Our trial-to-paid problem was not a top-of-funnel problem. It was a clarity problem in the first seven days.
New users were reaching the product, but the first session asked them to understand too much before they saw progress.
What we changed:
1. we cut the checklist from nine actions to the three moments that predicted weekly usage
2. the post shows how the team learned that faster progress mattered more than more feature exposure
