Pivot Or Persevere Tracker For The Weekly Lean Startup Decision

One link runs the pivot or persevere tracker — data signals on the scoreboard (revenue, retention, NPS), vote on the poll, decision logged on the checklist.

The lean startup methodology says: every week, the founding team has to call pivot or persevere. The trouble is, most teams either skip the call (and persevere by default until they die) or call it on vibes (and pivot every 6 weeks until the team breaks). This pivot or persevere tracker combo wapin makes the weekly call disciplined: a scoreboard with the actual data signals (weekly revenue, customer retention, NPS, top problem from interviews), a poll where every co-founder votes pivot / persevere / zoom-in / zoom-out / kill, and a checklist that logs the decision and the experiment for the next week. As a pivot or persevere tracker it works because every co-founder sees the same numbers on the same link — the call is made on data, not on the loudest founder's mood. Run the pivot or persevere tracker every Monday at 5pm and the pivot or persevere tracker will be the document that shows the trajectory of the company across 2 years.
