Abstract
The purpose of the study is to examine the influence of growth hacking on marketing capability, disruptive innovation, and firms’ performance. Structural equation modeling was used to analyze the data. The results show that growth hacking positively influences marketing capabilities, disruptive innovation, and firms’ performance. Further, marketing capabilities and disruptive innovation were observed to mediate the association between growth hacking and firm performance, whereas technological turbulence moderates the association between disruptive innovation and firm performance. The findings suggest that firms can use growth hacking to foster marketing capabilities and disruptive innovation, which may affect firm performance. Besides, firms need to constantly monitor the technological turbulence levels.
期刊介绍：
The Journal of Business Research aims to publish research that is rigorous, relevant, and potentially impactful. It examines a wide variety of business decision contexts, processes, and activities, developing insights that are meaningful for theory, practice, and/or society at large. The research is intended to generate meaningful debates in academia and practice, that are thought provoking and have the potential to make a difference to conceptual thinking and/or practice. The Journal is published for a broad range of stakeholders, including scholars, researchers, executives, and policy makers. It aids the application of its research to practical situations and theoretical findings to the reality of the business world as well as to society. The Journal is abstracted and indexed in several databases, including Social Sciences Citation Index, ANBAR, Current Contents, Management Contents, Management Literature in Brief, PsycINFO, Information Service, RePEc, Academic Journal Guide, ABI/Inform, INSPEC, etc.
