HI THERE - I’M GROWTH HACKER
GRANNY.
Ok - what’s up, dear digital marketer? They call me

Growth Hacker Granny. Want to know how I got
my name?
The story goes on like this. I was a housewife
initially - you know doing the chores and stuff every-
day. I lived in Bangalore, India at a middle-class home.
My hubby was already dead before Rahul - my son was
born. Rahul Sharma worked as a Marketing Manager
at a startup company for years here in Bangalore. (True
- he isn’t as brilliant as me, now also, I guess..) But, one
day Rahul got a job at a multi-national company in the
US and he flew there. Drat! He never returned to India
at all and I didn’t get a phone call from him, either. He
didn’t show up to meet me - his beloved mother at all.
viii | Hi there - I’m Growth Hacker Granny.
Sources like the lady next door told me that he is living

happily settled in California with his 2 new-born kids.
Now, when this initially happened - I knew that I
got to make money for a living. I am not bring paid any
kind of pension, I knew. What can I do now, was the
question.
One day, when I was browsing the book-shelf casu-
ally, I found a book on Digital Marketing. I was briefly
exploring and reading the pages and then I was
engrossed in the subject of social media, SEO, SEM,
ASO, Lead-Gen etc. and it all made sense suddenly.
Even though I haven’t studied marketing in the past or
digital marketing, the subject was too good to read. I
finished reading the book and new ideas and thoughts
came to me.
Then I thought that I should be experimenting
some strategies from the book and lo and behold! Who
would know that I would start an online e-commerce
business and become successful selling millions of
products to customers and driving insane sales every
hour? Now, they call me growth hacker granny. Now
wait, how did my story finish?
Rahul came back to India once he came to know
that I was a millionaire, officially by reading the local
newspapers or online publication or websites like
Google News Portals where they had my photo in the
first page, obviously - mind you. Now, I am really
Hi there - I’m Growth Hacker Granny. | ix
happy with all the stuff I do and what’s more? I am

willing to share my actionable strategies here in
this book.
Forget any growth hacking ebook, course or video
you've ever seen till now. They all are simply stupid. I
am Growth Hacking Granny and I am going to bring in
new digital marketing ideas or growth hacks to
skyrocket your product through this book series.
This first book of 12 social media growth hacks is
not a marketing or a growth hacking book for social
media ideas; it's a step-by-step -hands on guide to
getting users, traffic, and revenue to any business -
whatsoever.
It will play a crucial part to break down every
channel in order, telling you exactly what you need to
succeed -practically.
LIGHTS! CAMERA! ACTION!

Free Alternatives: None, at present. A basic free
alternative with minimum features from Google is
Google Trends live at https://trends.google.com/trends/

1) Head over to
https://epicenter.epictions.com/epicbeat/explore/

Type in something like “Advertising” or “Technology”
as an example.
3) You will find a lot of trending articles that you
sort accordingly divided into total engagement, shares,
comments, applause etc. Filter out the most recent arti-
cles by changing the date in the column titled as “Pub-
lished in the”. Example would be “Published in the last
24 hours”.
4) To change the other columns over there like
content format or content type or Country, you can
sign up for a paid plan starting from just $2 a day (cur-
rent price).
5) Also, click on view sharers for a particular article
to find out your influencers for the content topic that
you searched for.

https://business.twitter.com/en/targeting/tailored-
audiences.html before you do anything else

and create a custom targeted campaign. (Note: This would
get you 90% conversions, supposedly you are promoting
or written something similar related to “Advertising” or
“Technology” which you searched for earlier at EpicBeat.
This is because the audience here loves only that genre.
Hope you understood this. This is crucial.
10) Watch the results soar and more traffic coming
to your blog or social media profiles. Who knows? You
can also send them to landing pages created using
www.unbounce.com or www.instapage.com and make
sales happen.
Bonus Tip:
Growth Hacker Granny recommends that this
procedure is also possible through the usage of a tool
which is www.buzzsumo.com. Please take a free trial

GRANNY’S BACK AGAIN IN AN ALL
NEW BOOK?
Hi there - Growth Hacker Granny here again. My fans want

me to write another book on SEO Hacks that are totally
actionable to the core to bring any website or app to the top
of search engines or crack app engines in less than a month.
I take up this challenge. I’ve also been teaching Rahul to get
featured on top sites like Forbes too. The book will be
launching soon so - be at the edge of your seat when it does.
For now, I am going on a holiday to Goa. Drop by there, if
you would like to see me at a resort. Cool..Have a great
month ahead..
“By the way, Rahul - where’s my coffee? Got to meet an
urgent client now….”
——
Yours lovingly,
Growth Hacker Granny
