Tuple is no longer offering free trials; pain of purchase and pre-qualification put up front
Calls to action, connections, and surveys help identify ideal prospects and leads

6: Refactoring Rails and Shareable Workflows: On today’s episode we discuss Ben’s release of the first video in his Refactoring Rails course, on the benefits of following Rest in Rails applications. He goes over how he produced the video, sent it out and the feedback he got on his initial release. Derrick has been shipping even more this week, and has seen a huge improvement in his workflow by reducing the notifications on GitHub. His team is adjusting to a more efficient way of working instead of push notifications. by The Art of Product
