     with a number?                        • “per week” [ ___/wk ]               * not required, but super-helpful
     • “number of...” [ # ]                • “per month” [ ___/mo]            • “per user” [ ___/user]
     • “average number of...” [avg ]                                          • “per user per week” (fancy!)

         ...measures the usage of your product by a                  ...makes you look at all the other metrics
         person. The usage should be specific to                      and say “none of those other numbers
         features that deliver value to your user.                   matter if we donʼt get this right first.”
