Product & growth
Product-led growth (PLG)
Growth driven by product usage rather than by sales.
Definition
Product-led growth is a strategy where the product itself drives acquisition, conversion and expansion: free trial, self-service, value demonstrated before purchase. The role of Customer Success and sales then concentrates on usage signals.
Why it matters
In PLG, accounts are numerous and human attention scarce: spotting the right usage signals becomes the condition for stepping in where it counts, in retention as in expansion.
