In order to turn sprints into breakthrough insights, you shouldn't be limiting yourself to any single analytics system, but instead, should understand how to correctly set up and use these systems to gain and maintain a tactical advantage.

The bigger challenge

At the heart of every growth challenge, there is an inherent resource allocation challenge. Wasted budget on campaigns and efforts that aren't moving the needle. It’s important to understand that it is unrealistic to expect consistent progress with your growth model on blind investments. Instead, you need targeted ones–inline with your key drivers of traction.

What is the growth model?

A growth model describes 5 things: acquiring…

Sounds reasonable right?

Yet I still run into business owners who when presented with a website and channel investment opportunity, within the broader scope of building a lean funnel, improving their UVP, and boosting conversion. I get responses like, “…we invested in a new site last summer… so we don’t need a new site.” …

Before you ask, yes I could have taken way less stuff. This mountain range does have small towns dotted about after all. However, I didn’t want to pass up the opportunity to train for bigger crossings…

I’d like you to think about what humans have accomplished for a second.

We’ve ridden across Earth’s great land masses, built ships to sail across the seas, invented machines that can take us to the depths of the oceans, into space, and now–thanks in part to modern paragliding gear–we’re able to hike and fly across entire mountain ranges, powered only by the elements.
