Virgins. All y’all used to be FICO credit score virgins. Now, you’re pros! Let us…<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Break your Growth Hacking hymen and no longer be VIRGINS.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
I see you…<\/div>\n
– bookmarking webpages of growth hacking blog posts of mine<\/div>\n
– liking a tweet tagged  #ch6<\/a> but not reading the article \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/div>\n
– seeing pages and pages of handwritten notes from X conference on Traction\/ Community Management\/ <\/div>\n
– tweaking your resume to more “biz dev-y”<\/div>\n
– THINKING about scratching that itch to actually DO growth hacking. <\/div>\n
– reaching out and being reached out to by legendary growth hackers (Sean Ellis, Dan Martell, Dharmesh Shah, Drew Houston)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
You see, many don’t realize it’s not educational pedigree nor network nor family connections… It’s the practice of growth hacking. And it’s the documentation of previous growth hacks<\/div>\n
