Why Growth?
Why do organizations have dedicated efforts around Growth?
![Page 9: Product School: Growth Explained by Facebook's Core Product Manager](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/58e79a701a28ab0d288b6429/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Why Growth?• Growth answers a fundamental question about a
product: Is there a product market fit?• It’s hard to drive revenue with product – market fit
but you can have product market fit without revenue or without profit (Uber)
• Growth is up = Your product creates repeating value for its users, so users keep coming back

Growth Metric• Your growth metric should reflect the product
market fit • It should also imply about future financial results
How can you identify an organization’s growth metric?

Growth Metric
“We added 7.05 million net new members globally in the quarter, against our forecast of 5.20 million
and last year's Q4 performance of 5.59 million. This was the largest quarter of net additions in our
history and was driven by strong acquisition trends in both our US and International segments. “

Growth Accounting - Users• Active users – a user that used the product
over a certain time period (e.g. last month)
How does the number of active users grow?How does the number of active users shrink?
![Page 16: Product School: Growth Explained by Facebook's Core Product Manager](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/58e79a701a28ab0d288b6429/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Growth Accounting - FormulaActive users today = New Users + Resurrected users – Churned users
• New Users – users that joined today• Churned users – users that their last day using the product
was exactly X+1 days ago (X = growth period)• Resurrected users – users that didn’t use the product in the X
days and are using it today
![Page 17: Product School: Growth Explained by Facebook's Core Product Manager](https://reader035.fdocuments.in/reader035/viewer/2022062310/58e79a701a28ab0d288b6429/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Growth Accounting - Example• Yesterday we had 100 monthly active users• Today 10 more registered • 3 users used the product for the last time 31 days
ago • 1 user that didn’t use the product for over 30 days
used it today • Monthly active users today = ?

Growth Accounting - Retention• Retention isn’t part of the accounting formula
but it is critical for growth and to understand product market fit!

A word about dataGROWTH PRODUCTS MUST BE DATA DRIVEN! • You must be able to answer questions like: – Where are my non users spending their time? – Why do people fail to convert ?– Who are the people that retain / churn? – Etc…
