Hi Stefan, amazing stats! Quick question, what is the pricing logic behind monthly and annual deals? 12*$99=$1188 and you mentioned that you sold an annual deal for $2000. Thanks :)

@igor_stankovic Nah, I didn't wanna go with Appsumo or Pitchground. They reached me, but that model is not for Automatio. First they take a big cut, second thing u need to wait for months to get the money. People can get refund I think 2-3 months after. Automatio takes a lot of resources to run, so I can't really give life time deal. I could give instead life time discount.

@igor_stankovic Hi Igor, thanks for the words and for the question. The early adopter program or annual deal gives you almost 3x times more credits (450 credits/month) then monthly which is 135 credits/month. Also 50% life-time discount. So no matter what the price of Automatio will be in the future, the EA users of $2k package will have always 50% off. Here you can see the EA page https://automatio.co/early-access. And here you can see the stats only for the early adopters subscribers.

@stefan_smiljkovic thanks for sharing! It makes sense. Did you tried to acquire users with other early adopter channels like Appsumo?

Your traffic is on the increase. Are you paying for ads or it's mostly organic?

@bogdan_popadic Mostly organic, but I am experimenting with Quora ads recently.
