Word-of-mouth engine

LTD buyers love sharing deals. They promote your product in communities.

Quick Start Guide

Get started in 5 steps

01

Decide if an LTD is right for your stage

Best for early-stage products that need users and feedback. Calculate if the economics work for your margins.

02

Apply to LTD platforms

AppSumo is the largest. Also consider SaaSZilla, Dealify, PitchGround, and Lifetimo.

03

Create an irresistible offer

Bundle features that feel generous. Tier the deal (1 code, 3 codes, 5 codes) to increase average order value.

04

Prepare for the support surge

LTD buyers will test everything. Have docs, videos, and support capacity ready.

05

Convert LTD users to advocates

Ask for reviews, testimonials, and referrals. Happy LTD users become your loudest promoters.
