Traction: How Any Startup Can Achieve Explosive Customer Growth Audiobook (Free)

Summary:

Most startups don’t fail because they can not build a product.

Most startups fail because they can’t get traction.

Startup advice tends to be a whole lot of platitudes repackaged with fresh buzzwords, but Traction is something else entirely.

As Gabriel Weinberg and Justin Mares learned using their very own experiences, creating a successful business is hard. For every startup that expands to the stage where it can go public or be profitably acquired, hundreds of others sputter and die.

Smart about Traction: How Any Startup CAN PERFORM Explosive Customer Development entrepreneurs understand that the key to achievement isn’t the originality of the supplying, the brilliance of your team, or how much cash you increase. It’s how consistently you can grow and acquire new customers (or, for a free program, users). That’s known as traction, and it makes the rest easier-fund-raising, hiring, press, partnerships, acquisitions. Chat is cheap, but traction can be hard evidence you are on the right path.

Traction will teach you the nineteen stations you can use to create a consumer base, and how to pick the ideal ones for your company. It pulls on inter-views with more than forty successful founders, including Jimmy Wales (Wikipedia), Alexis Ohanian (reddit), Paul British (Kayak), and Dharmesh Shah (HubSpot). You’ll learn, for example, how to:

·Find and make use of offline ads and other stations your competition probably aren’t using

·Get targeted media coverage that will help you reach more customers

·Boost the potency of your e-mail marketing promotions by automating staggered pieces of prompts and updates

·Improve your search engine rankings and marketing through online tools and study

Weinberg and Mares understand that there’s no one-size-fits-all solution; every startup encounters unique challenges and can benefit from a blend of these nineteen grip channels. They provide a three-step framework (known as Bullseye) to determine which ones will work greatest for your business. But no matter how you apply them, the lessons and good examples in Traction can help you develop and maintain the growth your business desperately needs.
