3 Questions with Quin Woodward Pu

How did you get into growth marketing?

I started my career as a writer, and quickly learned what all writers come to know: you can’t support an expensive wine habit just by writing. So, I took my communications skills to the world of marketing. I started at an advertising agency that was leading the way in experiential marketing, and went on to consult to other ad agencies and startups. Along the way, I learned a lot about business and technology, particularly the importance of optimization and automation.

What do you love most about being a growth hacker?

I love helping clients do more with less; it’s what makes me a hacker. Helping clients “unearth” hidden cash by eliminating non-performing campaigns, whether they are ads or content or email sequences. I also love thinking creatively to help companies get in front of untapped audiences.

What’s your favorite marketing tool?

Of course I use Google Analytics (GA), but I really love digging into Google Search Console, and you don’t have to be a technological wizard to understand it, either. It’s a tool that tells you deliciously nosy things like what exactly people are typing into Google to see your website on the SERP (search engine results page). In addition to giving you some great insights on how people find you online, it’s also a fascinating place to see behavior trends of your consumer data set. Link it to your GA account for a very detailed overview of your web properties.
