Plan: Measuring Your Product's Value Moment

Understanding Product Metrics and KPIs

Defining Value for Target Users

  • Product metrics and KPIs should be centered around the value your product delivers to its target users, focusing on the problems it solves.
  • Identify key actions that signify a user is deriving value from the product, which helps in defining relevant metrics.

Example: DocuSign's Value Proposition

  • Using DocuSign as an example, the product offers electronic signature solutions that provide convenience in executing contracts.
  • The convenience offered by DocuSign is not easily quantifiable; thus, identifying key actions like signing a contract becomes essential for measuring value.

Measuring User Actions

  • Each time a user signs a contract on DocuSign, they experience the convenience of executing contracts effectively.
  • The expected natural frequency of this action (signing contracts) could be monthly, reflecting typical business practices. This frequency aids in understanding how often users engage with the product.
