If $350/month seems like too much money, the product isn't for you.

If it seems like a bargain, it is.

To be a business, you have to stay in business. 100 customers at $350/month probably allows that. 7000 at $5/month probably doesn't because it requires 70x conversions, 70x retentions, and 70x the customer service (at least) -- and of course $5/month is trying to compete with free.

Wow. You can just pack that comment up and use it anywhere, huh?

"If it's good for you, that's good. If it's bad to you, it's not for you."

Brilliant.

That’s how market segmentation works.

I can’t afford a Ferrari because Ferrari’s are not for me. The Ferrari salesperson isn’t going to feel bad about that and shouldn’t.

And the best thing you can take away is focus on selling products to people with money to spend and a willingness to spend it…if you are running a business of course.
