YOU'RE NOT READY FOR A HEAD OF GROWTH

Summary from the TLDR Founders newsletter

Don't rush to hire a Head of Growth—own it first. Early-stage growth can't be delegated. Founders should dive hands-on into discovering "growth levers": pinpoint bottlenecks in your customer journey, deeply understand user motivations (use "Jobs to Be Done" interviews), and rapidly experiment to move those levers. Avoid getting stuck in the traps of overthinking, underthinking, or prematurely delegating, and instead embed an experimental, growth-driven mindset across your team. Remember, PayPal's explosive growth hinged on a few high-impact bets—yours will too.
