Should I launch my product on AppSumo? What has been your experience with AppSumo for gaining traction and growing your user base?

YES - but at the right time. @savian_boroanca can share more here, he launched Sessions on Appsuma and made $2 million in sales.

@elena_opreag, you are right, it's YES. You have to approach it the right way and you have to be careful how things evolve from that. It can backfire, but it can also help you find product-market fit. One more thing, money is not the right reason to do it. But we can discuss more about it, maybe you can host a webinar and invite a panel of people willing to share their stories. 🤩

@elena_opreag I am happy to join. We can discuss how to do it. I can also moderate it and technically set it up.

YES - if it's the right fit for your product. Timing + deal structure are key. Make sure your onboarding is super smooth to handle the flood of new users. Provide awesome support to turn them into long-term fans. Appsumo can jumpstart your growth but you gotta retain those users!

@jessicalaurendavis What would make the users to upgrade? Excluding new features from their package ?

YES - AppSumo can be a great channel, but timing is key. I launched on AppSumo last year and did over $1M in revenue. Happy to share more tips if anyone's interested!
