What’s a growth hack that is so good you don’t tell anyone about it?

[anng]

I dare you to share your secret. I know you have one. It’s time to fess up and help out our community. I know I’ve had some SEO ones in the past that are no longer viable. What do you got?

@anng Tracking metrics specific to the business that facilitate growth in revenue.

Instead of blindly thinking whatever analytics you get is enough.

Not really a straight forward answer to your question but it seems to be underrated in most businesses that I’ve come across.

@anng Doing TikTok Lives is my growth hack. Gained lots of followers and and I sold many products

 

[hermrolly]

@urangel4ever2051 but you don’t have to get a certain number of followers to unlock lives?

 

[urangel4ever2051]

@hermrolly Post organic content, interesting for your target audience and you will get the followers

@anng Community growth is very powerful. We do this for our own business and over 35% of our total traffic comes from forums & social communities. Set a dedicated community manager to build value and engage with your ideal consumers and it will naturally drive traffic for you.

Simply, there are a lot of sources of traffic that you can’t directly get attribution but they are the most powerful.

@jimz Doesn't it depend on the nature of your business or product?
What product you are referring to here?

@anng If you are doing cold outreach, then I am sure you will need to clean your leads data and filter out bad ones. You can try email validation tools but they are not accurate. So what you can do is set up a decoy email infrastructure and blast a generic message to that list.

Then all the delivered emails are your validated leads, all the opens are possible active buyers and the replies can be your active buyers.

This is something we tried, it was a bit costly but worth it.

@anng Why don't you start by sharing yours

@anng Someone once told me If you want to buy a thing without checking the money you got to work hard without watching the clock.

@anng I'm not sure how good this actually was, but I'll go ahead and share it anyway.

So, I co-founded a site called Motion Array. It offers anything that video editors need for making videos. Stock video, music, graphics, etc...

Back in the early days when money was scarce, we posted a job on Upwork looking for a video editor to help us edit videos.

So where's the hack you ask? Well, there wasn't an actual job. We just wanted to get our site in front of as many video editors as possible. We got a lot of traffic from this, but I'm not sure if we ever converted any of them.

@anng Collaborations 100%

Freebie swaps
Bundles

I’ve added over a 1000 subscribers to my list in less than 90 days no joke.

I didn’t have to create content or be on social media.

Just schedule and send emails that’s it

 

[totemism]

@kenhensley Can you please explain how Collaborations and the Freebie swaps work?
