How exactly would you acquire each of these people, and even beyond that... how would you onboard them?

Which growth loops could you use on them to grow your company or reinforce the value you’re providing?
The examples below are basic, but the more specific you can get the faster you’ll be at acquiring new users. Treat these as A/B tests and iterate quickly, going from one growth loop to the next to see which ones work and which don’t! Even the most successful startups had numerous false starts.
