Struggling with low trial engagement?
Learn how in-app messaging can transform the experience for your B2B SaaS users:
1️⃣ Onboarding: guiding users from the start
❌ Problem: Users drop off because they don’t know where to begin.
✅ Fix: Use in-app welcome messages to guide new users through key onboarding steps, helping them achieve quick wins early in the trial.
2️⃣ Feature discovery: surfacing underutilized features
❌ Problem: Trial users miss out on important features that drive value.
✅ Fix: Trigger contextual messages based on user behavior to highlight specific features, explaining how they solve common pain points.
3️⃣ Milestone celebrations: reinforcing progress
❌ Problem: Users don’t feel motivated to continue engaging.
✅ Fix: Send congratulatory in-app messages when users reach key milestones, such as completing onboarding or achieving their first result.
4️⃣ Proactive support: reducing frustration

✅ Fix: Implement proactive in-app messages that offer assistance when users appear to struggle, linking directly to FAQs or live chat.

✅ Fix: Use data from user actions and profiles to deliver personalized in-app messages that reflect their unique goals and challenges.
6️⃣ Call-to-action: encouraging deeper engagement
