![]() Website | Mobile User Acquisition Show | LinkedIn | Twitter | YouTube ![]() Sean’s Books: Growth Engines | Hacking Growth We’ll talk about so many of these wins, and about the culture of growth & experimentation that he’s both championed & helped drive the adoption of. In so many ways, Sean pioneered ideas about growth that were way ahead of their time – and he did this consistently over time. Sean has also co-authored the books Growth Engines and Hacking Growth, which are considered definitive resources on growth. Today he runs, a community focused around growth that organically resulted in a growth-focused SaaS product called NorthStar. Sean also founded Qualaroo, and advised many fast growing companies including Eventbrite & Lookout – and helped them grow faster. I remember this not only generating such incredible buzz at the time but also resulting in some breakout growth for Dropbox, laying the foundations for the unicorn that it’s become today. This was nothing short of revolutionary at the time. If you remember back in 2008, if you invited a friend to Dropbox, both you & your friend would get storage space for free from Dropbox. ![]() Where do I begin talking about him? Sean has held leadership roles with gaming platform Uproar and the remote desktop tool LogMeIn – and pioneered the cross functional approach to growing businesses that has since become known as ‘growth’, ‘growth hacking’ or ‘growth marketing’.Īll of that was before he worked on some of his biggest wins – most famously, he helped set up Dropbox’s referral program. Sean is widely regarded as the Godfather of Growth, and is credited with coining the phrase ‘growth hacking’.
