As a side note I love the logo. The fox as an envelope is perfect - especially for this concept!

Great idea, as is this growth hacker marketplace. Question, though: in your showcase/marketplace, will you be able to show how much of an impact said growth hacker or tactic has had in the past?
[+] pclark|13 years ago|reply
yes. absolutely. i want to turn growth into something that is reproducible, and early tests show that you can reproduce what works for one business, for another, assuming you have the data to create boundaries. (a high level learning for example is that we've learnt sending emails multiples of 7 days after a user signs up, provides superior conversions than multiples of 6 or 8.)

wouldn't it be ridiculously awesome if you wanted to hire a copywriter, and you saw their before and after stats on their work? talk is talk, but data is data.

advertising/adwords is something where results increase as you spend more money, and i want to do the same with application growth. or something.

great Saas idea. I was toying around with this idea like 9 months ago w/a friend. obviously we never did anything with it, glad you guys did.

There are a lot of people in this space, and some have now fallen by the wayside.

You have:

- Customer.io

- Intercom.io

- Mixpanel

- userfox

- Pipewise (deadpool)

"This is a limited time offer, we're not Color or anything. But hopefully it'll whip Hacker News into a frenzy."

I see what you did there.

making it easy for businesses to tell a story of why your product is valuable to a user that has explicitly signed up

I think the whole point is making your customers not feel spammed.

How long is this deal going on for? I still gotta get my act together.
