Spent 6 weeks in an enterprise security review. We failed because we didn't have SSO.

Last month, we finally got a demo with a massive prospect a 500-person company that was exactly our target audience. The demo went perfectly. The VP of Product loved our tool, and the team was ready to sign a $1,500/month contract.

Then, the deal moved to their IT and Security department.

We spent our first three months in beta completely free. The goal was simple: get people through the door, gather feedback, and build word-of-mouth. It worked. We were averaging about 150 new signups a week, and users were exploring every feature freely.

Last Tuesday, we finally introduced our basic subscription plan ($12/mo).
