BONUS CONTENT: 3 newsletter-exclusive growth insights from Lewis himself…
1⃣ Test Smartly, Fail Wisely: For early-stage start-ups, cultivate a culture that sees failure as a stepping stone, not a setback. Finding the right growth channel often means failing at several others first. But avoid impatience; don’t abandon a strategy before giving it a fair shake.
2⃣ Diversify Growth Channels: Never pin all your hopes on a single growth channel. Markets fluctuate; algorithms change. Always have a Plan B and C. Prepare for the inevitable day when your primary channel underperforms.
3⃣ Cultivate a Growth Mindset: Resilience and persistence are the backbones of growth. On tough days, your mindset will be your best asset. Apply the same discipline to personal development, whether it’s hitting the gym or unplugging from your phone. Remember, nurturing a growth mindset in all aspects of your life will elevate your professional performance.
