First 90-Day Growth Role Plan

The first 90 days in a new growth role are the highest-stakes stretch in any practitioner's career. You're inheriting a broken analytics stack, a skeptical engineering team, and a CEO who wants results before you've had time to learn the funnel. This plan sequences those 90 days into three phases — First Week, First Month, First Quarter — so you earn trust before you start experimenting. Built from Hila Qu's methodology at Acorns, it gives you the right moves in the right order: audit your tools, map your stakeholders, flag data gaps, identify early wins, and build your growth model — all before your first big experiment runs. What you get: a 22-milestone workbook with Kanban and calendar views, a stakeholder map, and a guided 7-step task that walks you through customization in an hour. For growth PMs, growth marketers, and growth leads starting a new role at a Series B–D company.
