10x Marketing Formula Toolbox

10x Marketing Formula by Garrett Moon Book cover

Summary:

This book’s title tips off the premise: we're after 10x marketing results. This means the return we expect, and are resolved to achieve, is ten times over what we put in. We aren’t looking for 10 percent year-over-year growth; we’re laser-focused on blowing the roof off last year’s, last month’s, and last week’s numbers. To do this requires a mindset shift. You can’t expect 10x results from copying everyone else. What worked for someone else isn’t a guarantee to work for you. This means drafting a binder full of charts and best guesses and calling it a marketing plan is doomed to fail. It’s too crowded and the world moves too fast for “copycat marketing.” This book is about finding those strategic shortcuts. It’s about short-circuiting the path to jaw-dropping growth. You have to find your own way – and the 10x-Marketing Formula is that path. What's Inside the 10x Marketing book.

Mindset: Content Hacking

A content hacker is a “results or die” marketer who merges agile growth tactics with high-converting content to achieve rapid 10x growth. The content hacker ethos is: one part marketing, one part engineering, one part high risk, and a whole lot of high reward.

Noah Kagan and the Proactive Dashboard
