Seven-step framework called the Growth Equation maps seven levers to exactly why growth stalls and where to act. Two case studies show concrete failure modes: Barry builds features for a 300-person waitlist, hits $2k MRR and stalls instead of reaching $10k; Marta lifts outbound response from 4% to 20% but only achieves 20% activation and suffers ~15% monthly churn (target 4–5%). Prescriptive fixes cover hiring SDRs, onboarding speed, value delivery timing, stickiness and hypothesis-driven experiments.
