Hey I am on Medialย โ€ขย 4m

Avoiding a free trial can protect your appโ€™s perceived value, reduce churn, and optimize resource allocationโ€”especially if youโ€™re not ready to niche down or market aggressively. Instead, consider a paid-first model with a strong value proposition or a freemium approach tailored to your audience. Ernestoโ€™s provocative list challenges conventional wisdom, and the data backs up his skepticism: free trials can fail if theyโ€™re not executed with precision. What do you thinkโ€”does your app have the marketing muscle to make trials work, or should you pivot to a different strategy? Iโ€™m curious to hear your take!

This can save you from losing free trials and help them convert into paid. I am currently working on a saas that can help saas owners automatically nudge inactive trials and help them convert into paid users.
