44. Lean Startup and Metrics
Qualitative and quantitative metrics.
• Qualitative metrics are unstructured, anecdotal, revealing, and hard to
aggregate;
• quantitative metrics involve numbers and statistics, and provide hard
numbers but less insight.
Vanity and actionable metrics
• Vanity metrics make you and your investors) feel good, but don’t change
how you’ll act.
• Actionable metrics change your behavior by helping you pick a course of
action.
Exploratory metrics and reporting metrics
• Exploratory metrics are speculative, and try to find unknown insights that can
give you the upper hand,
• focusing on the interesting and unexpected and on trying new things,
• while reporting metrics keep you abreast of the!normal, managerial, day to
day operations.
46. ”A startup is a human institution
designed to create a new product
or service under conditions of
extreme uncertainty”
- Eric Ries -

2. Is there a visionary startup founder in
you?
3. Is your # 1 goal to build a product or
launch a business model for a vision?

are you just there to do a task?
53. 1) that you really understand what your
customer wants,
2) have a discipline for finding it out, and
3) that you don’t start building a core
product until you’ve tested your business
model (hypothetical or real)
