This is the twenty-first episode of Hack To Start.

Your hosts, Franco Varriano (on Twitter @ FrancoVarriano) and Tyler Copeland (on Twitter @ TylerCopeland), speak with Sofia Quintero (on Twitter @ Sofiaqt), an entrepreneur and the Head of Growth at Geckoboard.

Sofia is from Venezuela and has launched many different startups. She was the only female skateboarded to be sponsored by Vans in Venezuela. Sofia shares with us why growth can be dangerous, but also how to leverage some of the most important (yet often forgotten) growth channels: branding and word of mouth.
