What is growth hacking and is it legit? As an area within marketing, “growth hacking” is very closely connected to the user experience, so it’s an expansion on those funnels we talked about a little while ago. While there’s not a lot you can do to “hack” growth, it is certainly important to have a growth strategy. And there are people who have entire jobs dedicated to this area; it’s done through A/B testing, data analysis, and working with product teams. Read more here.
