S2E8: Launching Our MVP and Converting 85% of Trials

S2E8 Launching Our MVP and Converting 85% of Trials

 

About this episode

Melissa and Todd dive  into the thrilling and nerve-wracking experience of launching eWebinar's MVP.  While  many people see product launches as the end goal and celebratory occasion, Melissa explains why it's often more stressful instead because that's when the dreams you've sold become reality.

They reminisce about getting stuck in a never-ending rabbit hole of features, how frustrated David (CTO) was, and how they ultimately had to choose a launch date just to get the product out the door.  Melissa recounts the fascinating experience of seeing users (webinar attendees) interactive with eWebinar for the first time and the pressure she felt from her startup finally coming to life.

Tune in and learn how Melissa got their first trial users on board, and how they ended up converting 85% of those users at the first billing date.
