Choosing the right pricing strategy for your bootstrapped SaaS is critical. Freemium can be alluring, but it's not a pricing strategy – it's actually a marketing strategy. In this video, I'll explain why freemium is so tricky, and why you should almost always avoid it.

Tried freemium to paid too. Failed hardcore. Great video.

Absolutely, freemium is pointless for B2B SaaS.
Pricing is the ultimate validation.
If people are not willing to pay you, you're not solving an urgent and important enough problem.

Was SaaS CTO in a prior life, the CEO had gone wild getting free sign ups and just couldn't understand why they never converted. Nothing we tried had any effect - the uncomfortable truth was we had blown our marketing budget recruiting a throng of freeloaders.

They eventually sold out following a down round.

I'm not sure. what I was thinking about doing a "free" service. But it's sort of access to one small feature of the total idea. But alone has potential value. Is this considered a bad freemium?

One quick and pretty specific question... what if you can get a backlink (say something like "Powered by...") from free users?
