Explosive Growth by Cliff Lerner

BEST STARTUP BOOKS OF ALL TIME - Benzinga
TOP GROWTH-HACKING BUSINESS BOOK - Entrepreneur Magazine

Explosive Growth is the secret weapon you need to thrive in the startup world, delivering an adrenaline-pumping journey of explosive highs and gut-wrenching lows, packed with invaluable lessons.

This compelling and inspiring narrative gives entrepreneurs and startup employees a rare behind-the-scenes look inside a fast-growing startup that created the first online dating app and grew to 100 million users. Explosive Growth combines lively and often hilarious storytelling, revealing genius growth tactics, numerous case studies, and its step-by-step playbook to help your startup grow massively.


Discover the Wild Story:
When Snap Interactive was on the brink of collapse, founder Cliff Lerner made a daring bet on an unknown platform called Facebook. The result? An app that exploded to 100,000 new users daily and a stock price that soared by 2,000%. This book reveals the extraordinary chain of events, filled with triumphs and trials, that propelled the world's first dating app to 100 million users.


Why This Book Stands Out:
Explosive Growth isn't just another business book. It's a raw, unfiltered narrative that offers:

  • Hilarious and Heartfelt Stories: Get an inside look at the human side of startup life.
  • Genius Growth Tactics: Learn the strategies that drove exponential user growth.
  • Practical Playbook: Follow a step-by-step guide to scale your startup.

What You'll Learn:

  • IGNITE EXPLOSIVE GROWTH: Craft a product that stands out and captivates users.
  • FOCUS ON THE ESSENTIALS: Identify and master the ONLY 3 METRICS THAT MATTER.
  • ACHIEVE VIRAL GROWTH: Implement strategies to make your user base skyrocket.
  • MEDIA HACKS: Leverage media to gain millions of users effortlessly.
  • CULTIVATE INNOVATION: Build a passionate and innovative team culture.

Michael Lazerow, Founder of Buddy Media, Sold to Salesforce for $700m+. Over $2 billion in exits.
Cliff gave up a lucrative Wall Street career to launch an online dating start-up called SNAP Interactive. With little funding, Snap established itself as one of the leaders and pioneers in the online dating industry, becoming the first social media company to become publicly traded in 2006. SNAP's dating apps have attracted over 100 million users and pioneered numerous online dating innovations including being the first dating site to integrate Facebook's social features into the online dating experience. SNAP's revenue grew 4,412 percent from 2007 to 2011, making it the 9th fastest growing internet company in the US. Cliff served as Snap's CEO for 11 years until 2016 when it was acquired. Since, Cliff has focused on publishing his first book called, Explosive Growth: A Few Things I Learned While Growing To 100 Million Users - And Losing $78 Million. Explosive Growth has been described as a business book like no other, giving real-time insights into the lessons learned of growing Snap's apps to 100 million users, all told through hilarious stories and case-studies. Cliff is a leading social media and online dating visionary and spokesperson. He has appeared on CNBC, Bloomberg, Fortune TV, and many other top tier media outlets, while his products have been featured in the Wall Street Journal and The New York Times. He grew up in long island, lives in Manhattan, and enjoys a good steak, karaoke, traveling, and playing basketball where you can usually find him working on his 3-point shot.
