My SaaS finally made a sale

1•aashir-saas•1h ago
We made $65.33 from a sale. I know this isnt life changing amount but at least im happy we finally reached this milestone..

We recently made changes to our pricing and structure. This is what we think finally ticked over a user to convert:

- Our LinkedIn lead agent prior to the change was only one time preview (on trials only) and that very agent also happened to be the star of the show. Restricting users to one time preview on your best agent wasnt the smartest decision in hindsight.

- We added card required trials so that window shoppers are filtered out and only warm leads come through. This change made room for us to provide full feature access to all the new trialing users without any limitations

Now our plan is to keep this user into the loop, keep feedback at the center of development and obv acquire new customers

What was your first sale like?
