We started in Boulder, Colorado, all the way back in 2007, with just ten companies. That worked well enough, we did another class in 2008 with another 10 companies, and in 2009 we expanded to Boston. Sometimes entrepreneurs ask if we need certain metrics and traction�you don't. Have you shown progress moving forward.

If one entered between 2009-2015 he or she is no doubt in the “hazard” phase where one need to be careful about thinking he know more about the industry than perhaps he do.

We provide traffic analytics, cross-tabulated across demographics, A/B testing to see how an audience is using certain pages, and engagement metrics.
