👋 Hi, it’s Kyle and I’m back with a 🔥 edition of Growth Unhinged, my newsletter that explores the unexpected behind the fastest-growing startups.

Up today: Navattic’s growth team — specifically Raman Khanna (Head of Product Growth) and Natalie Marcotullio (Head of Growth & Operations) — join Growth Unhinged in what might be our most tactical guest post ever. They unpack how Navattic 6x-ed activation and 5x-ed free-to-paid conversion — and bring all the receipts to help you do it, too (there are 15 product screenshots). Hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
