Later (by demand)¶
New areas open once people ask for them: SEO ยท content marketing (incl. newsletters) ยท conversion ยท retention ยท
analytics (beyond the Firebase setup in launch-growth-stack-setup). More social: YouTube long-form, influencer outreach. More research skills: user interviews, market sizing. More playbooks: grow an app, monetize a free app.
Translations (Vietnamese first) are welcome once the English skills are stable.
Principles¶
- Depth over breadth. A new area opens only after it has at least 3 good skills.
- Every skill: under an hour, a copy-paste prompt, and a concrete output.
- Numbers are real or labelled Illustrative.
