The original growth hacker reveals his secrets | Sean Ellis (author of “Hacking Growth”)

Sean Ellis, author of Hacking Growth and creator of the Sean Ellis test and ICE prioritization framework, explains the origin and proper use of his product-market-fit survey, emphasizing that the 40% threshold is less important than digging into why 'very disappointed' users value the product. He outlines his growth methodology of prioritizing activation and onboarding before acquisition, drawing on case studies from Lookout, LogMeIn, Dropbox, and Eventbrite to show how understanding must-have value drives sustainable growth.
