A key metric for current SaaS companies is Weekly Active Users. It’s also a dangerous one because the graph we use to represent it, even when it looks up and to the right, can be hiding a growth ticking bomb.
This bomb is the byproduct of how we think and how we try to improve Activation, that stage that goes from Signup to happy loyal user.
In this talk, you will learn a new way to think about Activation:
- What are the users trying to achieve during this period?
- What is blocking them in their journey to happy users?
- How can you solve the blockers without creating bigger problems down the funnel?
- How to measure all of that so you have an accurate depiction of your current activation.
