Packaging and Pricing 🌀
We’re still unsure the best ways to package our integrations + workflows while pricing them.? We’re following other API companies logic here. Is there any material or people you know who are pricing wizards?
Product Onboarding Time 🐶:
We’re finding that our onboarding time for customers is taking longer than necessary , around 2 weeks at a time. We’re trying to minimize this to 2 hours for self-service and 5 days for enterprises. Do you know any individuals who focus on Onboarding?
