Growth hacking is a mindset, not any particular trick
So far, we talked about the growth hack stories; you can also find a lot of growth hack “tricks” online. And, there are growth hacking tools available.
However, I’d argue that growth hacking is a mindset, most importantly. It’s a low CAC (ie, Customer Acquisition Cost), ever-experimenting, 10X growth mindset.
