*Generated with StratArts - Business Strategy Skills Library*
*Next recommended skill: `growth-experimentation-engine` to optimize GTM channels*
1. Focus on 2-3 Channels Max Spreading thin across 10 channels = mediocre results. Dominate 2-3.
2. Match Channel to Customer Where does your target customer already spend time? Go there.
3. Set Realistic Targets Use benchmarks: typical trial→paid conversion is 15-25%, CAC payback <12 months.
4. Build in Experimentation Assume 50% of tactics won't work. Test, measure, iterate.
5. Budget for the Full Funnel Don't just drive traffic. Optimize landing page, trial experience, onboarding.
6. Track Leading Indicators Traffic and signups predict revenue. Monitor weekly to course-correct.
