Essays on tech, growth, and startups at andrewchen
Get my newsletter, usually once a week – it features long-form essays on what’s going on here in Silicon Valley. I’ve written 550+ essays which have been featured and quoted in The New York Times, Fortune, Wired, and WSJ. The topics range from mobile product design to fundraising to “growth hacking.” Andrew is one of the smartest geeks in Silicon Valley, and a brilliant and comprehensive virtuoso on a broad array of tech and non-tech topics including internet advertising, viral marketing, web analytics, social networks, online games, and all kinds of web glitter.

The result was the Motion Picture Experts Group Format 1, Audio Layer III , a format you know and love, though only by its acronym, MP3.

GrowthHackers - Premier Growth Community Hi Sophie - that's awesome you're seeing cross-functional growth teams from the get go! Cross-functional growth teams are not unique, although they can be difficult to get right in order to truly impact the growth of customer value.
