Growth Strategist, Performance Marketer, Developer, Data Scientist and Unicorn.
Hi, I'm Georg, a London based Growth Hacker, Data Scientist, and Developer with 14 years of experience turning ideas into thriving businesses. Today, everyone claims to be a developer or data scientist as long as they have an AI prompt open. Take it away and they can't write a line of code or query a dataset on their own. They need their AI prompt the way a junkie needs a needle, and that dependency is a liability that exposes your business to real risk. I have 14 years of hands on experience in data science, development, and performance marketing. No crutches. No copy paste from ChatGPT or Claude Code. Just the real skillset to actually move the needle when growing your business. Oh, I am fluent in English and German 😘
A personal and philosophical exploration of why companies choose to work with contractors over employees, and why the conventional explanation misses the point entirely. Discusses how employment law around working hours is the real driver, the ability to work marathon sessions when deadlines demand it, delivering complex solutions rapidly for clients like Deliveroo and Selfridges, the focused deep work that comes from loving what you do, and the freedom trade-off that makes it all worthwhile. An honest look at contractor life, pricing, and why some of us could never trade this chaos for the safety of a predictable schedule.
A comprehensive guide to shipping products faster without sacrificing what matters. Covers critical path methodology and how to identify what actually blocks launch, the over-engineering trap and why perfect is the enemy of shipped, QA reality and accepting that users will break things you never imagined, the trust the process mindset for working under pressure, time management strategies for maintaining quality under deadline pressure, why customers must define design and logic instead of management teams in meeting rooms, maximising profit by minimising waste, and testing products with real users before committing massive budgets. Includes detailed examples from e-commerce, SaaS, fintech, and agency work with multiple perspectives on each principle.
A comprehensive deep dive into every major testing methodology used in digital marketing. Covers running without tests, A/B testing with two variants, multi-split testing with three or more variants, multivariate testing for element combinations, holdout control groups for measuring incremental lift, geographic split testing for regional campaigns, audience split testing for segment-specific optimisation, and sequential time-based testing for low-traffic scenarios. Each method includes detailed explanations of when to use it, statistical requirements, implementation considerations, advantages and disadvantages, and real-world examples across e-commerce, SaaS, fintech, travel, and retail industries.
A balanced, in depth analysis of whether AI represents another dot com style bubble or a genuine technological revolution. Examines the financial reality of 700 billion dollars in annual spending against actual revenue, explores whether we are using AI correctly or just bolting chatbots onto everything, investigates why most startups are recycling old ideas as wrappers, identifies where AI is genuinely transformative (small custom solutions, problems blocked by thinking power, cost barriers), explains why Meta and Google are rehiring developers despite AI hype, exposes hidden costs in inference, error checking, and implementation, and dissects the benchmark gaming problem of tokenmaxxing. A grown up verdict that acknowledges both the bubble and the real technology underneath.
A comprehensive deep dive into the psychology and mechanics of user onboarding and habit formation. From finding your product's Aha moment through cohort analysis to Nir Eyal's Hook model, James Clear's habit stacking, the Zeigarnik effect, endowed progress effect, and goal gradient effect. Includes Chamath Palihapitiya's Facebook growth team methodology, research data, Python code for measuring activation, and practical implementation strategies.
A comprehensive deep dive into the psychological laws that govern user behaviour and conversion. From Hick's law and Fitts's law to the peak-end rule, serial position effect, Miller's law, cognitive load theory, friction frameworks, and attribute framing. Includes research data, Python code for measuring UX impact, and practical implementation strategies backed by Baymard Institute research.
