Andres Glusman, our CEO, was a guest on the Metrics & Chill podcast from our friends at Databox.

The show is brilliantly produced and hosted by Jeremiah Rizzo, a marketing and brand leader.

It has never been easier to ship products, and never been harder to ship the right products.

What to take from it

  • Decide in advance whether a number will make the decision or inform it. Teams that skip this argue about the data instead of the choice.
  • Being data-driven on a weak signal is worse than being data-informed on a strong one.
  • The bottleneck moved. Building is cheap now, so knowing what to build is where the cost sits.
