One finding from some recent customer interview synthesis was that a large proportion of the group had first heard about our Plus plan through one of our own social media posts.

For others, seeing it mentioned on our Instagram or Twitter accounts was what gave them the nudge to finally give the free trial a go.
 

We want to strike up a good balance of content and make sure people following along don't mistakenly think you have to pay to get the most out of StoryGraph, but our last posts and tweets focused solely on Plus were months ago and it's the success of our paid plan that'll allow us to survive independently years into the future!

So...I think it's time we spoke about it some more! Maybe we should host some giveaways to kick off proceedings. 😌

Fun fact: Across the last 30 days, 22% of people who took out a free trial have converted! That's pretty good, right? 😁
 

Instead, the last two weeks were filled with bug fixes, accessibility improvements, and exploring a book pane redesign. 

All of these have cropped up as prerequisites of the features we wanted to work on!

With software, it often turns out this way. 😅
 

The most exciting thing is that we should have hit a new user signup milestone by the time the next issue is out... 👀
 

I finished Toni Morrison's Sula last night! What a read!
 

Have a great week,

Nadia
