35% SaaS Product Adoption Growth
Strategic GTM & Usage-Based Onboarding
Drove a 35% uplift in SaaS product adoption through strategic go-to-market rollout and implementation of usage-based onboarding, resulting in over 1,000 B2B customers/users engaging with the platform.
The Challenge
The product had strong functionality but new features were experiencing low adoption rates among existing customers. Many users signed up but failed to activate or engage with core features. The traditional onboarding approach was generic and didn't drive users to experience value quickly.
Approach & Methodology
- Conducted user research to identify activation barriers and moments of value discovery
- Redesigned onboarding flow to focus on usage-based milestones rather than feature tours
- Implemented product analytics reports to track user engagement and identify drop-off points
- Developed targeted email campaigns and in-app messaging to guide users through activation
- Created role-based onboarding paths tailored to different user personas and use cases
- Collaborated with marketing team to align messaging and positioning with value drivers
- Established regular product webinars and training sessions to showcase best practices
