WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING:


"Anirudh's coursework has proved to be one of the most defining moments that has really geared Cuestionarix's growth in the last 3 months. We managed to increase user acquisition by 60% only last month, and visits in 200%, by being disciplined with the recommendations in the course. In general, we started by mapping out our funnel, setting up growth goals, and learning from our customers through Buyer Personas, we went "down and dirty" with out user data and learned how to manage it to provide meaningful answers to our growth questions. We experimented with content marketing messaging, social validation, creating drip campaigns, adding transactional emailing/SMS, measuring channel effectiveness, A/B testing, generating PM Fit surveys, analyzing user flow, and optimizing UX. Ani's course gives you the knowledge and the tools to implement a solid growth hacking system, for you to lead it. I totally recommend you taking the course."
