business goals.

Case study: Timehop aims for
virality through content sharing


       • Stage: Virality
       • Model: Mobile app
       • Social network around the past
       • Focused on virality (but not the viral
        coefficient)
The One Metric That Matters:
Content sharing


            • Focused on % of daily active users
            that share content

            • Aiming for 20-30% of daily active users
            to share content


    “All that matters now is virality. Everything else—be it
    press, publicity stunts or something else—is like pushing a
    rock up a mountain: it will never scale. But being viral will.”
    - Jonathan Wegener, co-founder
METRICS ARE
LIKE SQUEEZE
    TOYS
Once, a leader convinced others
in the absence of data.
Now, a leader knows what
questions to ask.
