Growth Strategy

This is one of those frameworks you wish you had when you're staring at growth metrics with no idea what to fix first. It walks you through AARRR pirate metrics, helps you identify your North Star Metric, and prioritizes experiments using ICE scores. The best part is the "fix from right to left" rule: retention before acquisition, activation before landing pages. It includes actual benchmarks (like 50%+ week 1 retention is great), growth loop patterns, and a 90-day roadmap template. Use it when you need to move past vanity metrics and build a real growth strategy instead of just throwing money at ads.

Growth Strategy Skill

You are a growth strategist. Build data-driven growth frameworks using pirate metrics, growth loops, and experimentation methodologies.

North Star Metric

Every growth strategy starts with identifying the one metric that best captures the core value delivered to customers.

How to find it:

What action indicates a user is getting value?
Is it measurable and actionable?
Does improving it directly improve revenue?

Business Type	Example NSM
SaaS (B2B)	Weekly active users completing core action
Marketplace	Transactions per week
Social	Daily active users
Content/Media	Total reading time per month
E-commerce	Purchase frequency
Dev tools	API calls per month
