Any thoughts on my recent post Startup Metrics ? The Startup Metrics post is a good example of what I call “holocognics.” Startup Metrics discusses what a Startup needs to consider before “going live.” A few years ago “venture capital” was a revenue model. You are writing about the essentials of business. That's great.

I love cars--I grew up in SoCal, and my father was really into cars, and didn't have sons. Tara Weingarten: We had no metrics when we started, and even now, we had a big week with 1900 uniques on one day. We basically got venture capital money, without having to give away any of the company. How did you manage that?

What metrics are going to be the key startup metrics and how do we get those metrics without too much cost? What do we need to do to make sure we can survive technical due diligence by investors and partners? What specific technical innovations might make sense? What can we build that might be protectable? Can't find one?

I'm working quite a bit with startups who are leveraging social media, but I'm finding it hard to predict success and metrics. And how can an early stage company think about social media relative to important startup metrics (see [link] )? because I would like KlickFu to remain primarily a SoCal company and success story!

I talked about this in Startup Metrics : Often, what we are trying to do initially is show exactly how these numbers play out. If these numbers work out, then often scaling is more a question of capital. It needs to include what's required to hit the early proof points for the company. You only build what you need to prove that model.

First, let me recommend reading a previous blog, called omg I’m just a startup, I can’t do those fancy metrics. Once you create a small list of these queries, then you can start to formalize the ideas into specific metrics that you track daily. Aggregate metrics. Still metrics about traffic are not leads.
