This document summarizes an accelerator program called Launch Pad Ignition. It connects founders to mentors, office space, and capital. The 12-week program in early 2012 will focus on developing minimum viable products, investment pitches, and demonstrating traction. Founders will gain access to mentors' national networks and events like SXSW to generate exposure for their companies. The goal is for startups to launch products, show revenue growth, and be well-positioned to fundraise by the program's end. Applications are open through January for the February program.

Customer Acquisition: Growth marketing for startupsChris Schultz
Ready, set, launch! Were you thinking "if you build it they will come" would work?
This deck is a how-to guide for developing a customer acquisition for your startup. Customer acquisition marketing has become a hot topic with the expansion of "growth hacking" and Chris breaks down the lenses of how to develop your own strategy.
Topics covered include:
* The "field of dreams" misconception - if you build it they will come
* The Ravikant Thesis by Naval Ravikant - there are only three customer acquisition strategies that matter for startups, SEO, SEM & Viral - how to understand if they will work for you
* Understanding the basis of Growth Hacking by Thomas Knoll
* Devising strategies for inbound marketing channels
* User retention through drip marketing
*
Implicitly or explicitly all competing businesses employ a strategy to select a mix
of marketing resources. Formulating such competitive strategies fundamentally
involves recognizing relationships between elements of the marketing mix (e.g.,
price and product quality), as well as assessing competitive and market conditions
(i.e., industry structure in the language of economics).
