PM Express #3 is here! 🚀
Today’s topic: AARRR Framework (aka the Pirate Metrics 🏴☠️)
Every product has a user journey — from the moment someone first hears about it, to the moment they become a loyal, returning user.
AARRR breaks this journey into 5 clear stages:
Acquisition — How do users discover your product?
Activation —Do users have a great first experience?
Retention — What keeps users coming back?
Referral — Why would users share your product with others?
Revenue — How does the product sustain and generate income?
