    [This episode originally aired October 14th, 2019]

    Can remote companies find success?

    If you don’t already know, Hiten has founded several successful remote companies and is a strong proponent of the model. I’m still a bit skeptical. But the way Hiten talks about how he builds a remote team did a lot to alleviate my doubts.

  • Revisiting Freemium: it's about acquisition, not revenue

    In this week’s episode, Hiten and Patrick talk about something they both have a lot of experience with: freemium product strategy. With more startups looking into this model every day, they think it’s important to discuss the inherent tradeoffs of using freemium for your business. While both Hiten and Patrick are big proponents of freemium, it’s definitely not the easiest business model to work with if you don’t understand how to make it work.

    During this conversation, Hiten and Patrick walk through how freemium acts as an acquisition strategy as opposed to a revenue driver, how product teams need to think about things differently, and why it’s important to understand customer psychology when building your own freemium product to make everything work together.
