Summer 2012: Waze Doubles Its User Base To 20 Million In 6 Months


Stashed in: Growth Hacks!, Active Users

To save this post, select a stash from drop-down menu or type in a new one:

Curious to know what they're doing in order to grow this fast...

Two ways:

1. Word of mouth. Its users are rabid and they tell other users to get it because Waze is useful.

2. Social. Easy to share updates on Facebook and Twitter.

They also did some partnerships with broadcast TV that helped them get to 10mm users.

But 10mm to 20mm is all word-of-mouth and social, it seems.
