Adapted from "Growth Hacker Marketing: A Primer on the Future of PR, Marketing, and Advertising" by Ryan Holiday. http://www.amazon.com/Growth-Hacker-Marketing-Primer-Advertising/dp/1591847389/ryanholnet-20 "Everything you thought you knew about marketing is obsolete. We can see the incontrovertible evidence right in front of us. A new generation of multibillion dollar brands—Facebook, Twitter, AirBnb, Evernote, and countless others—have been built without spending a dime on traditional marketing techniques. No press releases, no PR firm, no Madison Avenue, no billboards in Times Square. It wasn’t luck that took them from tiny start-ups to massive success. They have a new strategy. It’s called Growth Hacking. And it works. A Growth Hacker is someone who rejects what “marketing” is supposed to be and replaces it only with tools that are testable, trackable, and scalable. Growth Hackers rely on inexpensive tactics like e-mail, pay-per-click ads, blogs, and platform APIs. They chase real results in a field that was dominated by gut instincts for nearly a century. They reject the traditional marketing worship of all things big: big budgets, big campaigns, big opening weekends. Instead, they embrace the opposite: taking a start-up from nothing to something, launching a Kickstarter project, building something that truly spreads. Growth Hacker Marketing offers both a new mindset and a new set of rules. Bestselling author Ryan Holiday, the former director of marketing for American Apparel, will convince you of the urgency of this awakening. He shows why the game has changed forever and what to do about it—whether you are an aspiring marketer, an entrepreneur, or a Fortune 500 senior executive."

Start Up Mauritius provides lean management training to help participants successfully complete an entrepreneurial internship. The training covers lean startup techniques like developing value and growth hypotheses to test assumptions about business ideas. A key technique taught is creating a minimum viable product (MVP) - a basic version of the product with minimum features - to test assumptions without large investments. Participants will learn to test MVPs, analyze results, and either improve the product or "pivot" the business strategy based on what they learn to increase chances of success. The goal is for participants to gain experience from an initial failure in order to succeed in future business endeavors.

Genna Elvin gives a presentation on starting a startup using the Lean methodology. She discusses how her company Tadaweb initially pursued many different markets and product ideas without finding product-market fit. Through iterative testing and pivoting, they discovered their technology was best suited for B2B and government users. She encourages entrepreneurs to test marketing ideas before building, develop an MVP to validate metrics with early adopters, measure the right metrics, and be willing to pivot quickly if those metrics don't look promising. The Lean methodology focuses on short development cycles, customer validation, and data-driven decision making to reduce risks and failures.
The document discusses the most fatal mistake startups can make, which is scaling prematurely before achieving product-market fit. It defines product-market fit as having customers that love the product and a plausible monetization strategy. Startups are warned to focus on building a great product and validating their business plan, rather than growing headcount or marketing, until these metrics are met. Common reasons for premature scaling are a lack of clear product metrics and pressure from investors, which founders can avoid by appointing metric owners and regularly communicating progress.

This includes organizing mistakes according to an easy/hard vs. high/low payoff matrix to identify areas for initial focus.
