When to use traction proof
Use when you need to convince early stakeholders that demand exists before building full features.
A practical example of traction proof
For example, a startup captures a CSV of 120 email addresses collected during a landing‑page pre‑launch campaign, each entry stamped with the sign‑up date.
How it applies to Ideoreto
Use this reference when preparing a project introduction or explaining your work on Ideoreto. Registration does not guarantee work, collaborators or funding.
Key takeaways
- Confirm the file lists individual user identifiers with dates.
- Verify that each entry records the exact interaction type (e.g., sign‑up, download).
