Google Analytics

Launch night: hoping Google Analytics was broken

On launch night Cameo (then PowerMove.io) had one talent, Cassius Marsh, tweet a link to buy a $20 video, and the founders expected a flood. Google Analytics showed only two dots, the founders themselves in Venice and Scottsdale, so they signed off hoping the tracking was broken.

“He sent the tweet on and we were just expecting this flood of people. And we're looking at Google Analytics and there are two dots, one in Venice, one in Scottsdale. You know, at first we're like, maybe Google isn't working. So I literally remember signing off the site. The Scottsdale dot dropped away and then I came back on and, and nope, it's like that dot came back. Google works, it's not us.”
