Matt and I spend a lot of time focusing on data.
Every Monday morning, for example, we bring you hundreds of data points on new start-up deals from around the web...
And if you’re a CrowdabilityIQ subscriber, you know that we crunch thousands of individual data points for each deal.
We conduct this intense analysis because it gives you deep insights into the private markets—and because it provides you with opportunities to make money.
But we also analyze data that you never get to see…
Most Valuable Headlines
For example, take the e-mails we send you each week…
For each email, we analyze how many people open it, and calculate how many people click on each of the links inside.
This helps us understand what topics you and our other readers find most valuable.
So, as we start to wrap up 2015, we’ve been analyzing data from the several million e-mails we’ve sent out over the past twelve months…
And what you’ll find below is a list of the most popular—and the most valuable—articles that we published this year.
If you’re a recent subscriber, this list will give you a quick, easy way to get up to speed on the private stock market…
And if you’re a long-time reader, it will provide you with a fun year-end “refresher.”
We hope you enjoy it!
