If you run a business and want to understand your local market, GrowthIM gives you a full report in minutes. This guide walks you through the whole thing, from creating your account to reading every section of your report. No technical knowledge needed.
Here is exactly how it works.
Step 1: Sign Up
Head to growthim.com and create your account. All you need is your email to get started. Signing up takes less than a minute.
Once you enter your details, you are ready to verify your email.
Step 2: Verify Your Email
After you sign up, GrowthIM sends a verification code to your email. Open your inbox, find the email, and enter the code to confirm your account. This keeps your account secure and makes sure your reports reach you.
Once verified, you land in your account.
Step 3: Your Dashboard
After you verify, you arrive at your dashboard. This is your home base, where all your reports will live. The first time, it is empty, so there is just one button to look for: New Report. Click it to start your first analysis.
Step 4: Enter Your Business
Now tell GrowthIM which business you want a report on. Start typing your business name and it automatically finds your business and pulls in its details, so you do not have to type anything manually. Just select your business when it appears in the list.
Once you confirm your business, you move on to checkout.
Step 5: Checkout
A GrowthIM report is a one-time $29.99, with no subscription and no recurring charges. Enter your details on the secure checkout to complete your purchase.
After payment, GrowthIM goes to work. It pulls from 27 APIs and databases to analyze your entire local market. Your report is typically ready in about 15 to 30 minutes. You can keep the tab open or close it and come back later, since your report will be waiting for you in your dashboard.
When it is ready, open it from your dashboard. Now comes the best part: reading what GrowthIM found about your market.
