Freemium’s a great way to acquire lots of customers relatively quickly and easily, but the job of converting them to using a paid product is where the rubber meets the road. And the challenge is a lot harder in an enterprise context, where the buyer and the user aren’t necessarily one and the same person. Many businesses struggle to strike a balance between freemium’s light-touch customer engagement with the more involved enterprise sales process.

In the not-too-distant past, customer support was seen as a hassle, a cost that had to be borne but which was really just a tax on success. If it wasn’t for those pesky customers with problems, profits would be through the roof, right? There is no escaping the fact that supporting your customers costs money. But with customers expecting faster and more personalized experiences, providing great conversational customer support is no longer optional – it’s essential to business survival. “Sup

I talk with lots of executives from the go-to-market side of the house who think that building serious software is as easy – and easily estimatable – as building a fence. Would that it were so. One destructive side effect of this misunderstanding can be repeatedly changing the #1 top priority part-way through development, before there’s much to show the world but after spending significant discovery/design/architecture/development time on the previous #1 top priority.

It all started a decade ago on a family trip from the US to India. En route, I had a two-day halt at a relative’s house in Abu Dhabi. It was a weekend and I woke up to a lazy Sunday morning. We still had to make the trip to India later in the day. To my surprise, I found everyone in the house busy and getting ready for a day at work. I was unaware until then that the weekend in the Emirates is on Friday and Saturday.

Everyone feels the pressure right now. Many managers feel pressure to deliver more and better products and services. That pressure rolls downhill to the people doing the work.
