Some of the most basic questions can be answered in spreadsheets. There is sharing and collaboration baked in. It takes a fraction the time to change formats compared to coding. It keeps you focused on real problems to solve, not shiny promises.

@ikirigin Ivan, could you share some examples of growth-hacky things you've done with spreadsheets?

@hrishio processing analytics data, making a metrics dashboard, analyzing customer data in a huge table, processing surveys, oursourcing data entry for curating sales leads, cleaning up scraped data... By my count, that covers around >$100B in market cap of public companies that provide these services.

I live and die with Google Spreadsheets. I agree with @ikirgin - it keeps you disciplined and also allows you to easily share data with colleagues or others. Growth is such a collaborative effort and Google Spreadsheets have made that easier than ever.
