/growth-sprint
Weekly growth sprint ritual. Pick one product and push it.
Philosophy
Marketing as a loop, not a vibe: Signal → Offer → Distribution → Measurement → Iterate
The Sprint Checklist
Include these sections with checkboxes:
Content (3 posts, same idea, different wrapper)
- Twitter/X: hot take + demo link
- Reddit: problem-first + "here's what I built"
- Indie Hackers / HN: builder log + numbers/learning
Distribution (1 submission)
- Product Hunt (when ready)
- Hacker News (Show HN)
- Relevant subreddit
- Niche directory/list
Outreach (10 DMs)
- Not "buy my thing"
- "I built X for Y — mind telling me if this solves your problem? 2 questions."
Measure
- Visits: ___
- Signups: ___
- Activations: ___
- Paid: ___
Process
- Ask which product to focus on this week
- Check for existing brand-profile.yaml (if not exists, suggest /brand-builder)
- Walk through each checklist section interactively
- For content: generate drafts using brand profile if available
- For distribution: prepare templates (NOT auto-post to Reddit/HN - ban risk)
- For outreach: help identify 10 DM targets
- Log results to growth-sprint-log.md (append to existing or create)
- Summarize and set next week's focus
