# Success Metrics and Validation Plan

## Team Goals
*Discuss and identify any team goals that you think would be important to tackle*

* create an app that scales easily as the number of users increases
* capitalize on the unique dating situation and get publicity for our project
* have an intuitive design, with ease of use, that is well received by our users  
* create a safe and secure platform for social interaction
* create a product that we would be proud to show people even after college
## Success Metrics
*what are some success metrics that you might use for your product / customers / your team / your cs98?*

* There is a complete user flow in the app. Users can create an account, schedule a date, and then start/cancel that date.
* Users have many options during a video date provided by us (games/questions). (Execution of a nuanced idea)
* At least 100 users signed up, as many video dates as possible 
* Minimizing crashing even after a bunch of people join, and responding to feedback in each new release
* Stretch: Getting mentioned by some online publication


## Validation Plan
*how do you get from goals to success metrics that are validated? this can be user testing, performance metrics, a public demo, etc. this is your implementation plan to gather the above.*

* Get app on AppStore and then send an email out to Dartmouth Campus (Week 6-7?)
* Gather initial feedback by offering $5 Amazon giftcards
* Continue adding features responding to the user feedback 
* Post on (week 10/11?) Zoom Memes for Quaranteens or other remote-related page about our app
* Write an article about remote dating and either publish it on Medium or forward it to millenial publications like VOx, Teen Vogue, etc.
