We’re honoured to partner with the extraordinary Productized conference in Lisbon, Portugal. Productized consistently brings together the sharpest product thinkers and builders, and it’s a privilege to record our Talk in Ten series on location for the third year running.
In this short, sharp conversation Lea Samrani (Director of Product Growth, Aperture) explains the Growth Paradox: why adding friction — the right kind — can increase conversions and unlock revenue.
Key topics discussed
- What is positive friction vs negative friction
- How surfacing user intent increases trust and conversion
- Real-world examples across D2C and B2B flows
- When friction helps: onboarding, sales calls, acquisition funnels
- How to test and validate friction without hurting UX
