In an increasingly erratic business landscape, where new competition can emerge overnight, customers' loyalties can shift unexpectedly, and markets are constantly being disrupted, finding growth solutions fast is crucial for survival. Hacking Growth provides a compelling answer to this urgent need for speed, offering companies a methodology for finding and optimizing new strategies to increase their market share and quickly. -- Eric Ries, bestselling author of THE LEAN STARTUP
It used to be that designers and engineers were responsible for developing new products, data teams were responsible for number-crunching reports, and marketers were responsible for acquiring and monetizing as many customers as possible. But today's companies can't afford to be slowed down by organizational silos. Here, growth hacking pioneers Ellis and Brown show how to break down those traditional barriers and marry powerful data analysis, technical know-how, and marketing savvy to quickly devise and test ways to fuel breakout growth. * Nir Eyal, bestselling author of HOOKED *
Ellis and Brown have accomplished what we've been talking about for twelve years, which is to compile and organize an accurate view into the inner workings of an emerging discipline. Their wisdom plus the anecdotes and stories have rarely been discussed outside a small circle of people, and they give real insight into how digital-growth hacking is done at the highest levels. As all companies become digital, this is a must-read for anyone in business. * James Currier, managing partner, NFX Guild *
There is nothing more important for any business than attracting users and customers to your products. The tools to do this in today's online-driven world are very different from the past.

You will learn to do deep data analysis, and how to think about developing features into your products that drive growth directly. * Josh Elman, partner, Greylock Partners *
Marketers realize that marketing as we've known it will be replaced by growth hacking. So what is it, how do you do it, and why do you need to? Morgan Brown and Sean Ellis help you ask and answer those questions in this brilliant book, made for those new to the art and science on how to hack growth. * Geoffrey Colon, Communications Designer at Microsoft and Author of Disruptive Marketing *
