Episode notes
Swap Trials For Weekly Plans
- Test a weekly paid plan instead of a long trial to boost conversions for one-time-use apps.
- Switch paywall structure and pricing if trial-to-paid conversions remain low.
Kickstart With Lifetime Promo
- Use Indie App Santa or AppAdvice lifetime promos to kickstart downloads and ratings without ad spend.
- Price lifetime offers low (or free) briefly to generate guaranteed installs and reviews.
Build Custom Long Paywalls
- Build custom multi-page paywalls in-app rather than relying solely on third-party builders.
- Use developers to craft tailored paywall flows for better conversion testing.
