Most people talk about marketing, but very few understand growth. Marketing helps you get attention. Growth helps you build a business that keeps expanding.
And that’s exactly why I created the NPM Growth Method, a simple system that shows you how real growth happens online.
But before we dive into the method, let’s start with the problem.
Growth is not luck. Growth is a system. And when you follow the system, your results stop being accidental and start becoming predictable.
Why Traditional Marketing Isn’t Enough Anymore
First, traditional marketing follows a simple funnel:
- People see your product
- People like your product
- People want your product
- People buy your product
This is helpful, but it stops too early.
It focuses only on the beginning of the customer journey.
However, real growth happens after someone buys.
This is where most businesses fall apart.
And this is exactly where the NPM Growth Method becomes powerful.
What Makes Growth Marketing Different?
Instead of focusing only on awareness and sales, growth marketing looks at the entire journey.
It includes six stages
- Awareness
- Acquisition
- Activation
- Retention
- Revenue
- Referral
Now let’s walk through each stage, step by step.


✅ 1. Awareness First, People Must Know You Exist
Awareness answers one simple question
How many people do you reach?
This is the first stage because nothing else matters until people discover you.
You build awareness through
- social media content
- valuable threads
- sharing your journey
- ads
Key Metrics
- Content impressions
- Social followers
- Website visitors
In short, awareness is the door people walk through before they learn anything about you.
✅ 2. Acquisition Next, People Must Take the First Step
Once people know you, the next step is getting them to show interest.
Acquisition answers
How many people take the first important step?
This could be
replying to your outreach
booking a call
joining your email list
downloading a resource
Key Metrics
- Cost per lead
- Calls booked
- Pipeline value
This matters because acquisition is where relationships begin.
✅ 3. Activation After That, People Must Say Yes
Activation is the moment someone becomes a real customer.
It answers
How many people sign up or buy?
This is where you present your offer clearly and help people make a confident decision.
Key Metrics
- CAC
- Trial sign‑ups
- New customers
In other words, activation turns interest into action.
✅ 4. Retention, People Must Come Back Again
Retention is one of the strongest growth levers.
It answers
How many people return for a second, third, or tenth time?
This is where you build trust and deliver value early.
Key Metrics
- Churn rate
- Trial conversions
- In‑app activity
Because of this, retention becomes cheaper and more profitable than constantly finding new customers.
✅ 5. Revenue, People Must Pay (And Pay More Over Time)
Revenue answers
How many people pay, and how much do they pay?
Your goal is to create a sustainable revenue model that supports long‑term growth.
Key Metrics
- LTV
- AOV
- ASC
As a result, your business becomes stable instead of unpredictable.
✅ 6. Referral. Finally, People Must Bring Others
Referral is the last stage, but it creates the biggest impact.
It answers
How many people refer friends to your business?
When you deliver so much value that customers can’t help but talk about you, your growth becomes exponential.
Key Metrics
- Shared links
- Referred users
In the end, referrals turn your customers into your marketing team.
How the NPM Growth Method Ties Everything Together
The NPM Growth Method simplifies everything into three steps:
✅ N – Nurture (Awareness + Acquisition)
✅ P – Present (Activation + Revenue)
✅ M – Multiply (Retention + Referral)
This means: You nurture your audience, you present your offer, you multiply your growth.
And when you follow this flow consistently, your business grows naturally.
Growth Is a System, Not Guess Work
Most people try random tactics. But real growth comes from following a clear method.
The NPM Growth Method helps you
- reach more people
- convert more customers
- keep customers longer
- earn more revenue
- get more referrals
Finally, when you treat growth like a system, your results become predictable, not accidental.
