Stats were horrible, and happy to share them (vanity metrics, and not):
8,000 Registered Users (Growth was horrible)
+1M people in our database total (after importing friends/connections)
Peak Engagement:
30% MAU
10% WAU
Around 0.5% DAU (I think, this last one I'm less sure about)
Our SXSW Service was the most successful, but still not good enough
:
Signed up 3% of conference goers (As much as Glancee, Highlight signed up 5% of SXSW)
25% of our SXSW users logged in 3 or more times
20% of our users reached out to their matches.
I'll keep thinking through what other stats I can share.
- hashtree 14y agoI am absolutely enthralled with genuine analysis and numbers. All too often when talking with startup founders, you get this fake show of "everything is great" or them trying to sell you. Makes attempts at genuine discussion hard. It is interesting where you get some of these genuine reflections and numbers. You see them a lot on post mortems, but every now and then you will hit up a meetup or conference where it happens. Example: Attended the conference of world affairs at CU Boulder last year. It was the end of the day in a relatively empty auditorium. Both Tom Preston-Werner and Eric Wilhelm were giving some great insight into early business operations successes/failures.
- filvdg 14y agoPhilco , thanx for the info, I am 3 years after I had to close down shop of my startup, and my biggest regret now looking back is not to have stopped sooner ... its a very difficult decision to let go of something that you have invested so much time/effort/money in ... good luck , this experience will help you a lot for the next projects
