Today I think we have a little something for everybody.
I’ve brought my friend Matt Ellsworth on the show to talk about a slieu of topics including growth hacking and how he went from being laser focused on startups to pursuing a career in standup comedy.
I wanted to bring Matt on the show because the tactics he used as VP of growth at his last company Storefront are brilliant and I think this episode will really open people’s eyes to some of the tools you can use to develop a scalable lead generation process.
Matt also has some serious cajones.
A lot of us have dreams of doing something that might seem unrealistic given our current path.
I think its safe to say not a lot of people in Silicon Valley expected Matt to pursuing stand up after successfully establishing himself as a top growth hacker. But Matt had the gumption and courage to do it anyway which I give him mad respect for.
We’ll talk about the way he thought about this decision over the next hour so that anyone who hasn’t starting pursuing what may seem like an unrealistic dream can learn how to start making forward progress today.
