This post was written by Sarah Milstein, co-host of The Lean Startup Conference. We’re looking for speakers for the 2013 Lean Startup Conference. If you’re a Lean Startup veteran, feel free to skim the beginning, as this is mostly stuff you already know. Last week, we announced that our short application form was live.

This is completely analogous to the situation elsewhere on the internet, where launching a new website, product, or service with PR is getting harder and harder.

Four books helped me out a lot over the last few years: Four Steps to the Epiphany by Steve Blank, Running Lean by Ash Maurya, The Four Hour Workweek by Timothy Ferris and Rework by Jason Fried & David Heinemeier Hansson.

Extra credit if you can explain the significance of both of these spots and why the HP PR machine won the rewrite of Valley history.

In the article, Andrew describes growth hackers as a cross between marketers and coders. PR and publicity drive attention…to drive sales. What I believe Sean Ellis is getting at is a methodology and set of processes, not a string of silver bullets and moonshots (maybe akin to what the Lean Startup methodology is to entrepreneurship?).
