/growth-sprint
Weekly growth sprint ritual. Pick one product and push it.
Philosophy
Marketing as a loop, not a vibe: Signal → Offer → Distribution → Measurement → Iterate
The Sprint Checklist
Include these sections with checkboxes:
Content (3 posts, same idea, different wrapper)
-
Twitter/X: hot take + demo link
-
Reddit: problem-first + "here's what I built"

Distribution (1 submission)
-
Product Hunt (when ready)
-
Hacker News (Show HN)
-
Relevant subreddit
-
Niche directory/list
Outreach (10 DMs)
-
Not "buy my thing"

"I built X for Y — mind telling me if this solves your problem? 2 questions."
