DNA of a Growth Hacker
• Data-driven
• Results focused
• Product + Media
• Applied user data to enhance growth
• Test, learn, optimize
“Our company is massive - we already
have product-focused people and my
job is just user acquisition.”
“Our company is massive - we already
have product-focused people and my
job is just user acquisition.”
The most powerful tool in your arsenal is
your product itself.
“Growth hacking is a recognition that when you focus on
understanding your users and how they discover and
adopt your products you can build features that help you
acquire and retain more users, rather than just spending
marketing dollars” - Josh Elman, Greylock Partners

How Hotmail “Pwned”

with Owned Media

Hotmail wasn’t growing fast enough. Tim Draper, VC at DFJ,
suggested attaching a message at the end of every email asking
for the recipient to sign up for a free email account with Hotmail.
How Hotmail “Pwned”

with Owned Media

Get your free email with Hotmail.
Lead to Hotmail, eventually, growing by 150k users a day. And
later copied by Blackberry and Apple.

Vu worked with 500px to offer up

based on the user’s location, time of
day and weather.

They paid attribution to 500px and
drive user’s to their app. 500px used

Paypal Piggybacking eBay

PayPal started off with a $20 signup bonus
to all who signed up and $20 to anyone
who referred someone else (eventually
went to $10 and then $50)
!
Paypal Piggyback on eBay’s rapid growth
in the late 90’s by having sellers advertise
PayPal as their preferred method of
payment. Major benefit to sellers was the
referral bonus which greatly added to
their margins. Buyers and sellers
preference to PayPal greatly increased it’s
growth (PayPal Wars)
!
As eBay opened their own payment
platform, PayPal countered with
immediate emails once the auction
closed allowing the buyer to complete
the transaction through the email.
