If something is worth improving it&#8217;s worth trying to find a way to measure it.  In a startup you need to be conscious of how you allocate resources.  My suggestion is that you determine a few goals for your team, determine what stats measure progress toward those goals, then build the tools to monitor your progress.  Get the whole team involved to create a common sense of progress and get everyone thinking about this common goal.</p>
