FOUR ACTIONABLE TAKEAWAYS

  • Grow your existing pipeline 50% by asking for referrals.
  • Use these 3 common PLG (product-led growth) triggers to engage freemium users: sign-ups, increased usages, and multiple users on one account.
  • Don’t immediately sell your roadmap. Instead, find customers who are 80% aligned with the vision and use the roadmap to bridge the 20%.
  • If you’re selling early-stage, focus on the early adopters / innovative buyers.
