🙂 i like the “magic number” bit…!
so it’s taken two and a half years to cross 5k – wonder how long it will take for the next ‘magic number’…?!!!
any guesses, aneja??!!

Hi Asha,
Wow! That is a very Smart question. I know you know the whole industry is trying to crack the code on this one:) There are Complex statistical models top level analysts are working to accurately predict viral growth.
I think this could be a great Contest for Rodinhooders. “Predict and Win! (Should be supported by actual data). We have a lot of young and Smart people in the community who I am sure can crack the code.
My prediction is 10,277 people in 10 Months. Below is how I approached.
Its by no means the most accurate way to estimate. There is a “compounding” factor that is hard to calculate. So It is directional and intended to trigger a RACE to solve this one:)
I think I provided more details than u asked Asha:). But the moral of the story is this is how every Entrepreneur should look at his business.

i bow thee (again!)
this is AWESOME! and you are so right – THIS IS EXACTLY HOW EVERYONE SHOULD LOOK AT THEIR BUSINESS. thank you for this unexpected lesson!!!
hey aneja… pls post your comment in JUST FOR FUN.
a) the lesson will reach everyone.
b) the winner of the closest prediction will win a Rodinhood Laptop Skin!!!
(i’ll announce that in the comments and add an editorial note for you to make it official!!!!!)
stay unpredictable 🙂
