Free is not a sale. You have to charge something to claim them as a customer.

  You know what I mean. Even in EDA, having a reference "user", as long as they are using the product, is a major achievement that will be leveraged [to death] with future [paying] customers.

    I am not trying to be pedantic. In my experience there is an enormous difference between having a user and having a paying customer. They may be a user before they are a paying customer, but there is a very significant difference.

      But you don't have to tell that you first customer doesn't pay you ;).
