity anymore. As this shift takes place, it will be governed by dramatically game-shifting new rules. The pressure is on, and for those running small businesses, it is a matter of do or die.

Even some of the biggest corporations have been hit. For the sake of an example, here are a few coronavirus bankruptcies: Gold’s Gym, Hertz, JCPenney, J.Crew Group, Neiman Marcus, Tuesday Morning, and many more to come, so this will shake-up the world’s economy. However, we will also witness some positive results that will come out of this, but it will take some time, anywhere from 18-24 months from now. Those more encouraging outcomes might be room for new players, more optimized offerings, focused value offerings, low-cost propositions, more digitized delivery methods, home-based consumption, and new creative remote living.

Hacking growth in a Post COVID-19 Economy

Now, we have established that we are entering a whole new world, and the best entrepreneurs must turn off the noise and see the world for what it is- this is when they strike those big, game-changing ideas. The following are five ways for startups to start growth hacking preparations of the post-COVID19 economy.

1. Asymmetrical warfare This is about the small guy winning by using underdog strategies. This isn’t new, it’s as old as warfare itself. There are two factors when a small guy enters an asymmetrical position. First is your opponent(s), and the second is the situation itself. In normal conditions, it would most likely be purely opponent-to-opponent point combat, but in unusual circumstances like now, you will have both factors at play. This is where we are right now.

The opportunity: Their guard is down, and chaos brings new advantages

Hacking growth: Using situations to level out opponents, and visa versa to create favorable outcomes

2. Mastering the challenge There is no smooth ride right now. The good news is that this applies to you as much as to everyone else, but the secret is that the field has been leveled, although many don’t see it yet or enough. With the fall of more significant players, ever-shifting consumption patterns, and outright new forms of competition, the challenge is on, and it’s all good. This is where we are right now.

The opportunity:  The field has been leveled for you

Hacking growth: Find a niche with a significant pain, and bring more value to it than anyone else. Act fast.

3. Embracing the pivot Resilience is the name of the game. Even in a typical situation, failure is inevitable and it is a way how things will shape you into success. But there are two outcomes: (i) you either fall and don’t get up, which is what the majority of people does, or (ii) you have the resilience to get up quickly, try again, and do not stop until you crush it. This is where we are right now.

The opportunity: Most don’t have much to lose at this point

Hacking growth: Mindset shift from being risk averse to taking very bold steps that most are too scared to take right now.

4. Supercharging technology Technology has taken the center stage, but don’t let it throw you off. It is all about utility and value. Without the utility and value that is achieved by using technology, it won’t help you. Hit that equilibrium of utility and value, then overlay it with a sudden surge in adoption due to this pandemic. The result is a dramatic drop in the cost of adoption. This is where we are right now.

The opportunity: Lower acquisition cost, higher lifetime value, high adoption rates

Hacking growth: Hook them now, before you lose their attention, it’s time to immerse your consumers into your works and deep.

5. Collaboration is the new normal Competition is obsolete. Yes, you heard that right. The issue is that we have always been conditioned to be competitive, and even wars, to take it at any cost. That isn’t going to work anymore. People and organizations will become more resourceful and combine their efforts with others to share favorable outcomes they would have otherwise not achieved on their own. This is where we are right now.

The opportunity: Make new friends

Hacking growth: Access the resources and tools you were not able to tap into before, but ensure it’s a balanced equation where everyone wins.

What is growth hacking?

The biggest testament to growth hacking is the success of unicorns as this is their secret weapon. This is when a small never heard about startup company disrupts a space dominated and controlled by big players and significantly shifts everything. Those new rules are defined and pushed by growth hackers who leverage that for their own gains.

[image error]

A straightforward and powerful way of understanding growth hacking is that it is about getting disproportionate results- fewer inputs for a much more significant outcome. The transition point in the middle is where a growth hacker does his/her magic by using fewer resources to generate a disproportionate result with a massive ROI (return on investment).

GROWTH HACKING SUCCESS FORMULA:

(Mindset + process) x (culture + strategy) x (talent + technology) 

Although we get caught-up on tech, without the right mindset and process to drive it, then culture and strategy cannot form a direction, let alone align the right talent and technology to grow.

This is defined by a growth hacking mindset that endorses a culture of being lean, quick, and very tech-oriented. Although tech plays a significant part, this doesn’t mean you have to be a tech business, as many past cases have proven that even traditional business models can tap into growth hacking, including companies like McDonald’s.

The great economic reboot in a Post COVID-19 Economy

A massive economic reboot is taking place. The scary part is that many experts don’t even see it, let alone are able to explain it to everyday people. That is where a massive surprise will come for many. The essence of this is going back to basics. What I like to call it though is “forward to basics.” Forward to basic is essential – it is about focusing on basics but using technology and existing advanced infrastructure to supercharge our ability to use those basics in (1) a fast and more focused way, (2) in a more optimized manner, (3) with a lower entry cost, (4) at a leaning operating cost, and (5) with wider reaching capabilities.

Moving forward, there will be a big focus on tech, a significant shift in culture, and massive uncertainty. The combination of these three things will enforce his economic reboot especially in a Post COVID-19 Economy.

Therefore, it is time for “forward to basics”, so use those five growth hacking opportunities to supercharge your startup.

THE GROWTH DILEMMA 

Leaders, managers, executives, and even consultants at the start of the year, quarter, month, and even weekly face what I call the “growth dilemma.”

This dilemma is when big goals backed by big ambitions are set, and hard-coded into performance measures. The challenge with this 94% of the time, we don’t have the resources, tools, people, and even the capabilities on hand to hit those performance targets. Often this is why we would even exist, to begin with. The big issue with that is the big goals and lack of resources we are left to bridge that gap. That gap is the growth dilemma. 

In bridging this dilemma, we become growth hackers. The challenge with that is that most of us have not been trained, given the resources, or even have the mindset of a growth hacker. My bestselling book, “Ready Set Growth hack,” is a blueprint for solving precisely that. 

 

IN CONTEXT OF A POST COVID-19 ECONOMY

The reality is in the post-COVID-19 economy; we will be facing an even massive growth dilemma. With fewer resources, more uncertainty, and only more competition, growth becomes even more critical. Oddly enough, growth now becomes a center stage, which might sound pretty obvious, but has been neglected due to too many theories, lack of focus and merely enough wiggle room to allow poor performance to continue.

It’s time to get creative; incremental ideas will not sustain anymore. Big, bold, and even outright game-changing ideas will become a norm, not a rare commodity. As this shift takes place, this is governed by many new rules being created. The pressure is on, and for those running small businesses, it’s a matter of doing or die. Even some of the biggest corporations have been hit. 

Here are a few coronavirus bankruptcies as an example (Source)

Gold’s Gym
Hertz
JCPenney
J.Crew Group
Neiman Marcus
Tuesday Morning

Many more to come, and this will shake-up the economy. We have some excellent outcomes that will come out of this, eventually. But this will take some time; it can take anywhere from 18-24 months from now. Those outcomes would be:

Room for new players
More optimized offerings
Focused value offerings
Low-cost propositions
More digitized delivery methods
Home-based consumption 
New creative remote living

 

THE GREAT ECONOMIC REBOOT

A massive economic reboot is taking place. The scary part is that many of the experts don’t even see it and let alone be able to explain it to everyday people. That is where a massive surprise will come for many. The essence of this is going back to basics. What I like to call it though is “forward to basics.”

Forward to basic is essential, focusing on basics but using technology and existing advanced infrastructure to supercharge our ability to use those basics in a few ways:

Is it fast and more focused way
In a more optimized manner
With a lower entry cost
A leaning operating cost
Wider reaching capabilities 

Moving forward, there will be a big focus on tech, a significant shift in culture, and mass uncertainty. The combination of these three things will enforce his economic reboot.  

 

WHAT IS GROWTH HACKING

Straightforwardly and powerfully, growth hacking is about getting disproportionate results—fewer inputs, for a much more significant outcome. The transition point is in the middle where a growth hacker takes fewer resources to generate a much more significant result or a massive ROI (return on investment).

This is government by a growth hacking mindset that instills a culture of being lean, quick, and very tech-oriented. Although tech plays a big part, this doesn’t mean you have to be a tech business, as many past cases have proven even traditional business models tap into growth hacking, including companies like McDonald’s. 

 

HOW TO GROW IN A POST COVID-19 ECONOMY

At the core of growth, hacking is asymmetrical warfare in its essence; this is the small guy winning using underdog strategies. Often this is governed by an uneven relationship between opponents but also situations. In this case of a post-COVID-19 economy, it’s both opponent and the situation.

Now given there are two significant factors at play, this doesn’t change how you would grow in a non-COVID-19 environment; it just changes the intensity, the speed, and the risks. That said, it’s even more important to be focused on growth hacking whether you’re a startup, a corporation, or even a government. 

Making this happen is mastering the challenge. It starts with acknowledging it for what it is, building the growth mindset, developing a culture of performance with an open and flexible approach, and putting bold strategies in place. The most crucial part is experimentation through excellent execution to find unparalleled growth opportunities. 

Embracing the pivot is crucial, and resilience is a skill you need to master. The good news is that I have an excellent course on this, which is a step-by-step program to help people master resilience.

Finally, we need to understand that life will not be the same. Although the transition period is painful, it’s the other end of the outcome; we have to keep focused on it. A new world will emerge with massive opportunities for everyone.

What are the best viral growth hacks?

What are the best viral growth hacks?

What does it really take to make a viral growth hack. A step by step perspective into how to develop your own viral growth hack

Listen to as a podcast

Listen to “12. What are the best viral growth hacks” on Spreaker.

 

What are the best of viral growth hacks.

So before we get started, check out this guy and this guy is doing something absolutely genius and he absolutely fails at doing it. This video has gone viral and we’re not just talking about viral videos, but we are talking about how to not mess it up. Before we get started, definitely hit the subscribe button on my channel. Hit the bell button to you’re completely and always notified. Hit the like, share this video and at the end of this video I have one big promise for you. I have a hundred dollars bonus. I will tell you how to avail it. Once we reached the end of this video, viral growth hacks have a formula to it. It’s about getting, driving, spreading, and then boosting attention. The challenge with that is that we are in what I call the attention economy.

getting the numbers right

Several people talk about this. I’m going to throw some stats onto here so that you understand what we’re looking at. We about 7.8 billion people globally, 4.5 billion users on the internet. 3.7 billion of them are active users on social media. On average, an individual has 7.6 social media accounts and the daily average use per person is 142 minutes. The reason I’m bringing this up is it shows you that you are fighting for attention. Fighting for attention means that the level of demand on the content that is being produced and those who consume certain forms of content more, which makes it more viral. So we’re going to break this formula down. We’re going to look at the force of the four components and the first one is getting attention. Getting attention is about emotional hooks that get people in there having fun because people want to escape their daily realities being unique because you stand out and surprising throwing, throwing a wildcard in there that gets people completely thrown off.

viral growth hacks work in several ways not just social media

I do want to mention though, this is not about social media content alone. This is applicable across the board. I’m going to be giving you a few examples later in the video that shows how these are implemented into growth systems. Next part of the equation is driving attention first is incentives all the way. When we talk about some of the examples later on, you can see how some organizations have growth hack have put viral growth tax by creating incentives. Next is about status. So looking good being first, being ahead of the curve, giving people that special exclusive invitation lets people feel that they’re very important, that allows them to drive that viral capability you want. And finally is action, action, actionable rewards. So what I mean by action rewards is um, incentive is one thing. But by taking an action, you’re able to directly incentivize and reward them.

incentives to get people moving along

They do kind of overlap in some ways, but I’d like to always keep them separate because incentive is one thing and getting them to take an action is something completely different. Next is the spread of attention. So first of all is updating all your contacts. Okay? So what that means is CRM, whether you’re doing this via building a system through a CRM or you’re doing it on social media, it’s important that you have your contacts UpToDate and verified and clear so that you’re consistently pounding away at a very good audience that you’re able to get to. Second is connecting them across all platforms, so you need to be on the present. You need to be everywhere possible that you’re pushing out to your audience and creating new networks within them. Find the right time in the right way. This will differ from from sending emails out to social media to developing your product.

getting people to take action

There is a right time right place and you need to figure that out. We will be talking about that in future training because that is a complex formula, but you do need to figure that out and finally is a CTA. You need to call to action. You need to literally ask people to take an action. You can not assume people will actually do something unless you ask them to actually do it. Many people actually forget that. It might be very silly, but very true. Finally is boosting attention. So cross platform credibility. It is important to be credible across many platforms and to ensure that you invest in developing yourself almost platforms, whether it be deliverability and an email system, a social media platforms and sense of being verified too. When you push out your credible and when you get in front of customers, visibility and credibility to lead to profitability.

getting others to spread your viral growth hack for you

Second is get others into the conversation and let them spread it. Uh, engage people. Uh, I’ve seen techniques where people take their early adopters and continuously to drive attention around them so that they feel special through the status that they’ve been given because they’ve gotten access something that others do not. You can play that card. It is extremely effective. Share the viral stats as you move along to a campaign, you get people excited by showing how they are part of a movement taking place of like, you know, you happen to grow by 4000% within the last 24 hours. Those are the kind of things you want to share. It gets people excited knowing that this is going somewhere and so incentivizes and get them excited about going even further and within your network. Ask people to share. So there are two types of CTAs. One is asking them to take an action and one is taking an action towards actually sharing what it is that you’re driving viral.

hotmail. dropbox, TopTal, airbnb and others making it work

So let me give you a few examples. Number one is Hotmail. It’s a classic example of a viral growth hack, a free email in a time when emails used to cost anywhere from five to $15 a month. It’s hard to believe but actually happened and existed. And what they did is in the signature they’ve put an ad to get your own free email. And so drove Hotmails viral growth to a massive level. Dropbox did the same thing by using their customers to create customer reference points. So what they do is get their customers to essentially become their sales force, uh, by incentivizing them to do so. Another company that does does that very well. But on a B2B level, for those who are tuning in are in the B2B level is top talent. So TopTal is a talent network that helps you recruit the best possible talent in the world.

Big incentives big payouts it works…

And by doing so, you get high incentives. I’ve heard of things of people being paid up to $2,000 to making projects happen, which is pretty cool. Finally is a company, I don’t know if you all heard of, but it’s called naked pizza. And what naked pizza did very well is they deliver pizzas, they incentivized, uh, their delivery guys to take their brochures and drop them off, uh, along the way as they go up or in a building or different places as they go along. So when people see a pizza, smell a pizza and then they have a way to take action because they can actually choose from a menu, call in and make that call. So it can be done in traditional businesses, tech businesses, it applies across the board. So as we reached the end, put in the comments below. I got a viral growth hack.

share, get feedback and drive action at the right time

Share your ideas, give me feedback. So if you have an idea towards a potential viral growth hack, put it in the comments below. Use the hashtag growth hacking because we’d like to get the growth hacking community involved. Now we’ve reached the end. It’s time to deliver on my promise. I would like to give you access. It is on a limited time, a limited quantity. It is my level one certified growth Ninja course. It’s a $100 course I’m offering for free.

Sales funnel VS. growth hacking the difference

Sales funnel VS. growth hacking the difference

What is the real difference between a sales funnel and growth hacking and how do they work together to super charge your growth.

Listen to as a podcast

Listen to “11. Sales funnel VS. growth hacking” on Spreaker.

sales funnels versus growth hacking

Sales funnels versus growth hacking. Check this lady out. She has just gone. That’s any know what? I don’t blame her because sales funnels have become so complicated. Although a funnel is very simple in the way it works, we’ve all lost track of what it is. Before we get started, I’d like you to hit the subscribe button down below and don’t forget to hit the bell button like this video. Share it with those that can benefit and if you stay to the end, I have $100 bonus for you. Let’s get started. We’re talking about sales funnels versus growth hacking. The problem with a sales funnel, well, let’s start with what is a sales funnel in its most basic essence, a sales funnel is a sales process. That’s is exactly what it is, but a sales process in itself is not enough, and I call this the ping pong effect.

ping pong effect, sales funnels vs growth hacking

What is the ping pong effect? It’s when the sales team steps back and says, Hey, this systems and the leadership and the processes within the organization don’t serve sales. And it happens the other way, way wrong the other way around as well. When people look at revenue driven by sales, they’re taking look at the sales side saying, Hey, why aren’t you driving sales? Because we’ve got the processes, the systems, and the strategies in place. So often what happens is a disconnect between the two. And that disconnect creates what I call the ping pong effect, where the sales funnel is disconnected for the remaining of the organization. Where does a sales funnel fail? It essentially fails in two categories. One is when it’s standalone and two, when it’s not integrated. What I mean by standalone is, as I mentioned in the first example about the ping pong, that’s one of the best examples.

when sales and marketing don’t align do not align

Um, other examples when it stand alone is when say for example, sales and marketing don’t align or where sales is in another world, marketing is another world. And all the other disciplines in the organizations are disconnected, which drives to the second factor why most sales funnels actually fail. Is that not integrated? Now, integration is not necessarily a technical or tools or technology, although that’s a large part of it, but also connected within the strategy itself. Um, you’ve heard terms like we are a sales oriented organization. We are an engineering oriented organization. This is predominantly the prevailing characteristics of a culture that an organization would use to communicate and work its processes. Now I’m not here to debate what is a better organization, a sales oriented or a engineering oriented organization. The point though is that you need to be able to integrate because as an organization you need several disciplines and components to work in order to grow.

a different perspective on sales funnels

So what I’m going to do is I have a different perspective on sales funnels. I do not choose or tell you one sales funnel is better than the other. What I do though is I focus on the anatomy of a sales funnel. That anatomy allows me to demonstrate to you the spectrum of how you’d be looking at a sales funnel. And how you choose to design that, whether it be a generic one you take off the shelf one that you designed for yourself or once someone puts into place or a hybrid that’s actually irrelevant. But what I’m going to do is break down the anatomy for you. So I’m going to whip onto the screen over here. The generic growth system. This is a partial growth system, not a full growth system. We’ve talked about this in other videos and I will touch on it again, the essence of the mechanics of a sales funnel are four things.

maximizes exposure at the top

Number one is an entry point that maximizes exposure at the top. Second is a nurturing mechanism that leads to qualifying that large exposure we have at the top and then conversion of interest into revenue. It’s now taking that exposure, pushing the mechanics to qualify and then taking the qualify and converting that into revenue. And then finally at the bottom is the part where more sales funders don’t do well. And that’s where a whole growth system comes into play is how do you drive more sales and revenue from the existing customers you have. So let’s now switch over to how do you link a growth system with a sales funnel? Okay. The problem with a sales funnel, as you’ve noticed, it comes to a single point. It’s not cyclical in nature, so it’s not a full throttle, a scale. It’s not a full throttle, scalable automobile growth system because it comes to an end.

growth system drive scale and sustainability

A growth system in order to scale and sustain has to have a cyclical nature and process and how it works needs to be systematic, automobile scalable and have a long period of time in which it works. So when creating a full throttle growth system, I’m going to throw this up onto the screen is what we call the growth cycle. If you head over to my book, we talk about this in more detail in a blueprint format on how to take your organization from where it is to exponential growth to make that work. We’ve got a growth cycle with three elements. Number one is the growth problem. Number two is the growth experiment. Number three is the, the extension of the growth extension, which is taking what you’ve done already and take it to the next level. Connecting these two creates a full throttle growth system and a growth system is, as I mentioned, is the cyclical capability that an organization is able to perpetuate its ability to grow and lead to exponential growth.

Complexity explained in the sales funnel

Let me throw this up onto the screen so you can see this if I’ve already put it on the screen, we’re already talking to us, which is brilliant. Those who are tuning in via podcasts, these resources will be made available to you through other forms and means I do my best to describe them. So those who are less visual and more about listening. Here we are at the moment. So why does the system fail? Okay. First and foremost is that people put too much theory, the process and that creates a whole form of complexity. This complexity leads to um, silos or standalone systems. And then when they don’t integrate, you have a fragmented organization and then you just kind of move along with whatever you’re able to bring in and you don’t have a growth system and so doesn’t work very well on the complete opposite is how do you actually make this work?

How does a sales funnel and growth hacking come together

How does a sales funnel and growth hacking come together into a growth system? That starts with integration and automation, which we’ve already talked about. The system is the combination of both your funnel and the growth cycle that bring it all together and developing the growth hacking practices is what brings all these together so you’re able to find ways to hack your growth. As we reached the end. I’d like you to head to the bottom and in the comments do you have a growth system? If not, why, and if so, tell me more about your successes. Use the hashtag growth hacking so we can get the remaining of the growth hacking community involved as we reached the end. As I promise you there’s a a hundred dollars bonus. Go to the bottom, click on the link. It will be very well labeled. There’ll be instructions. This is for a limited time, limited quantity. I will see you in my course and it is called the level one growth Ninja training certified program. We will be taking a closer look at how these systems work to help you grow. I’ll see you in the next video. Thank you.

Having an optimized growth system will 10x the growth of your organization.

Listen to as a podcast

Listen to “10. How does a growth system work with growth hacking” on Spreaker.

 

The growth system

how does a growth system work with growth hacking? Two completely different things. Let me throw this on the screen. Blue screen of death. When you get that crazy system era, we’ve all been there, we hate it, but this is exactly what we don’t want. Okay? A few things I just actually write right to remind you about. Number one is subscribe to my channel. Hit the bell button, like the video. Share it with those who have an interest in this that you believe that can I can help. But most important is I’ve got a hundred dollar bonus for you. Stay to the end. I’m going to show you how you can avail that. So let’s get started. I’m going to just throw this onto the screen really quick here. Um, I want to let you know that about 56% of organizations have a growth system. 4% of them actually have optimized the growth system and half a percent of them have actually harness their growth system for exponential growth.

Connecting the funnel, cycles and growth

Now, what is the difference between all day? So what we’re going to dig into is, you know, what is a growth system? You know, what is a growth cycle? How does that all connect and how does that relate to growth hacking? Because they all connect. They’re actually all in one place. So I’m gonna throw this up on the screen. This looks like a sales funnel because in many essence, it is my perspective on a sales funnel is being able to demonstrate to you the anatomy of a sales funnel. The reason behind that is there are many approaches on how to deal with a sales funnel, and so I’m not here to tell you what is right or wrong. I’m here to show you what the anatomy of a sales funnel would look like. And I have future videos that will go into more detail. We will talk about this because one size does not fit all.

focused on what actually works for you

You need to be authentic and you need to be very focused on what actually works for you. So that is the essence and core of a growth system. But it’s not a whole system. It’s a partial system. We’re going to talk about that now. We’re going to shift over again. Keep this over here on the screen, which is called a growth cycle. The growth cycle is made of three elements, which is the growth problem, growth, experimentation, and then growth extension. And that is basically the process of growth hacking, which brings in that whole cycle. Now if you notice with the the sales funnel, which we were looking at as a partial growth system, if you notice it’s not cyclical in nature, it comes to a point and stops, right? And so you have a growth barrier or bottleneck. And the way to solve that, I’m going to whip this up onto the screen now is when you have a full fledge optimized growth system, you actually have the two.

Experiment your way to success

So when you reached the end of the growth system, which is the funnel there, you need to recycle it because without cyclical capabilities, you will not be able to drive growth to a level that you be able to have exponential growth. So how does, how does all of this connect? Okay, leave, it’s to experimentation. Experimentations. Uh, we do. So we, we don’t know what’s going on, but we understand that data will give us what the future will look like. And so we look at experimentations, um, drives grow growth hacking and that lets us find the best way to grow, uh, scalability, which lets us find out what is the best way to move forward and full scale operations, which is about how to best way to move forward and to grow and for as long as possible. So as we reached the end, I would like to get your comment below how do you plan to build and improve your own growth system? Please put the hashtag growth hacking so we can get the growth hacking community involved. And as I promised, as we reached the end of the video, uh, I have a hundred dollars bonus for you. Go below. I have the link and the instructions on how to avail that. It is a limited time, limited quantity. I will see you in my course and as we reached the end of this video, I will see you in the next video.

Why startups need growth hackers?

Why startups need growth hackers?
Startups have the most to gain from growth hacking in fact the center of every unicorn is growth hacking

Listen to as a podcast

Listen to “09. Why startups need growth hackers” on Spreaker.

 

why startups need growth hacking

If you’re fast enough, and today with all the tools, the technologies and the mindsets and tools that we’ve got in place, there’s actually very little stopping us from moving very fast. All right? Finally is cost, right? So the faster we move with all these tools and technologies, we should be able to do things at much cost effective ways. Today we’re very lucky we got several free tools and low cost tools that integrate that allow us to save a lot of time and money competitiveness. So when you look at speed and cost is obviously it gives you a competitive advantage, but you need to continuously be disruptive because that, and then that’s our next point, which is actually disruptive because as you disrupt and disruption is about changing the rules, I’m going to talk about this in a, in a, in a few more future videos, cause disruption warrants its own topic on its own.

Being able to change the rules makes you more competitive

But the more and better you’re able to change the rules, the more competitive you become. Finally, growth hacking enables you to look at getting more revenue in place and getting more investment in place revenue by optimizing and finding those growth hacks and revenue by becoming more attractive to venture capitalists, angel investors, institutional investors, whoever it would be looking at you because they see that you’re growing at a high speed. So at the center of, of all of this, and you’ll see it in my book, let me bring this up here, which is a ready, set growth hack. We talk very detailed about this and we call it asymmetrical warfare. Asymmetrical warfare essentially is the small guy winning. Okay? Um, in the book we go obviously into way more details with the different strategies and how to go about that. But I’m going to just throw this up into the screen.

Examples of startups who have succeed using growth hacking

I’m going to give you four examples where the small guy wins. First and foremost, Netflix knocking the shit out of blockbuster. Okay? We all know the story. Dropbox beating not just Western digital, but all and major external hydro players. Their market share has got one of the Capote because now they can save it on the cloud. Google was a small guy, hard to believe. They actually went to who were the biggest search engine at the time. They were ready to sell their algorithm for $500,000. They didn’t believe in them. They went ahead and decided to compete and knock out all these guys. A perfect example of asymmetrical warfare where the small guy wins. Finally is Amazon. Amazon used to be not on the map. It was the book business where they started, was dominated by Barnes and noble. They become extremely digital of course today because of Amazon, but these to be one of the largest physical distributors in the United States and had a significant global footprint.

The small guys can win

Small guy comes along, knocks them out, and now they take the pole position, making it one of the most valuable companies in the world. You may think that these examples are unique to few people. That is not true. They all started just like you. Now we’ll shift over to warfare mechanics. We talked about warfare and though I’m talking about warfare mechanics, how to actually go about asymmetrical warfare, so I’m going to whip this up onto the screen. I’m just going to give you a quick look at this. I want to remind you that all the details behind this as a blueprint are in my book, we have six high level warfare mechanics in order to beat someone more powerful than us. The first one is about amplification. The second is about blind spotting. The third is about absence. The fourth is about diversion. The next, sorry.

Growth hacking is very important for startups

The fifth one is about distortion and the last one is about complexity and each one of them have their sub characteristics that enable you to be able to beat somebody more powerful than you. So go to the book. You’ll learn a lot more about that in detail. As we come to the end of the video, I want to hear from you, why is growth hacking important to you? Put your comments below hashtag at growth hacking. I’d like to get the remaining of the growth hacking community involved and since we reached down as I promise you, I have a hundred dollar bonus for you. It is my certified level one growth hacking course. It is a limited time, limited quantity. Click below on the link instructions will be there. I will see you in the course and as we come to the end, I will see you in the next video.

How can we achieve a growth mindset?

How can we achieve a growth mindset?

How to achieve a growth mindset adapting the most optimal habits

Listen to as a podcast

Listen to “08. How can we achieve a growth mindset” on Spreaker.

 

how can we achieve a growth mindset?

Usually in the conversation when it comes to growth hacking, it’s about tools, about technology and then methods, but very little is talked about the mindset or the mentality that is used behind it. Let me break it down into a very simple equation for you. You, your mindset supersedes everything because how you think will help set the culture that you’ve put in place that defines the strategy that then helps you put the systems, processes in place that create the tools and technology for you to deliver the products and services you do. So with the center of it is literally your mindset. So I’m going to throw this up on the screen. I want to show you what a growth hack, well, a growth mindset, but also how a growth hacker specifically thinks. We have four quadrants here. One are the drivers, second is reach, second is tooling, and third is how they make decisions.

Drivers behind the mindset of a growth hacker

So what we’re going to do is we’re going to look at the first part. So we’ll stay on on this image. For those who are listening in, I’ll be describing this with no fear. If you don’t see the image and there’ll be resources how to reach these images in the links below. So the drivers, the first thing is mischief’s, curiosity and status quo at the core of a growth hackers thinking is they’re naturally mischief by nature. They have no trouble ripping shit up and because of that they become extremely curious, right? Why is something like this or why is something not like that? Why hasn’t anyone tried it like this? What about the combination of one, two, three, four things combined as a specific outcome? How would that change the world if we were to take a smaller perspective, a bigger perspective and new perspective, a whole complete fresh look on things being absolutely curious about how these things actually work.

Growth hackers hate status-quo

Finally, when it comes under, drivers is the status quo. The thing about status quo is that growth hackers do not comply with the quo. In fact, their whole job is to actually break the rules that govern everything happening around us. As Albert Einstein families famously said, you cannot solve a problem by thinking about it the same way you got into it. You have to change the way you think about it. If you plan to solve it, and if you stick to the same rules on the status quo around it, you ain’t going to solve that problem and you ain’t going to grow. Let’s switch over to the next quadrant, which is the rich focus, collaboration, value creation. The thing about a growth hacker is they are extremely focused and the reason that they’re extremely focused as they understand the limitations of the resources from time, money towards capabilities, access to people they know, the only way forward is to get so extremely focused and specialized.

The best way forward is always collaboration

It’s the only way forward. The other thing is collaboration, which comes down also to resourcing. So resourcing is a challenge for all of us, for all of us, but those who know how to collaborate very well and we’ve seen many examples of how collaborations can be extremely effective. Putting those highly effective collaborations in place helps you grow. Finally is value creation. Okay, so when they’re focused, they collaborate. Everything focused towards how to create value for the customer. The customer is at the center of this thing and how you develop and drive value towards them is crucial in making the your whatever it is that you plan to grow, grow in the last quarter and not the last quarter but the quarter and at the bottom decision making. So creativity, experimentation, data-driven decisions. The first and foremost is again, you cannot solve a problem unless you’re thinking about it differently. And so approaching it key to it will be creativity.

Experimentation leads to 10x growth

Okay? But creativity without experimentation, meaning you can’t really detect what would really work or not. And there are two types of broad experiments. There’s validation and discovery. Validation would be a cumulative of about 99% of experiments. And experimentation would be about 1%. Experimentation obviously are more complicated, take a bit more time and obviously more resources, hence why people spend more time validating than actually discovering regardless of the two, you’re still experimenting and you’ve come up with data and on the basis of that data you remove ego, ego get one out of the way. And data supersedes you make tangible and very raw, clean cut decision decisions on facts. And reality. And the final, final quadrant is tooling. So under, and we’ve got systemization, optimization, and technology. In order to grow a growth hack or grow anything, you need to be able to scale and automate.

systemization, scaling and automation

And the make that happen, you need to have systems you need to be at to automate. So you need to optimize them and then you need to use technology to make that happen. Now if you noticed, I actually left that quadrant to the very last and for a very specific reason. These types of tools and technologies can blind signed us. Um, they, they, we, they can either be an enhancement, like a superpower or a crutch that we keep using that holds us back and gives us a handicap, right? We don’t want that there. It’s actually the very last thing. So when we recap, we look at the things that drive us there, how we actually reach out, and then we look at how we make decisions. And finally circle back to the last quadrant of how we think, which relates to the tooling part, which is technology.

Building powerful growth hacker habits

So since we’re back, then we’re going to move over to habits. I’m going to, I have these 14 habits that I look at and evaluate when it comes to developing a growth team. This is included in hiring and identifying potential talent to work on my team. So let’s get started. I’m going to throw this up onto the screen. I’m going to keep it up there and go one by one. The first habit is openness. Okay? You need to be open to all kinds of possibilities without any bias or filter, just open. The second part is you need to be flexible because without, okay? So if you’re open but not flexible, then it’s almost pointless to be open, right? But if you’re open to our possibility, then you need to be flexible with how you actually deal with those possibilities. Then you need to remove ego.

Making those growth habits work

Um, the most successful way to develop this habit is to recognize that you’re just a cog in the wheel. We all want to believe that we are really much, much more important, uh, then we may be an I understand. We do play important roles in the things that we do, but when we step back and see that there are much greater, bigger things at play and we’re there to take advantage of them, to capitalize on them and use them in ethical and compassionate ways, of course, to develop growth, we have them. They have in a room moving ego. The fourth habit is risk-taking. So let’s say you’re open, you’re flexible, your mood, ego, but you’re not ready to take risks. And then the, all the, all the habits I just mentioned are again, absolutely nulled out. They’re pointless, right? So you need to be open, flexible, no ego.

Risk taking is a vital part of the growth mindset

And then you need to be able to take risk and take risk is not about genuine, just a leap of faith because you will be taking a leap of faith. That is the truth. But it’s calculated. It’s calculated because you take a very careful look at all the variables that are visible to you. And because you’re open, flexible, and remove ego, you’re able to deal with situations as they come along. Fifth is fresh perspective. It is important to continuously refresh your perspective. We refresh our internet, we refresh our browser, we refresh our refreshments. We’re used to refreshing things that we would do very little to actually refresh our perspective. We need to do a lot of that. A six is generosity. Uh, this is a very unique one because if you’re not generous to the people and the world around you, you won’t be able to attract the resources you need a giver’s gain, as, I can’t remember who’s actually coined that, but I genuinely believe in that and the most successful people that I have ever worked with who have achieved massive growth are genuinely very generous at the core of who they are as a personality.

curiosity is a growth hackers fuel

Seventh is curiosity. We’ve talked about in the mindset you need to be always curious about why was the color red chosen? Why was this cha shape put here? Um, you know, you keep asking things of course, in a very useful pragmatic way that you can decode the things around you because you’re able to look at them from a fresh, open, flexible way and take the risks that you need to, to be able to use that curiosity. In a very productive way. Eighth is team focus. You know that you can’t work alone. Uh, growth. Hackers are always aware that they have limited resources and working within the team is the best way to multiply and accelerate our capability. They listen before they take action. So it again, it’s not just raw data that is on your computer that’s in front of you, but it’s your ability to listen people around you because they’re consistently providing you mental data that provides you the learning in order to take action.

making cohesive work for 10x growth

10 is cohesive approach. So when moving forward, we move collectively, not individually, and we keep that moment momentum moving forward. 11 is, um, consensus or as we move forward together, we need to keep that consensus. A diplomacy does play an important role here, but I need to be very Frank with you that the best of the people who succeed in growth, they are, they have little diplomacy, but they do their best to make it happen. And that is the best advice I can give you. Sometimes we spend so much time in diplomacy, we lose time, energy, and effort to get to the results, so we need to be effective about that. And the next one is diplomacy, which has obviously I’ve just talked about and how it connects to consensus. So it really important not to waste time. 13 is action driven. Everything that you do is removing a well understanding theory and models and all that fun stuff, but moving towards action, consistently moving it towards action.

achieving collective wins

You learn something new. What the hell can I do with this to get utility out of it is what this is all about and finally is collective wins. Now I leave this one to the end for a really important reason. We all work together to win, but it’s not about I winning and you being on my team. It is a collective win. Even the smallest player in the chain who contributed to the massive growth and success should also be in the wind. They should not be on the sites. Now, how to develop this mindset. Now I got to tell you that I will be developing new tools and videos that relate to this. So do keep abreast of updates by hitting the subscription following me on social media. And if you take the bonus, which I’m going to talk to you about at the end, you’ll be on my mailing list, which is awesome.

surround yourself with absolutely positive people

But what I can leave you with cause I don’t want to leave you hanging, is you need to surround yourself with absolutely positive people, people who work in think a lot like you. I’m not saying discard people who bring new perspective because it is important to surround yourself with those types of people that you need to be very balanced. Some of the most, uh, some people who the conventional world would consider nuts and all over the place.
