Agenda The Basics Measure Stuff. Keep It Simple. 5 Steps: Startup Metrics for Pirates ( AARRR !) 3 Items: Biz Model, Conversion, Mktg Channels Iterate & Optimize. One Step at a Time. Appendix Activation Retention Acquisition Referral Revenue
The Startup Metrics Religion Progress ≠ Features Focus on User Experience Measure Conversion; Compare 2+ Options Fast & Frequent Iteration Keep it Simple & Actionable
Be Bold. Be Humble. Stuff That Matters: Passion for Problem/Solution + Hypothesis of Customer Lifecycle 1-page Business Model : Prioritized List of (Users + Conversions) Critical, Few, Actionable Metrics + Dashboard of Measured User Behavior 1-pg Marketing Plan : (Channels + Campaigns) * (Volume, Cost, Conv %) Velocity of (Product Execution + Cycle Time of Testing ) * Iteration 20% Inspiration + 80% Perspiration Long-term: Audacity + Creative Inspiration Short-term: Humility + Analytic Rigor
Web 2.0: What’s So Special? Startup Costs = Lower # Users, Bandwidth = Bigger Online Adv / E-Com = Still Growing Collect Usage Metrics in Real-Time Make Decisions Based on User Behavior
Just Gimme the GOOD Metrics. Users, Pages, Clicks, Emails, $$$...? Q: Which of these is best? How do you know? 1,000,000 one-time, unregistered unique visitors 500,000 visitors who view 2+ pages / stay 10+ sec 200,000 visitors who clicked on a link or button 20,000 registered users w/ email address 2,000 passionate fans who refer 5+ users / mo. 1,000 monthly subscribers @ $35/mo the good stuff.
Types of Measurement Qualitative : Usability Testing / Session Monitoring Watch users, guess problems & solutions from small # of users Quantitative : Traffic Analysis / User Engagement Track users, usage, conv %'s for empirical sample # of users Comparative : A/B, Multivariate Testing Compare what users do in one scenario vs another Measure which copy/graphics/UI are most effective Competitive : Monitoring & Tracking Competitors Track competitor activity & compare against yours (if possible) Compare channels, keyword traffic, demographics, user sat, etc.
Passion vs. Precision “ Solve a Problem” = Passion “ Optimize the Solution” = Precision However… “ Precision” is Illusion; “data” is fuzzy Collecting & Interpreting data takes time & effort Keep Metrics Simple & Actionable
AARRR!: 5-Step Startup Metrics Model Website.com R evenue $$$ Biz Dev Ads, Lead Gen, Subscriptions, ECommerce A CQUISITION SEO SEM Apps & Widgets Affiliates Email PR Biz Dev Campaigns, Contests Direct, Tel, TV Social Networks Blogs Domains R etention Emails & Alerts System Events & Time-based Features Blogs, RSS, News Feeds
Startup Metrics for Pirates A cquisition: users come to site from various channels A ctivation: users enjoy 1 st visit: " happy ” experience R etention: users come back , visit site multiple times R eferral: users like product enough to refer others R evenue: users conduct some monetization behavior AARRR !
3 Key Metrics Frameworks: biz model, conversion dashboard, mktg channels Define 1-Page Biz Model : customer segments + desired actions / behaviors Identify critical Conversion Events & Dashboard for each segment & prioritize Test & develop Marketing Channels ; measure Volume (#), Cost ($), Conv (%) Optimize product & marketing using Fast Iteration Cycles & A/B Testing
Q: What’s My Business Model? Can be one of the following: Get Users (= Acquisition, Referral) Drive Usage (= Activation, Retention) Make Money (= Revenue*) * ideally profitable revenue Note: eventually need to turn Users/Usage -> Money
Role: Founder/CEO Q: Which Metrics? Why? A: Focus on Critical Few Actionable Metrics (if you don’t use the metric to make a decision, it’s not actionable) Hypothesize Customer Lifecycle Target ~3-5 Conversion Events (tip: Less = More) Test, Measure, Iterate to Improve
The 1-Page Business Model (Users + Conversions + Priorities) Q1: What types of people use your website? Visitor = Average User / Buyer Contributor = Content Contributor / Seller Distributor = Passionate Fan (unpaid) / Affiliate (paid) Q2: What actions could they take to help you or them ?
TeachStreet Metrics v1: Eye Chart Madness
TeachStreet Metrics v2: Customer Types + Conversion Priorities
TeachStreet 1-Page Business Model: Teachers & Students Teachers Students Activation Claim Profile Add Class Contact Teacher View 3 Pages Retention Visit 1x/mo for 3 mo’s Visit 1x/mo for 3 mo’s Referral Request Review Suggest Teacher
Role: Product / Engineering Q: What Features to Build? Why? A: Easy-to-Find , Fun , Useful , Unique Features that Increase Conversion Wireframes = Conversion Steps Measure, A/B Test, Iterate FAST (daily/weekly) Optimize for Conversion Improvement 80% on existing feature optimization 20% on new feature development
Example Conversion Dashboard (note: *not* actuals… your mileage may vary) Stage Conversion Status Conv. % Est. Value (*not* cost) Acquisition Visitors -> Site/Widget/Landing Page (2+ pages, 10+ sec, 1+ clicks = don’t abandon) 60% $.05 Activation “ Happy” 1 st Visit; Usage/Signup (clicks/time/pages, email/profile reg, feature usage) 15% $.25 Retention Users Come Back; Multiple Visits (1-3x visits/mo; email/feed open rate / CTR) 5% $1 Referral Users Refer Others (cust sat >=8; viral K factor > 1; ) 1% $5 Revenue Users Pay / Generate $$$ (first txn, break-even, target profitability) 2% $10
TeachStreet: Teacher “Claim Rate” ( Seattle , Portland )
TeachStreet: 45-day Claim Rates ( Seattle , Portland )
Design, Optimize for Conversion
Role: Marketing / Sales Q: What channels? Which users? Why? A: High Volume (#), Low Cost ($), High Conv (%) Design & Test Multiple Marketing Channels + Campaigns Select & Focus on Best-Performing Channels & Themes Optimize for conversion to target CTAs, not just site/landing page Match/Drive channel cost to/below revenue potential Low-Hanging Fruit: Blogs SEO/SEM Landing Pages Automated Emails
Example Marketing Channels disclaimer: estimates of vol, cost/user, time & effort are subjective – actual costs are dependent on your specific business
M AARRR keting Plan Marketing Plan = Target Customer Acquisition Channels 3 Important Factors = Volume (#), Cost ($), Conversion (%) Measure conversion to target customer actions Test audience segments, campaign themes, Call-To-Action ( CTA s) [Gradually] Match Channel Costs => Revenue Potential Increase Vol. & Conversion, Decrease Cost, Optimize for Revenue Potential Avg Txn Value ( ATV ), Ann Rev Per User ( ARPU ), Cust Lifetime Value ( CLV ) Design channels that (eventually) cost <20-50% of target ATV, ARPU, CLV Consider Costs, Scarce Resource Tradeoffs Actual $ expenses Marketing time & resources Product/Engineering time & resources Cashflow timing of expense vs. revenue, profit
One Step at a Time. Make a Good Product : Activation & Retention Market the Product : Acquisition & Referral Make Money : Revenue & Profitability “ You probably can’t save your Ass and your Face at the same time… choose carefully .” – DMC
Summary Measure Stuff. Keep It Simple. 5 Steps: Startup Metrics for Pirates ( AARRR !) 3 Items: Biz Model, Conversion, Mktg Channels Iterate & Optimize. One Step at a Time.
