Quotes from Esther Trapadoux: “But a lot of times, like for mobile app companies, that one session isn't enough time to get to monetization, you need multiple ones." “You don't really look at the quality of that traffic, how long you're able to retain that person, like what actually drove them there, what kind of promo you're running that actually paid off like 3 or 6 or 9 months down the line until you get into an important monetization moment." “Just get started, don't search for perfect... the faster you do the faster you start thinking about what are the inputs that move the needle."
