Quick one that reframed how I look at my own product this week. ๐
A sign-up isn't a win โ it's just a stranger trying the door. The real event is whether they walk in and reach the moment your product actually matters. That moment has a name: activation. ๐งฉ
The data is rough: average SaaS activation is ~37.5%, so two of three sign-ups never feel why the product is useful. Miss that first moment and 98% churn within two weeks. And they leave silently โ no complaint, no review. ๐
We pour effort into the sign-up page and almost none into the first session inside. That's the leak.
