When it comes to choosing a pricing model for a product or service in the B2B space, determining the ideal is a struggle for many companies.
Firstly, what’s on offer needs to be coherent and match the expectations of the ideal customer. This means offering something that solves a clear need.
Secondly, companies also need to be careful to not undersell the value of their product or service, so competitive pricing is incredibly important.
But regardless of the price of the product or service, one of the most difficult hurdles to overcome is getting people to purchase and start using the product.
As a result, many companies have (and successfully) adopted the so-called “freemium” business model (you might have guessed it, the word “freemium” is a combination of “free” and “premium”). Popular sites like Spotify, LinkedIn or even online newspapers Best B2B Sales Leads Database have all adopted this pricing strategy, whereby users can sign up for a free account and later on upgrade to a paid (or “premium”) plan to unlock more features and functionalities.
But this pricing model has not only been adopted by B2C companies, many B2B businesses also use free plans to generate new leads. Let’s take a look at how this works.
What are the benefits of providing freemium products?
You might be thinking: “How on earth do companies make any money by giving away their products and services for free?” Well, this great quote by Phil Libin, CEO of Evernote, highlights the point of freemium products and services:
The easiest way to get 1 million people paying is to get 1 billion people using".
The goal of the freemium model is to lower customer acquisition costs (CAC). By providing a free version of your product, you eliminate any barriers to entry. If people want to buy it, all they need to do now is provide their payment details (you’ll already have their name and email address).
You can also use the data from your free users' behaviour to work out what features of your product are working well and which aren't. You can go even further and break down your user base by market segments (or buyer personas) to see who gets the most out of it.
Another advantage of the freemium model is its ability to build trust. When it comes to investing in large software-as-a-service (SaaS) or technology platforms, your prospects will want to see how and if the product works for them before making a decision.
Going freemium might sound like a no-brainer, but before you decide this acquisition model is the right one for your business, you should also assess the other side of the coin.
