3. Virtual Bundling – not your Grandparents‟ bundles!
20th century fixed bundling (e.g. cable TV channels) was
• Comprised of defined inflexible packages
• Not usage based revenue
• Producers had no choice of marketing partners
• Subscribers had no choice of channels
21st century virtual bundling (invented by Kachingle) is
• Real-time flexible packages created uniquely by each subscriber on
demand
• Usage based revenue
• Producers select their marketing partners
• Subscribers effortlessly build-their-own packages

o Cannibalization rate of vendor‟s current premium offering

16. Freemium is not working for all vendors because of…
Fierce Competition
The free version needs to be so extraordinary that there is not enough incentive
for most users to upgrade to Premium
Low Conversion Rates
At ~ 1-2%, Average Revenue Per User (ARPU) is too low for sustainability
High Churn Rates
Low Premium user retention requires a continuous stream of new users
Free Users don’t upgrade to premium version because:
too much trouble to upgrade right at that moment while the user is busy doing real task
too expensive
the premium capabilities they need are not worth the premium price
total cost of all the Premium apps they would use is too expensive
occasional users don‟t want to pay full price
too hard to keep track of multiple subscriptions and credit card charges

17. Freemium Best Practices
• Offer a base-level product people want to rave about. Virality drives
success.
• Prompt user-to-user recruitment with a product that‟s more beneficial when
shared with others.
• Make offering scalable so serving each new user gets incrementally less
expensive.
• Offer a premium-level product that provides meaningful value otherwise
difficult to obtain, realizing that many businesses succeed with only single-
digit free-to-paid conversion rates.
• Commit to ongoing user interaction in order to adapt and improve offerings,
promote usage, inspire evangelism and prompt premium-level purchases.
• Provide users with a reason and easy way to spread the word, recruit new
users and grow your audience into one that advertisers and others are
willing to pay to reach.
Great advice – but is it actually working?

18. What If …
• More of your free users started paying you?
• Other app vendors are promoting your app?
• Your users could easily promote you via social media?
• Your users could upgrade to premium with One Click (no
carts, no forms, no hassle)
• Your user retention rate increased?
Which of these are most important to you?
