Goal:“The best thing to measure the growth rate of is revenue. The next best, for startups that aren't charging initially, is active users.”
KPI:“A good growth rate during YC is 5-7% a week. If you can hit 10% a week you're doing exceptionally well. If you can only manage 1%, it's a sign you haven't yet figured out what you're doing.”
