Study Notes
- To determine if your retention is good, you need to check if it is stable and parallel to the x-axis (the y-axis represents the retention metric).
- You should also make sure that the long-term retention is in line with "average or media" retention.
- A growth team is responsible for driving desired behavior/actions in product users.
- The growth team is made up of 1 growth-focused PM, 2-3 growth engineers, and 1-2 growth data scientists.
- The first growth team hire is a product manager.
- The growth team helps accelerate the growth trajectory of the company.
- Growth engineers need to have a clear goal and be able to communicate it to the company as a whole in order to help everyone work together to achieve it.
- Once the goal has been set, the team needs to identify channels through which they can achieve it.
- Channels can be based on user behavior, and the team should ask questions such as "What behaviors do existing users engage in?" and "What channels do new users use most?"
- Once the channels have been identified, the team needs to experiment with different methods to see which ones work best.
- The growth team should have a solid experiment dashboard in place to track results
- Peer review & individual experimentation are important to ensure quality
- It is important to keep user researchers in place to understand what is happening behind the numbers
