the art of pricing
my friend just started working here. i've been thinking a lot about how subscription based pricing is unoptimal. curious to see how usage-based billing might work for sublime.
This is one of the 🤯🤯🤯 experiments we ran on the Duolingo Retention team : https://t.co/Dv9Wp377vT
Should you go trial or freemium? My takeaways from analyzing 50+ SaaS products:
1. You don't have to choose, you can do both! 90% of freemium products also offer a trial.
2. Go trial if your product needs hand-holding and has a high price-point.
3. Go freemium otherwise.
“WE HAVE TO PAY”
But what if we get to?
Imagine looking at the exchange of money as an alternative way to say things like:
Thank you!
Please keep going.
My life is better with this in it.
A signal of gratitude carries more weight than a forced action

maybe we are at a "failure of imagination" point for most, if not all, consumer subscription services in how they relate to their users (pricing, everything)

The most powerful and interesting media model will remain raising money from members who don’t just permit but insist that the product be given away for free.
