Interesting feedback. I think we are way to close to even see that. A font with the bars on the top and bottom of the I would be a better fit. Sales (and by extension pitches) is a necessary reality for all companies. Selling is hard. I a

Yes, your title suggestion would have been more appropriate. It is all about how we reacted to the honest feedback.

We have made a lot of changes so drawing conclusions is difficult. Removing the name/email on the instant demo instantly increased activity there. Moving forward we also introduced a 30 day free trial which will now be our target met

We have used other webinar type sw in the past. For every user of webinar sw you can quickly find a story when a meeting was started late or users (connections) dropped out. Internally (read internal network) it works great but as soon as

Yes, you are probably right. We have gone as far as we can ourselves and our next action would be to bring in a designer to help out. I am only pretending to know about colours.

Ha ha. I think the chain will end here. Besides the max title is 80 chars and the "We did a post about how our post about how our post ..." will fit!

As another commenter mentioned "it's been documented that engagement from reddit/facebook/etc is very low". It is all about the unfiltered feedback and what you do with it.

Yes, we didn't have the room for that type of change before with the extra text heading. We'll have to try that out as well... it would be more obvious for sure.

Very true. Just a note that the play button is actually just for the video. The larger green button below it is for the instant demo.

Thanks. The form is very slick so just using it to collect the information is not half bad.

Does this allow you to change the price dynamically though? For example, if the user selects Canada for their billing address I must then add the appropriate taxes to the price dynamically. Doesn't seem like that is possible?

Thanks for those comments. Agree with your points on the aesthetics and the need for simplicity of the product. We also agree with your points on the marketing side. Getting the site up sooner to get feedback like this helps a lot.

Thanks for the comment. Yes, I know what you mean -- projectors are always a pain. You're right, in small groups you can just use PitchIt, no need for a projector and for bigger groups like at an event you can use PitchIt so that the
