Free Trial Strategies

The concept of a free trial is not new in software.

When SaaS products became popular,
it was a given that you'd be allowed to try them for a month.

The idea was that you’d forget to cancel.

If you were smart, you’d cancel right away.
People are smart with their money.

Companies caught on.

An internal technical leader probably said:
“It would be easy to end the trial if someone cancels right after signing up.”

Now everyone's doing it.

Annoying.
But effective.

It’s probably making companies 10x–100x more revenue.

That’s the value of someone who understands both sides of the business.
They spot simple changes that unlock massive results.
