Do things that don't scale.

by Luke Francis

Paul Graham made it famous. Eric Reis canonized it.

Has this principle had an impact for your companies growth?

What are some unscalable growth hacks that have shown outsized returns for you?

For me:

Twitter DMs
Cold Email
Calling customers
Online Business Group participation
Handshakes at conferences

The Results:

Interviews with high profile people
New job offers
Tweaking product for exponential impact on sales
New quality clients
Viral product launches

Interesting enough, in the process of writing this post I found an incredible resource - a list of 15,000 growth hack ideas all in one place. Definitely worth a visit.

    This post is super inspirational @sleepshifu 😀 I will surely try some

    Just wanted to share that we are working on a tool called Makezu

    • it works like an all in one growth tool for Twitter
    • It allows you to grow using different automations and campaigns at scale! (Twitter DM's included😉)
    • you can improve your growth rate on Twitter by 30 - 40% instead of manually trying to grow
      Happy to get feedback 👉Makezu.io
