BAMF BIBLE 2018 - Top growth hacks used in 2018 (Updated for 2019)

The distribution model is super dodgy. You have to connect to Facebook messenger and then also give an email address which is never actually used in the process of sending you the book. EDIT: It also opts you in to the messenger subscription, in direct breach of the Facebook usage guidelines. But, I guess, this is a "growth hack". EDIT2: I have absolutely no problem with asking for a messenger or email subscription, that is something completely normal and acceptable in marketing and is a great way for people who are interested to stay engaged with your brand. The difference here is that you do not ask for a messenger or email subscription. You tell people they can get the book by pressing that button, but don't tell them that it will also opt them in to a messenger subscription. And then you ask for an email to which you will send the book, but then don't actually send the book to that email. I assume you add that email to your mailing list given what you've said here. This is absolutely misleading. The user does not knowingly opt-in to these subscriptions, and you aren't told how to opt-out unless you read the book (yes, I did read it!). A simple disclaimer telling the user that by clicking the link they are subscribing to a messenger list would completely fix this.

Hey everyone, I have spent the last couple of years creating one of the largest growth hacking communities, Badass Marketers & Founders (20,000+ members). This is a compilation of the best growth hacks from the hundreds we ran in 2018 - all of which still work today. This is the complete recipe book of growth hacks (400 pages of how-to tactics) -Facebook -Affiliate and referral -Events -LinkedIn -Quora -Backlinks -Instagram -Cold Email -PR Hacking -Product Hunt -Content Marketing -Growth Hacking Tools It's received excellent early feedback from many people we respect, and we hope you'll check it out. Please note that it does require a Messenger optin (that means you need to turn your Adblock off) *If - for some reason - the button doesn't work for you, please email josh@bamf.media.* Thank you

First they say they'll send it to messenger

Then you receive a message in messenger asking for your email address

Wouldn't be surprised to receive an email asking for my phone number

Pros:

None so far

Cons:

too much data to share for it

Any way to get this for the growing number of people who have removed themselves from FB and social media in general ?

I have been following Josh for the last 1 1/2 year and all these growth hacks have helped me generate more leads and sales and develop my B2B sales skills. I am so excited that I can use new ones and try and see what works best. This is a no-brainer for every sales professional.

Pros:

All the latest hacks to grow and scale your business as fast as possible

Cons:

Wish there were even more of those hacks! I am more focused on B2B sales so I would like even more use cases on that (Linkedin, Email, etc)

It would be great if the product wasn't phishing for Facebook accounts by requiring Messenger.

I have been in online marketing and Internet start-ups for more than 15 years. I have seen them all and learned from them all. Never have I seen someone rise up through the ranks as fast and as awesome as Josh. Besides being a super nice guy, one of the keys to his success is that he jsut constantly gives. And it's not like he gives a little and then asks you to pay for the good stuff, he gives you the Good Stuff! For free! All the time! He is a class act and his firm will be in the top 3 media firms in the next 2 years. Guaranteed!

Is anybody else experiencing problems with downloading the book? I tried to connect with Messenger, but didn't receive a download link.

Is nobody creeped out by chapters with titles such as "how to get the personal emails of your competitor's Facebook group members"?

If you don't find at least 1 actionable item to implement in your marketing strategy, you probably didn't read it.

Pros:

Get this ebook before your competitors do

Cons:

none so far

Josh has built his reputation on his ability to produce top tier growth hacks .

I highly recommend sharing with anyone who wants to grow their business!

Pros:

Incredibly insightful

Cons:

Nada

Sounds good but how do I get this? I see "Success! View it in Messenger" but then it just opens my messenger windows with my own messages? I tried clicking 'Get Started' with the Josh Fetcher user but it just says "This person isn't available right now"?

Well I see this as a useful book and it's a big community surrounding it. Lot's of useful details. I went through the back it's a lot of really black hat dirty tactics, similar to his on boarding process. They are a decent marketing team thou, I can see the value of other companies hiring them to do the black hat stuff that they do...

Pros:

It's a lot of useful information. Lot's of black-hat stuff thou.

Cons:

Can't download the book. Have to literally email the guy.
