MISTAKES
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Creating the product first,
thinking about marketing later
#1
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Fousing on product creation is a business mindset
that was popular and very effective in... 1960s
1960s
21st Century
You have to create products that will be loved and
used by customers, not you!
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Offering “nice to have,” but
not essential value
#2
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
• 106 repair shops in 5 countires interviewed
• Some of them interviewed 5 or 6 times
• 26 prototypes built in PowerPoint

STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Lack of market verification: saying is
not the same as paying!
#3
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
are trying to address really serious problems and
create tremendous value but don’t test it in the
market or they do it in the wrong way
42,6%
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
You’ll never have real market verification until customers
give you their money for your product.
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Location 124.5 million households in USA
Food gardening
31% of all US households (estimated at 36 million) did food gardening in 2008
(2015 data is available under paid subscription at National Gardening
Association)
Climate zone 22% of the 36 million households (or 7.92 million) are cold climate gardeners
Gardening purpose
Vegetable gardeners are 23% of
7.92 or 1.7 million households
Herb gardeners are 12% of 7.92 or 0.95
million households
Target market size 1.7 + 0.95 = 2.6 million households
Campaign goal
2,000 households, which is less than 0.08% of the estimated target market
size
Modgarden
Anything to please investors
instead of customers
#4
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
can bring money, their network, and quick solutions to
some of the challenges of a startup, but only if you
have a valuable and verified solution.
Investors
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
If they are happy, many things follow automatically,
including the investors standing at your door to provide
you needed funds.
Customers
Thinking that “we have no
competitors”
#5
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
have evaluated their micro and macro business
environment, while others hadn’t even thought about it
33,9%
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Ask Yourself
“How can we find out with whom we are competing”
We have brilliant idea and it
will go viral by itself
#6
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Why should anyone recommend your service or
product? What’s in it for them to do so?
“Hope marketing”
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
3 Engines of Growth
Take action to implement at least one of those engines:
viral, sticky, paid
A good growth hacker is all we
need!
#7
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Good growth hacker will kill your startup if you are
not well prepared!
Death by Growth
<20%
Only 20% of startups have developed their up-sell and
cross-sell strategies
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Marketing needs a huge
budget, therefore we’ll take
care of it after fundraising
#8
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
were already on the market, but only 39.4% had
developed their brand and positioning and only
17.4% had a consistent marketing plan
47,9%
Crafting positioning statement and marketing
strategy as well as creating a marketing plan
requires effort, not money!
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
We’ll enter the market with
“big boom” launch
#9
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Big launches might be a strategy for the well-
established, traditional business, but for startups,
it usually just causes failure in the form of wasted
money and insufficient sales.
WRONG!
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Burning money instead of
investing
#10
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
Allways know hos wast you are “burning” your
money. Does it create tangible value?
Cash Burn Rate
STARTUP MARKETING: MISTAKES
See the Difference
between fundraised and earned money and which
milestones you can achieve with current “cash burn” rate
• $11 million fundraised
• Entered into 13 country markets
• Team of more than 150 people
• Millions of users!
• Run out of funds!...

Purpose
Target customers enroll in comprehensive online courses at a
price range of $997 - $2,999
How to achieve it
Lead magnets will generate sign ups to free online mini-courses
that will solve one or more painful problems related to startup
marketing and will deliver tangible value right during the course.
Then I will show them what other problems could be solved in my
comprehensive online courses and how these courses help
startups to build a profitable and scalable business faster.
Strategic calls (video conference via Skype) could be used for
onboarding high ticket customers at the final stage.
Target market
Early stage startups who have innovative ideas, but are still
searching for how to build a profitable and scalable business, and
have no resources or don’t want to spend them on hiring
professional marketers or consultants at this early stage.
Marketing weapons
Lead magnets (templates and spreadsheets for startup
marketing, free online courses, webinars), virality boost tools (for
example Maitre App, Pay with a tweet), social media advertising,
contextual advertising, blogging and guest blogging, guest
speaking at startup events, email marketing automation, affiliate
marketing partnerships, free e-books, and other useful
giveaways.
Niche
Comprehensive startup marketing online courses with six months
mentoring and one-on-one consulting.
Identity Expertise, individual, and in-depth approach
