Ok, this is a reference book. Small snippets of content. But I can't remember a book that I have bookmarked so many pages.

Valuable book, short and to the point!

[Jorge Reyes · Rating 3 out of 5]

En general, ofrece lo que promete, más bien parece, un folleto de hacks dentro de un hack, una estrategia utilitaria para que el autor consiga más tráfico. En realidad los hacks que ofrece son de utilidad pragmática, tiene poco que ver con la estrategia, más bien es táctica para startups jóvenes.
En general el movimiento Startupero me parece burdo y poco profesional en general, con poca esencia y motivos poco trascendentes, pero con gran innovación y necesario para el estímulo de las instituciones actuales.
Creo que es una herramienta acertada para aquellos iniciados en el mundo de las startups, la mercadotecnia digital, el inbound y la generación de tráfico.
El lector no debe de esperar más de una lista de consejos y tips, además de muchas links y promociones del autor a su propio sistema de generación de clientes. Sin embargo es lo que promete, no hay engaño.

Very actionable

Loved the quick read format and the link to actual results . I loved reading about how others implemented the ideas and found success. This was a great investment of an hour

I was very disappointed by this book. It is terribly written (seems to be copied and pasted from different sources with minimal edits).

In my opinion, most of the hacks aren't Growth Hacking hacks but already well known Digital Marketing or PR hacks.

Hacks vary in quality

Hacks were hit or miss, some of the early ones putting blind links in groups you just joined are not recommended. Other hacks are pretty good and i look forward to trying them, worth the $3 i paid.

Growth ideas on nutshell

Interesting set of ideas grouped into different growth segments (AARRR = Acquisition Activation Retention Revenue Referral). Some of them are outdated or links are dead, but it’s still valuable to build on!

Boas ideias, mas falta mais desenvolvimento e sobrou jabá.

Read all my reviews at: https://brainfartsandbooks.wordpress.com

This book was full of fantastic, usable content. No frills, no extra joking around, this author was straight and to the point with ideas that work. I am looking forward to using the strategies presented in this book for my businesses.

Can't believe there could be a book this bad

This was the ramblings of some random guy with no purpose or direction whatsoever. If kindle had any kind of preview this would be removed.

[Piotr Stapp · Rating 2 out of 5]

It is just a bunch of links. In my case, I cannot use 99 of 101 ideas because they just don't apply to my case. The rest 2 are more or less ok.

The biggest trick was to make promotion on amazon from 100$ to 0$, so I just see a promotion.

[Cuong Pham · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good típ for startup, verry short and pơerful@.

[Emy · Rating 4 out of 5]

Après avoir collecter toutes les moyen stratégiques auprès des blogs, de vidéos ou encore d'articles ; l'auteur partage toutes ces connaissances dans un langage familier qui permet de comprendre assez aisément son vocabulaire. Court et précis, il traite des différents réseaux en étapes en y joignant des liens. Ce livre est un véritable carnet qu'on pourrait emporter n'importe où.

[Rick Yvanovich · Rating 3 out of 5]

Useful read as there are after all 101 here and likely to be several that you'll find useful. Not something you need to read cover to cove run a sitting, more like something to skim through when you have time.

[Adriano De almeida · Rating 5 out of 5]

Not really a book, but a collection of actionable Growth Hacking. However, keep in mind that you should read every tip inside this book with caution, and always doing the right contextualization for your kind of business, since clearly some tips are very specific for a niche.

[Pilar Cardenas · Rating 5 out of 5]

great tricks - start opening you eyes :)

[HJ · Rating 5 out of 5]

Great summary of hacks that is easley tranferable into action points

[Quan Truong · Rating 4 out of 5]

Good ideas but it's too far from a "book"

It should be a blog post only. Some ideas are worth implementing anw. Too short for a book, but it's ok though.

[Nasos Psarrakos · Rating 5 out of 5]

UBER must-read for any online business

[Monica Villa · Rating 3 out of 5]

This is terribly written (seems to be copied and pasted from different sources with minimal edits) but I was able to find some helpful tips.

[Mikhail Kul · Rating 2 out of 5]

Есть полезные советы. Но, если честно, я ожидал большего. Это и книгой то не назовёшь. Скорее черновиком.

А пиариться и предлагать подписку на каждой странице - это просто дилетанство.
