In this episode, Troy breaks down why video-first demos are perfect for today’s buyers, especially Gen Z and millennials who want quick, engaging content. He shares practical tips for creating demos that spark interest right away, how offering free demo features can drive deeper engagement, and why tracking viewer behavior with analytics is a game-changer.
