Book excerpt: The biggest secret of the startup industry is that bad marketing is the #1 cause of startup failure. This secret exists for two reasons; one, marketers are adept at shifting blame to the product, the market, the user, the management, etc., and two, many of the great startup marketing minds are holding their cards close. In Full-Scale, startup growth consultant and entrepreneur Anthony W. Richardson reveals the exact framework that he has built over the course of his career that enables him grow any startup client, of any industry without as much as a marketing plan or a yearly budget. Some say as many as 90% of startups fail, yet 83% of Anthony W. Richardson's clients are either still in business or have already been acquired. Richardson begins with a bold scientific premise: What if we could say with literal certainty that we are spending our money, time and resources on the marketing tasks that will have the greatest impact? What if we build a formula that measures these things directly against the causes of startup failure? What if the growth marketer is not only responsible for scaling a startup but also any items that would prevent growth? Growing a startup isn't difficult when you start with a great framework. The methodology found in Full-Scale goes even further, beyond growth marketing, and demonstrates how the principles found within this book will also indicate when and how to make other big decisions like: feature development, hiring and firing, pivoting, fund raising getting acquired and more. Suddenly, growth drives the entire operation and the startup is moving at Full-Scale, from the top down, without tips or tricks. Full-Scale presents a new, proven way to grow startups as well as a comparative look at the pitfalls of existing marketing methodologies and why a consultant needed something stronger than simply startup marketing, growth hacking, full-stack or even traditional methods. What if you could actually make that claim using scientific principles and back it up with data? What if you could say words like "best", "fastest", and "most efficient" and mean them literally? The Full-Scale method does just that. After adopting the principles outlined in this book you will be able to say it and mean it. Praise for Full-Scale: "Absolutely worth the investment.

"This is now my go-to recommendation when anyone asks me about startup marketing. Anthony proves that he's got enough skin in the game to know what it's really about. Can't recommend this enough." - Ryan G.
