Lean Startup Analytics/Metrics

Hinweis der Redaktion

  1. Today we’re going to talk about vanity… but probably not in the way that you expected
  2. Downloads, app opens, app reviews, # of registered users
  3. But if you were to overstate their significanceDanger… you run the risk of losing sight of what really matters.
  4. Rides.
  5. The understanding of the metric is incomplete if we don’t understand why it’s changing
  6. Ridership metrics subject to the following factors which are completely out of our hands and may completely invalidate all would-be meaningful conclusions
  7. Ridership metrics subject to the following factors which are completely out of our hands and may completely invalidate all would-be meaningful conclusions.
  8. You don’t even know if all the “great changes” you’re making are actually improving the product, or if it was getting better in spite of your efforts.
  9. How do we get to meaningful conclusions?
  10. Examples of how we could do this. Callback to things that do/don’t impact metrics. Such as rain. We know it increases ridership, but we can’t control whether or not it rains, at least, not yet.
  11. Meaningfulanalytics and metrics empower you to draw intelligent conclusions that you might not have been able to determine otherwise. It lets you validate and challenge your assumptions.
  12. Targeting this conversation at small companies (>30 and <100). Speak to my experience. Talk about systems.
  13. NOTE: THIS IS NOT PERFECT
  14. If you send me 30 pages of reports I will read 0 pages of reports
  15. On that note, I’d like to close out and leave some time for questions
