Do regular retros on every experiment you ship. Have a step-by-step analytical process. Look at results by segment, by cohort, by user behavior. Truly understand ๐๐ต๐ it worked or didn't. That's where the next hypothesis lives.

New episode dropping soon ๐
I was boarding a flight from Terminal 3 Delhi airport yesterday, and started looking at the billboard advertisements.
Couldnโt help but notice that whenever there was a QR code or number included, it was always from a brand that I did not know much about.
All the bigger, known and perhaps more premium brands did not have a QR code or a clear redirection.
I wonder why? Is it because smaller brands are more disciplined (or have to be) about measurement and attribution and bigger brands dont care?
