Ask HN: Will you do us a lil’ favor? What do you think about “Growth Hacking”?
Hi HN folks,
What do you think about the term “Growth Hacking”? We were wondering if we should use it in our site tagline. You see, we run the Capital & Growth site [http://bit.ly/2v5eFOG] that you are likely familiar with from our investor interviews:

In addition, we also provide sales and marketing answers to technical founders. GeekWire called us “the Stackoverflow for startup marketing”:

Recently we were told that "sales and marketing" connotes big, boring enterprises. Not startups.
But we are reluctant to use “Growth Hacking” because we feel it is a made up term. Startup Growth is, after all, the result of either sales or marketing!
We polled the Seattle HN Meetup group (that we help co-organize) and got interesting responses. What do you think?
If you’d be so kind, could you please vote for the tagline you like best? In exchange (if you like) you’ll be entered in a raffle to win a $100 Amazon gift card.

Thanks,
P.S. We’ll share the full results of the poll (including the earlier Seattle HN meetup poll).
Cameron Elliot [http://bit.ly/2uWLMZ7] won the $100 gift card for the previous poll.
