When Alexa released in 2014 people really went crazy for them, her?, enough for it to sell out ahead of the holidays.By 2019, just 5 years later after launch- Amazon had already sold 100 million Alexas (which is close to how fast the iPhone sold when it was released) , and had managed to make Google and Apple sprint to play catch up.
Another revolution, right?
More than Alexa, we were crazy for IoT in the 2010s.And so we bought smart locks, smart lamps, smart bulbs, smart strips, smart Wifi? Smart toilets-These were never too cheap, by the way. It seems that the tech behind those devices has been around for years, but they still haven’t gotten cheaper- and definitely not a standard. A topic for another day.The point is Alexa was going to help us make them all work together.
Until it didn’t.

Are you ready to pitch to investors? We can help ► https://yt.slidebean.com/0kg--Famous growth hacking tactics from successful startups
In 2008 - this group of founders had come up with this idea of an Air Bed and Breakfast. It’s like a Bed and Breakfast, but with air mattresses.They launched the website, but it was still too early to drive revenue, and they were broke.
They lived in San Francisco, of all places, one of the most expensive cities to live in (flying there next week for our next Startup Planet episode).
Anyway, they are short on cash, so they come up with this hack. Since it’s an election year, they come up with this Obama and John MCain-themed cereal. $40 for a box.
They made $30,000 from it. Soon after they get accepted to YCombinator, raise $600K using this pitch deck- no, sorry, that’s the prettier version we made. This pitch deck.
And you know the rest.
As much as we could hate on the Airbnb cleaning and service fees, the truth is the founders are an incredible example of HUSTLE. Hacking and solving problems to get your company afloat- and the cereals aren’t even my favorite example.
There are stories like these from virtually every startup out there, and in this video, I’ve collected some of my favorite growth hacks to get your brain juice pumping.

Ticketmaster is the perfect example of a company allowed to grow unchecked. A company that circumvented laws until it reached a scale that has left everyone powerless to stop it.
There’s nothing artists or producers, or venues can do anymore. Let alone fans. It’s a story that spans almost half a century, from the very origins of live music.

#startups #Slidebean #SpaceRace
When you look at a mission to space these days, it’s not immediately obvious whose launchpad we’re looking at, or honestly… who is paying for the party?
In 2021 Space Tourism became mainstream again. It’s not the first time it happens. But behind all of that, there are decades of private companies slowly but surely owning space exploration- and it does seem that indeed, private companies, private innovation is spearheading the way to space.

A Canadian man entered the Fortis hospital in India with intense vomiting and diarrhea. Hours later, he was dead. The next day, his body was on its way back to Canada.
Local authorities saw nothing suspicious. Instead, they labeled the death as an acute case of gastroenteritis and intestinal perforation. But, the moment this man died, he took hundreds of millions of dollars with him.
His death sparked authorities in the US and Canada to scramble to find those millions. What they discovered blew everyone away.
Now, the world obsesses over his death. Hundreds of digital detectives want to answer thousands of questions. But, one stands out above the rest. What if he isn't dead?
Let's talk about Quadriga in this episode of Company Forensics.

Globally, we close to 35,000 rounds of funding, 20,000 of which were Angel or Seed rounds.
While the number of angel rounds decreased with the pandemic, the number of VC rounds grew - but more importantly, the size of the rounds skyrocketed.
More than $600B were raised in 2021, twice as much as companies raised in 2020.But, this is a select club. In the US alone, over 5 million new business registrations happened in 2021, but less than 4,500 early-stage companies raised any venture capital. That is a mere 0.08%
SO MANY companies are not venturing backable (one of the reasons we decided to pivot our product into something that any startup, not just venture-backable companies would find useful).
So again, with that context here are some stats that show the reality of SaaS companies- courtesy of our friends at ChartMogul.

One of the most useful books I have read in my history is Traction, by Gabriel Weinberg (the CEO of DuckDuckGO). Get his book here: https://amzn.to/3tPiMOs
The thesis is that there are only 19 marketing channels. Done. Period.
And it's useful to know them all because the art and science of growing a company are essentially testing as many campaigns in as many channels as fast as possible (and, of course, measuring the results).
