About This Blog
Welcome to Experimenting with Growth, my corner of the internet where I document what it really takes to grow products.
I’m Rishikesh Ranjan, a growth hacker & GTM engineer. On any given day, I’m juggling roles: part marketer, part data analyst, part automation engineer, and part product strategist. This blog is where I share the experiments, frameworks, and lessons from that messy mix.
Why This Blog Exists
Most content on “growth hacking” is advice-heavy: do this, don’t do that. The truth? Growth isn’t a formula. It’s experiments.
Here, I don’t pretend to have a guidebook of answers. Instead, I:
Share real experiments I’ve run (what worked and what didn’t).
Break down growth loops, funnels, and GTM plays from SaaS & PLG companies.
Explore how AI & automation are reshaping growth.
Publish interviews with founders and operators who’ve done this at scale.
If you’re building or growing a product, you’ll find practical takeaways you can test in your own work.
What You’ll Find Here
Case Studies & Breakdowns → e.g. PostHog, Perplexity, Cursor AI, Lovable
Growth Loops & Frameworks → word-of-mouth loops, viral loops, community loops
AI + Growth Experiments → LangChain, Relay.app, PostHog MaxAI, n8n automations
Playbooks from the Field → experiments I’ve run at StreamAlive and beyond
Founder Interviews → lessons from SaaS leaders and GTM engineers turned founders
