    What You'll Be Doing

    Plus AI is a profitable, high-growth startup helping professionals create better slides faster inside PowerPoint and Google Slides.

    Your goal for the next 90 days is to build or scale one core growth engine that can compound over time (e.g., SEO, performance marketing, influencer/affiliate, or another channel you think is high leverage).

    Create a one-page "90-Day Growth Engine for Plus AI" plan, then record a video walking through your thinking in detail.

    Challenge Guidelines

    Assessment Format:

    • Written Artifact: One-page "90-Day Growth Engine for Plus AI" plan (create this first)
    • Video Response: One continuous recording, 5-8 minutes
    • AI Usage Declaration: Required

    This challenge is intentionally simple:

    1. Create one 1-page growth artifact
    2. Record a single 5-8 minute video where you walk us through that artifact in detail

    We want to see how you think about growth strategy, experimentation, and focus for a PLG AI product --- and how clearly you can communicate your plan.

    Video Requirements (5-8 minutes total):

    Record one continuous video (no need to edit) where you share your screen and walk through your 1-page artifact.

    1. Quick Context (≈ 30-60 seconds)

    • Briefly summarize your chosen target segment, core problem, and growth lever
    • One sentence on why you focused here

    2. Deep Dive on the Plan (≈ 4-6 minutes) Walk us through your 1-page plan in detail:

    • How you chose your primary growth engine (SEO, performance, influencer, etc.)
    • The experiments you'd run and what you expect to learn from each
    • How you'd measure success and decide what to double down on or kill
    • How this engine compounds over time if it works (what "better" looks like at 6-12 months)

    3. How You'd Actually Operate It (≈ 1-2 minutes)

    • If you started at Plus AI tomorrow, how would you use this plan in your first 90 days?
    • How often would you review metrics, and with whom?
    • One example of how you'd adjust the plan if early results were weaker or stronger than expected

    Focus on clarity, prioritization, and your reasoning --- we're not grading design polish.

    90-Day Growth Engine Plan

    Document · 1 page maxRequired

    Format: .pdf, .doc, .docx, .rtf, .txt, .md

    Your 1-page plan should include:

    1. Target Segment & Core Problem (2-3 bullets)

    • Who are you focusing on first? (e.g., consultants, B2B sales teams, educators)
    • What job are they hiring Plus AI for? (e.g., pitch decks, recurring status updates, training decks)

    2. Chosen Growth Lever (1-2 max)

    • What main channel or engine will you focus on for these 90 days?
    • Why this lever for Plus AI right now (e.g., intent, unit economics, compounding potential)?

    3. Key Experiments & Tactics (3-5 bullets)

    • What specific experiments will you run in this period?
    • How do they ladder up to proving or improving this growth engine?

    4. Success Metrics & Guardrails (3-5 bullets)

    • What success metrics will you track? (e.g., signups from SEO, paid CAC vs LTV proxy, activation rate, team conversions)
    • Any guardrails? (e.g., max CAC, minimum retention, quality thresholds)

    5. Sequencing & Focus (simple timeline or phases)

    • How you'd roughly sequence the work across the 90 days (e.g., 0-30, 30-60, 60-90)
    • What you're deliberately not doing in this period (to protect focus)

    Think of it as a draft you'd email to the founders to align on one concrete 90-day growth thesis.
