1. #52 - Growth Hacking and Standup Comedy with Matt
Ellsworth
Matt Ellsworth is our guest today. The guy is a total stud and in this interview we're going to start by
talking about how using a combination of scraping, vritual assistants, and cold emails he built a
massive lead generation machine at his last startup storefront. So much so that his outsourced team
was sending out thousands of targeted, personalized emails a week while his interal sales team
could focus on responding to warm leads. But this convo isn't just all about startups...despite
seemingly being on top of the world as a preeminent Growth guy in Silicon Valley, Matt left his last
company to pursue standup comedy and focus on some others. We'll talk about how he thought
about pursuing a different type of dream when everyone around him expected him to do more
startup stuff. Super inspiring stuff.
