Pricing challenges in PLG | Kyle Poyar

How to navigate the challenges around pricing and packaging when introducing Product-Led Growth.

👋 Hi, this is Vincent with a big update for Product Pepper — I’m rebranding it the newsletter Growth Machines. As the focus is on using the product for growth and Go-to-Market, the title Product Pepper felt limiting. So new name, new colors, but the same content :) This week with a new episode where I speak with Kyle Poyar on pricing challenges in PLG. Enjoy!



In the second episode of the Growth Machines podcast, I talk with Kyle Poyar, Operating Partner at Openview and writer of the Growth Unhinged newsletter. We talk about what to do when you have a pricing model in place for a sales motion and are considering to introduce PLG.

Pricing and packaging can be an enabler or blocker when thinking about product-led approaches. Kyle talks about the different challenges this can present. He includes suggestions how to gradually introduce the product-led elements and points out common pitfalls to watch out for. At the end, we cover some trends and other observations of what’s happening in the market.
