After driving growth for my third VC-backed exit, Andrew Lee Miller (@andrewstartups) founded GrowthExpertz, a unique growth agency focused solely on helping tech startups in their first 12-24 months post-funding. Since 2016 weve helped over a dozen startups get to 8-9 figure valuation, several exits, and almost 100 total successful projects. We specialize in full-stack growth, handled remotely by expertz, for companies that have raised capital but still need help with marketing. We work in the background to strategize, launch and scale their organic and paid campaigns while they handle everything else. Some notable clients: www.datadistillr.com (raised $10m off of our work) www.canweapp.com (exited) www.withdouble.com (grew 30% in first 3 months) www.getemails.com (now retention.com doing $30m ARR) www.CrownDating.com (exit to Tinder/Match Group) www.denizen.io (BBVA Incubator) www.zedge.net (100m+ installs) www.different.com.au (now one of the largest startups in Australia) www.fly.com (300% increase in traffic in 12 months) www.openinvest.co (acquired by Chase) We are industry agnostic but often focus on SaaS, Fintech, Marketplace, Online Dating, Consumer Mobile Apps, and more.
