This growth hub hopes to be to tech entrepreneurs what Codeacademy is to coders and Khan Academy is to academics. Based in Hong Kong, the startup Now F@cking Grow helps with mastering growth skills such as analytics, inbound marketing, outbound channels and software as a service (SaaS).
The platform includes industry experts teaching on it, is open only to elite tech entrepreneurs and specialized growth experts, contains an active community and focuses on teaching strategic insights rather than courses. The growth hub is founded upon six pillars of growth: sales funnels, inbound, outbound, AARRR (a startup metric created by Dave McClure) and back-end funnels, copywriting and strategy.
Currently in beta mode, the 39Labs company is encouraging people to sign up for early access.
