The First Week

Unique Visitors: 535

Subscribers: 31

Response Rate: 5%

At the end of the first week, 535 unique visitors have found the CongressionalRevolution.com website, and 5% of visitors to the website have become subscribers. At this rate, 20,000,000 people will need to visit the website to for the site to have a chance at successfully building a potential list of 1 million small contributors.

Of course this means that the number of visitors per week to the website will need to grow dramatically, exponentially, in fact.

The good news is that The Tipping Point by Malcolm Gladwell confirms that this kind of effort can start to grow quickly from even this small core of initial support because as Mavens -people who collect high quality information- disseminate knowledge about the site to enough important Connectors -people with wide social circles who bring several worlds together- will eventually spread the information to vital Salesman -society's "soft sellers" and trendsetters- who will eventually help the movement to grow quickly.
