● Focus the team around it (put it on screen!)
● Optimize the hell out of it
● Pick a new metric as biz grows and changes
Case Study - Wooboard OMTM

         PHASE               METRIC TYPE              METRIC

Is there a problem?        User Interest      Company sign ups

Do we have a solution?     Engagement         Woos per user

Is there a market?         Revenue            % of premium
                                              conversions

This is a classic SaaS OMTM progression. See also Backupify.

 ●   Phase 1 - site visits
 ●   Phase 2 - trials
 ●   Phase 3 - monthly recurring revenue


      Takeaway - Pick an OMTM (or at least get data focused)

Analytics is this: by knowing the
kind of business you are, and the
stage you are at, you can track and
optimize the One Metric that
Matters to your startup right now."

                                                     - Shoot for $.50 to $.75
                       Monthly churn                 - make sure CAC is less than

                       - < 2% for scale
                                                     Conversion
                       Growth                        - free to aid - 2%
                       - increase customer revenue   - In app purchases - 1.5%
                       by 20% a year
