Once again Ryan's at the forefront of change. In Growth Hacker Marketing, he shows how the marketing game has changed forever and how marketers must learn a new mindset or risk becoming obsolete.

2.) Establish Product Market Fit

It's time to stop guessing what people want. You can't sit in your office with your colleagues discussing what would be cool or what you think potential customers would want.

Via Growth Hacker Marketing: "Product market fit is a feeling backed with data and information."

Have you ever tried to market or sell something that people didn't want and that you didn't believe in? How'd that work out for you?

3.) Make Mistakes Quickly

Via Growth Hacker Marketing: "The thing about marketers -- and, well, everyone -- is that we're wrong all the time.
