Description:

A lot of startups choose to defer the "pricing question" because they don't think their product is ready. The common mindset when launching a new product is one of lowering sign-up friction through discounting or making the product free. This not only delays validation of one of the riskier parts of your product, but a lack of strong customer "commitment" can also be detrimental to optimal learning.

In this webcast you will learn:

  • How to set initial pricing for your product
  • How to test and refine that price with your customers
  • Bonus: When and how to use Freemium

This is the second in a three-part webcast series called The Lean Series. In this event, we'll look at how to test one of the trickier aspects of a product - pricing.
