Why entrepreneurs don’t try it (and why they’re wrong)?

Paid acquisi*on will allow you to test and get to product market fit much faster.

“We focus on product development to reach the Product Market Fit”

How much of the founders *me (aka big money) is spent on growth? With paid acquisi*on, you can start at $5 a day.
“We don’t have a marketing budget”

!It took us 6 days from start to scaling to $10k/month budget with a posi3ve ROI for Curioos. !
“We don’t have either the expertise or time.”

!#1 Get your Analytics right!

C over the user funnel as much as you can…At Curioos, we’ve added to our
Google Analytics setup: !
* The e-commerce module to track conversions.
!* A spreadsheet to track all our
campaigns with url builder (courtesy of @Jolg42 from 20 degrés à l’ombre.
!PS. make sure it’s accurate by excluding
internal traffic.

…as largely as you can.
We’ve added the Demographics and Interest Reports.

Focus on a few main metrics and proxy metrics
At Curioos, our main metric is
revenue. !!
Use proxy metrics if you need. !
Ex: we’re also using bounce rate + time on site + pages / visits as a proxy for
conversion to let us experiment with low volumes (not perfect but better than
nothing).
Good metric
Relevant for your long-term success
Easy to measure & follow on a day-to-day basis

#2 Experiment, experiment, experiment

Choose your experiment channels
We’ve tried: !
Adwords (mainstream) Facebook (mainstream) Twitter (mainstream)
Fancy (vertical) Amazon Art (vertical) Adroll (retargeting)
Good Paid Acquisition Mix
A mainstream channel (Adwords/Facebook/Twitter/…)
A vertical channel to diversify the risk.

$5 to $15/day per experiment Analyze, compare al l the steps of the funnel, from impression to
conversion, and iterate every 3 days.

Don’t make these mistakes (we did )

If you’re doing CPC, optimize for conversion post-click. If you’re doing CPM, optimize for Click-
through-Rate.
Don’t make these mistakes (1/3)
Optimizing for the wrong goal

Don’t make these mistakes (2/3)
Trust esthetics rather than figures
Can you say why? (I can’t)

If the ROI is good, scale as fast as you can (because it may not last forever)

Don’t make these mistakes (3/3)
Capping the budget
