We grew @_Glasp's daily ChatGPT traffic from 500 → 19,000 in 4 months. ~37x.
Just published the full playbook as a guest post on @SeanEllis's Substack.
Most AEO tools query LLMs from the outside. We read our own server logs instead.

🎙 📆 [#podcast] @SeanEllis — the originator of growth hacking and former growth leader at Dropbox, Eventbrite, and LogMeIn — kicks off Season 7 of our podcast.
15+ years later, is growth hacking still relevant?
Yes — but it’s evolved: from distribution-first tactics to a rooted in structured learning, staged rollouts, and sharp strategic focus.
We cover:
🔹 Growth inside complex orgs
🔹 Staged feature exposure
🔹 Finding team-level north stars

got hooked on hacking growth from @SeanEllis over the past few days.
wanted to go deeper, so i checked out his substack and one post instantly brought me back to another gem, paul graham’s “things that don’t scale.”
spent the whole morning on that.

I just realized today that NASDAQ trades on the NASDAQ. So NASDAQ can be up and the NASDAQ can be down at the same time.

How do @HubSpot, @ZohoCRM and @ActiveCampaign stack up in AI search? 📬
We put them through the new AI Visibility Index from Subscribed.fyi and the gaps between them were surprising.

🚀 Outcomes > Output 🚀
It’s time we stop measuring success by how much we do & start focusing on the results we achieve.
In my latest article, I share:
✅ Why focusing on outcomes drives real growth.
✅ How tools like the North Star Metric & ICE scoring uncover what truly impacts customer value.
✅ A story from LogMeIn’s early days—where a 5% to 50% sign-up-to-usage breakthrough unlocked growth.
Let’s prioritize what matters most: customer impact.

It feels like I’m the last person who is still using @evernote
Anyone know if there is a way to move my notes to a different service?
It keeps getting worse and they keep cranking the price up. In two years, it’s gone from $45 to $64 to $114.
Finally motivating me to cancel!
