🚀 “The Hacks Pod” — Our 3 Best Stories on Innovation Hacks

Our 2nd Bonus Pod during our Paternity Week is on 3 of our best pop-biz stories on growth hacks from the last year:


#1. SharkNinja’s stock has climbed 140% this year
 Here’s how it’s taken over your kitchen.


#2. Gin in a motor oil can? Tampons in an ice cream pint?... The new packaging trend is chaos.


#3. The fastest-growing candy right is Nerds Clusters
 It shows there’s a business case in gut instinct.


Share this episode with your buddy who’s building something (or your buddy who should be).


We’ll be back with our usual daily show next week, after Jack’s spent some time getting to know his new baby. But look out for more paternity pods from us dropping this week.
