Growth Hacking for Humans
summary
Career narrative lists nine stages from discovery to helping others and names the companies and products built: EchoLibra (a dev shop), a URL shortener (first in Ireland with analytics), Cloudsplit (€100k funded but never shipped), and Orchestra (launched in public beta and acquired by engine yard in seven months). Practical tactics include two-week sprints paid up front, selling experience not hours, using meetups to recruit and validate ideas (Pub Standards hits ~180 people), and the mantra ship early, demo often to get feedback fast.
