Investor Series | What does “traction” even mean anymore?

What signals matter at different stages
What gets over-weighted too early
How investors interpret progress today
Expect nuance, not simple rules.
This is for you if:
You evaluate very early companies
You’ve questioned old benchmarks
You want clearer internal language around traction
