He shares how his team raised yearly prices by 50% in the US and Germany with minimal conversion drop, how they tested free trial lengths and found almost no difference between three-day and seven-day trials, and why the ratio between monthly and yearly plan prices matters more than the absolute price point.What you'll learn:- How to use seven-day cancellation rates to project 13-month revenue- Why Apple's exchange-rate-only pricing leaves money on the table- How to sequence price tests: price first, then packaging, then paywall design- Why the monthly-to-yearly price ratio drives plan share more than absolute price- How hiding the monthly plan pushed yearly share from 60% to 80%- Why free trials still matter for new users, despite advice to remove them- How three-day trials performed as well as seven-day trials at Mojo- Why your first price test should have big price gaps, not small ones- How traffic source mix can distort price test results- Why a 100% price increase was a short-term winner but long-term loserKey Takeaways:- Seven-day cancellation rate is a reliable early signal. 20-30% of cancellations happen in the first seven to ten days. Measure that rate per variant, project renewal rates from it, and you can evaluate a price test without waiting months. Mojo validated this against real data and it held.- Apple's regional pricing is just exchange rate math. No purchasing power, no local context. Look at your top five markets individually, compare conversion funnels by country, and cross-reference competitor pricing.- Pricing and packaging beat...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/zQmNoGN5MuGeMOqTvMb2DuPbwhjQUVEJ-q54eTGsg0c/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS8zMDkx/MTljNmYxN2FkNGFm/NDIwOWMyNzU0MmQ1/M2ZjZC5wbmc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
