You're probably running someone else's playbook.

PLG tactics on an enterprise product
Seat-based pricing on a usage product
Activation metrics that measure the wrong thing

Where does your product actually sit?

PLG Self-Serve Tool Enterprise Workflow

Most teams apply tactics from the wrong end of the spectrum — because they've never formally classified their product type.

The red dot represents where most teams think they are.
The classification exercise reveals where they actually are.

The typical cost of a misaligned growth playbook — wrong experiments, wrong metrics, wrong hires before anyone stops to ask if the strategy was right for this product type.

03 / 15
productquant.dev

SaaS is not one category.

PLG Self-Serve Tool
Users sign up, activate, and expand without a sales team. Value is immediate and individual.
Workflow Automation
Replaces repetitive processes. Stickiness comes from integration depth, not feature novelty.
Infrastructure / API
Developer-led adoption. Usage-based economics. Retention is structural, not behavioural.
Marketplace
Two-sided supply-demand dynamics. Growth and retention logic is entirely different.
Enterprise Workflow
Multi-stakeholder sale. Long onboarding. Value is measured in months, not minutes.
Which is yours?
Most products blend 2–3 types — and the dominant type determines the right playbook.

Activation Pattern

Instant Activation
User achieves core value within minutes of signing up. No setup required. Typical in lightweight PLG tools.
Setup-Required
Value unlocks after configuration — integrations, data import, workspace setup. Typical in workflow tools.
Habit-Build
Value compounds over repeated use. First session is low-value; week 3 is high-value. Typical in analytics tools.
Team-Dependent
Individual activation is meaningless. Value requires team adoption. Typical in collaboration and enterprise tools.
Most products are trying to optimise for the wrong activation pattern — because nobody ever asked which one applies.

You know your product.

Classifying it strategically is different.

What you know
Your features, your users, your roadmap, your NPS score, your churn rate.
What classification adds
Which growth motions to use, which metrics actually matter, which pricing model fits your expansion economics.
Why it matters
The right tactics for a PLG tool will actively destroy an enterprise workflow product — and vice versa.

2 hours per day.
5 days.

Or do it in one weekend.

Most teams complete it in a single afternoon once they have the guide.

The bottleneck is never the time. It's having a structured framework that tells you exactly what to look at — and in what order.
