Hinweis der Redaktion
- It’s a go-to-market strategy that focuses on growing the business based on the customer’s experience with the product. Marketers take advantage of this approach to acquire, activate and retain customers. (AAR) To create a seamless product’s experience, marketers need to make sure they give their customers all the needed resources and materials.
- This flywheel shows the 4 main steps and the key actions that customers need to take to move to the next stage (Activate – Adopt - Adore - Advocate). The Product-Led Growth Flywheel is a framework for growing your business by investing in a product-led user experience. In this framework, the experience is designed to generate higher user satisfaction and increased advocacy, which in turn drives compounding growth of new user acquisition.
- The marketing team asks: “How can we create a demand using our product?” The sales team asks: “How can we use our product to qualify prospects? The success team asks: “How can we build a product that makes our customers become successful without our assistance? The product-led development team asks: “How can we invent a product with a quick time-to-value?”
- CAC = Marketing + Sales expenses / total # of customers
- NPS is calculated by determining how many promoters you have vs. how many detractors.
- It’s not only about how the product solves your customers problems but also about the holistic experience that you provide to them from the moment your brand promise through the entire customer experience.
- To do this, emphasize on the onboarding experience around the key features within your product related to activation.
- This can be done through interviews and session recordings to determine the customer behavior that would lead to conversion and retention.
- Product adoption rate determines the % of active clients whereas feature adoption rate helps you determine why customers continue to engage with your product. (product support, social, email, all-in-one, onboarding, courses, etc…) By calculating FAR of a new feature, you will be able to find out the stimulant that boosts the overall product adoption rate.
- It’s not only easier to get money from satisfied and paying customers than it’s to acquire new ones but also it’s 2X cheaper to upsell to an existing client than to acquire a new one and 3X cheaper to generate expansion revenue than the CAC of a new customer. Also called expansion monthly recurring revenue (MRR), this metric measures the revenue generated from existing customers through upsells, add-ons, and cross-sells.
- It’s the amount of money on average that you can expect to make from an individual user. It’s a high-level indicator of business health to compare SaaS companies.
- It’s the amount of money on average that you can expect to make from an individual user. It’s a high-level indicator of business health to compare SaaS companies. It’s used to identify valuable customer segments.
- The (k) coefficient measures the number of new users that each existing customer or referrer can successfully convert. In order for virality to exist, k must be greater than 1. For that to happen, users must be able to promote the product by using it. Take Zoom, for example. By sending a Zoom video conference link to attendees who don’t already use the tool, existing users promote the product in the context of its use.
- A product with a network effect, on the other hand, becomes more valuable to users as more people adopt the product. Think of an app like Instagram or a two-sided marketplace like Airbnb: The more people post photos on a regular basis or list their homes for rent, the better the product experience becomes for other users in the long run. These products have network effects Both virality and network effects are closely associated with the advocacy stage of the Product-Led Growth Flywheel. By inviting other users to evaluate and adopt your product, your customers help increase new acquisition.
- Survey Monkey You send the survey to your customer base. Some of them might have used SurveyMonkey before, some of them might not have. Some of them might not have even heard of SurveyMonkey. Regardless, your customers are helpful and have feedback to share, so they all click on the link you sent them and take the survey. They see that the survey is “Powered by SurveyMonkey.” Now they’ve been exposed to the brand.
- Calendly Another inherently viral product, Calendly employs a product-led growth strategy similar to SurveyMonkey. Calendly is already set up to be a product-led growth company. But what makes it viral? Calendly can’t exist with just one user. A single user (let’s call her Martha) can’t do anything on her own with Calendly. But when Martha sends her Calendly link to someone else and they schedule a meeting with her, both parties receive value. The inherently collaborative nature of this product creates a “viral loop of value.” Every time Martha sends someone her Calendly link, she is both using and promoting the product.
- Slack Unlike SurveyMonkey and Calendly, everyone’s favorite chat tool relies on a slightly different model of product-led growth. Calendly and SurveyMonkey are designed for users to collaborate outside of their teams and organizations. The value of Slack lies in allowing users to reach everyone in their organization in one place. As more people in an organization begin using Slack, the more value everyone receives (It has never been easier to reach everyone you need, even across functions). This is called the network effect. The network effect enables products like Slack to expand rapidly once they enter an organization.
- Dropbox Dropbox fills its user needs (easy file storage and sharing) with a simple, easy-to-use product and backs it up with features that encourage even more collaboration and sharing. Let’s go back to Martha again. This time, Martha has a file she needs to share with a teammate (or even with someone outside of her organization). She uploads it to Dropbox and sends the link to her (non)teammate. They open the link. Ta-da! They are now a Dropbox use
- Zoom By sending a Zoom video conference link to attendees who don’t already use the tool, existing users promote the product in the context of its use. That’s also another example of Virality
