the only times i've ever seen retention meaningfully move was with the introducton of a social feature. when retention is baked so deeply into the core product the only way to move retention is to change from the core experience as the product to the userbase as the product
The frustrating thing about working in consumer is that you're always 1 a/b test away from massively improving any metric (except for retention)View quoted post on X

Don't Build Alone
As a @speedrun partner, some of my favorite conversations with founders starts with: “here's a thing i'm stuck on...”
Maybe that thing is pricing. Maybe a promising customer has gone quiet. Maybe the founders are hiring their first salesperson and trying to figure out what good looks like.
Working these things through with founders is one of my favorite things about this job.
At Speedrun, we want to be your earliest backers and work alongside you through those decisions. You get our time, our attention, and a team of world class operators who can help you work through what’s blocking you.
Building something great is hard - don't feel like you have to do it alone. Let us work with and support you on the journey ahead.
