Why does the trial have to be 14 days? It sounds like you can get the value from your product in 7 days, perhaps less. Free trials are the period you have to convince them to hand over their cash, if that happens within the first minutes of using the software - get it then!
I would not advise offering a free version, they will be a drain on your support resources and you'll end up hating them. Or at least, I did :) - it is a lot easier to deal with an annoying user knowing they are paying your bills.
- curiously 12y agogood point. well, the people that bought seem to make their decision very quick. less than a day sometimes within an hour of testing it out and seeing that it works. I actually don't know why I am allowing 14-days maybe because competitor does the same thing.
- iqonik 12y agoIt seems like you have proven that 24 hours would be more than enough. I would change it to: "For a limited time, use * free for 24 hours", then inside the product, push hard from them to pay, have a countdown somewhere very visible for when their license expires. it sounds annoying but I think it will increase your conversions tenfold.
- curiously 12y agoanother idea was maybe make the data extracted into an image so they can't copy and paste it freely. The spreadsheet would be just images of text.
