Who’s this guy Alexey?! 
Applied Math, Cybernetics Faculty, Taras Shevchenko Kyiv National University

co-founder at Contactis 
co-founder & CEO at YouScan, LeadScanr

Why metrics 
1. Measure success 
2. Develop your product 
? 3. Know your runway 
4. Talk to investors
What to measure 
Type of metric 
Qualitative 
Quantitative 
Stage 
Pre-product/market fit 
Customer feedback 
Customer surveys 
Scale and expansion 
MRR, Churn, LTV, 
CAC
Pirate metrics
AARRR framework
Before product/market fit
What exactly is Activation? 
• First time when user gets real value from your product 
• Depends on your product and usage scenario 
• Can happen really soon after the registration (simpler 
products) or weeks later (complex products). Examples: 
- User buys 5 leads (LeadScanner.ru) - same day after the registration 
- User enters a lot of financial data and creates his first report (some online 
accounting tool) - weeks after the registration
x 5 times = 
Activation
Bad metrics & good metrics 
Do not focus on vanity metrics: 
Pageviews 
Time on site 
Visits 
Followers 
Number of downloads..
Good (actionable) metrics 
Funnels 
A/B tests 
Cohort reports 
Per-unit metrics 
Linked to people

Your main equation: CAC < LTV 
CAC: Customer Acquisition Cost 
LTV: Lifetime Value
An out of balance business model 
Image by David Skok
A well balanced business model
Example for SaaS business model 
CAC = $ 1,200 
ARPU = $ 400 / month 
Months to recover CAC: 3 
LTV = $ 8,000
