This playbook is FREE (for now!). How do you get it for free? Just put a 0 into the "Name a fair price" field and hit "I want this."

Learn the play-by-play system to select the best-fit market to launch next at your startup.

So you’ve decided it’s time to expand your startup and select your second market to launch.

Things are going well in your first market.

You have customers, revenue and a great team.

But just because it’s all working in your first market, doesn’t mean it will work in your second.

I helped launch 15 new markets for 2 unicorns. Selecting the right city can make or break your launch. This playbook will show you how.

Who this playbook is for:

• Startup founders and operators
• People leaders scaling startup teams
• Employees at growing startups

You'll learn:

✔️ How to create a launch criteria matrix to rank each market.

✔️ How to stack-rank your target cities and prioritize the order for future launches.

✔️ How to avoid opening the wrong market and having to shut it down.

✔️ The 10 dimensions that have the biggest impact on successfully selecting your next market to launch.

✔️ To re-program how you think about picking a market to complement your first.

✔️ The biggest problem with picking your next market and how to get past it (spoiler: it's how you quantify each dimension and score your markets).

✔️ How to stack your launches to "engineer" the growth and traction investors want to see. “Up and to the right” 📈
