PLG is a go-to-market strategy where the product is so good that users try it, fall in love, and upgrade themselves, no sales team required. Slack, Figma, Notion use PLG. You launch free tier, users invite teammates, viral growth accelerates. Mastery takes 4-6 weeks of study + 6 months of execution. PLG is the darling of SaaS. Teams that nail it scale to $100M ARR without a sales team. Skills: understanding freemium design, onboarding psychology, viral loops, paywall mechanics.

Menene PLG Product-Led Growth

PLG (Product-Led Growth) is a go-to-market strategy where the product itself drives acquisition and conversion. Instead of a sales team calling prospects, users sign up, try the product, love it, and upgrade. Examples: Slack (free tier lets anyone try), Figma (web-based collaboration attracts designers), Notion (freemium with viral sharing). Core mechanics: (1) Free tier removes friction, anyone can sign up in <1 min. (2) Onboarding is fast (show value in <5 min). (3) Viral loops, users invite teammates, team invites more. (4) Paywall, core features free, advanced behind paywall. (5) Self-serve upgrade, user clicks upgrade button, no salesperson needed.

What's the difference between PLG and freemium?
Freemium = free tier exists. PLG = free tier is the *primary* acquisition channel and full product experience is self-serve. You can have freemium without PLG (user buys from sales team), or PLG without freemium (free trial + viral loop). PLG is a philosophy; freemium is a tactic.
How do I know if my product is suited for PLG?
Ask: (1) Is trial/onboarding <5 min? (2) Can users see value alone? (3) Does sharing/collaboration create network effects? (4) Does usage grow with team size (5 users costs 5x more than 1)? If yes to all 3, PLG can work. If no, consider hybrid (free tier + sales team for enterprise).
What's the magic number for viral coefficient?
Viral coefficient = average invites sent per user × conversion rate of invites. Coefficient >1 = exponential growth (each user brings >1 new user). <1 = needs top-of-funnel ads. Coefficient 1.5-2 = hypergrowth. Most products aim for 0.3-0.5 and rely on paid + viral.
Should I gate features behind paywall?
Gate the *right* features. Let users play with full product for free (build habit). Gate advanced stuff (unlimited projects, priority support, integrations). If you gate core features too early, users churn before seeing value.
How do I measure PLG success?
Track: (1) Free signup rate, (2) Time to first value (minutes to see benefit), (3) Weekly active users in free tier, (4) Conversion rate (free to paid), (5) Viral coefficient (invites), (6) LTV/CAC (lifetime value vs. cost). A healthy PLG product has <5 min time-to-value, >20% conversion, >0.5 viral.
