There are plenty of variations on the freemium to premium model in the tech world. For some you’ll get to try out the product or service for free, but with limited capabilities, while with others you can use the full package, but only for a limited time. Your conversion rate will depend on how many customers decide to opt into paid plans. In our conversation, we explore the different options out there, how to determine whether you’re hitting good conversion rates from free to paid, and what you can do to boost yours. Join us for key insights and actionable advice on free-to-paid conversion rates and how to go from freemium to premium!
