About this listen
Great startups don't waste time on small stuff. If you study the early days of any great startup, you’ll see that 90% of their growth came from 10% of the stuff they tried. But most needed years of experimentation to find their growth levers. This book aims to shortcut that process.
Generic tactics like paid ads, SEO and referral programs will only get you so far. Growth levers are things like the professional photographs that made tens of thousands of customers trust AirBnb when they otherwise wouldn’t—a crucial move that unlocked explosive growth. They are unique to each startup; they’re seldom obvious. They come from specific unexpected customer insights, and cut across organizational functions.
In this book you’ll get a process to find your big growth levers:
- Map your growth model to find points of leverage where you can focus for the greatest impact
- Uncover your customers' unconscious biases and triggers
- Find your prospects at their moment of highest need
- Discover the exact words to explain your value clearly to customers
- Run experiments and use data to find the most impactful work
- Run growth sprints to push the pace and quality of learning and execution
- Shift the team from perfectionism to a scrappy bold mindset
Matt Lerner and his team have helped over 200 startups find their big growth levers as the founder of SYSTM. Previously, he was on the early growth team at PayPal, a partner at a Silicon Valley VC fund, and a past guest lecturer at Stanford Business School.
This book shares the framework that Matt and his team have used to help over 200 seed-stage startups grow as much as 100X. It’s packed with examples and clear, step-by-step instructions.
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

They say you shouldn't ask your mom whether your business is a good idea, because she loves you and will lie to you. This is technically true, but it misses the point. You shouldn't ask anyone if your business is a good idea. It's a bad question, and everyone will lie to you at least a little. As a matter of fact, it's not their responsibility to tell you the truth. It's your responsibility to find it, and it's worth doing right.

Story
Paul Jarvis left the corporate world when he realized that working in a high-pressure, high profile world was not his idea of success. In Company of One, Jarvis explains how you can find the right pathway to do the same, including planning how to set up your shop, determining your desired revenues, dealing with unexpected crises, keeping your key clients happy, and of course, doing all of this on your own. Company of One is a refreshingly new approach centered on staying small and avoiding growth, for any size business.

Story
Developing and implementing a strategy is the central task of a leader. A good strategy is a specific and coherent response to - and approach for - overcoming the obstacles to progress. A good strategy works by harnessing and applying power where it will have the greatest effect. Yet, Rumelt shows that there has been a growing and unfortunate tendency to equate Mom-and-apple-pie values, fluffy packages of buzzwords, motivational slogans, and financial goals with “strategy”.

Really good book
I’m an early stage startup founder (pre-PMF) and I found it helpful. I recommend it to others who are in a similar position to me

A must-read for anyone in the startup world
I just finished "Growth Levers"! 🌟 It's not just a book; it's a masterclass in identifying and executing strategic growth opportunities for startups.
Having had the pleasure of meeting Matt in London for a quick chat, I can attest to the depth of his expertise and his genuine commitment to fostering startup growth. The book brilliantly distills years of experience and insights, offering actionable steps that are both innovative and grounded in real-world examples.
The concepts around focusing on those critical growth levers and the idea that a small fraction of efforts can drive the majority of growth are particularly resonant. It's a perspective that I, and surely many others in the startup ecosystem, will find invaluable.
Kudos to Matt for sharing his wisdom and experiences. This book is a must-read for anyone in the startup world looking to push the boundaries of growth and success.📈💡

I love new information, and I’ll never forget the lock analogy
The more deeper I dive into marketing and the more I’ve failed (along with 1.5 successes) I’ve learned the secret sauce is never the company that spent the most on ads. It’s almost always these little yet eventually obvious “hacks” “levers” or whatever you want to call simply “clever.”

Growth Levers mostly focused on interviewing, hiring and few specific growth related opportunities
It was good. I enjoyed some sections more than others and while the book may ne perfect for a start up owner, or an etrepreneur, it may not be best for marketers interested in learning growth.

Absolutely Worth It!
Honestly, I didn't know what to expect with this book. I downloaded it on a whim. I'm so glad it did! Matt Lerner shares insights helping startups achieve rapid growth. Lerner focuses on identifying and optimizing key drivers of business expansion. I found his data-driven approach and emphasis on experimentation to be enlightening. The case studies and real-world examples made the concepts tangible. This audiobook provided me with new ideas on how to analyze and scale my business strategically...and its been in business for 27 years. For entrepreneurs and business leaders aiming to accelerate growth, this audiobook is a valuable resource. Absolutely worth it!
