CONTEXT & PROBLEM

At Pressable, sales was repeatedly closing high-traffic, enterprise customers through custom “premium” packages that did not formally exist in our product offering.

To quickly address this, we initially nested a Premium Plan offering inside our pricing page for speed. However, that page was optimized for self-serve Signature plans, not enterprise buyers.

High-intent traffic entered a funnel built for small businesses, resulting in confusion, weak self-qualification, and continued reliance on sales explanation.

RESEARCH

The strongest signal came from sales behavior.

Sales repeatedly constructed nearly identical custom plans to meet enterprise needs, proving consistent unmet demand. This was not an edge case. It was a missing product.

The opportunity was clear: separate the segment and design for its decision model.

WHAT I BUILT

FORUMALIZING THE SEGMENT

We defined Premium as a mission-critical infrastructure tier with standardized resources, pricing, and onboarding.

Instrumented scroll depth, CTA engagement, demo submissions, and sales qualification tagging.

EXPERIMENTATION FRAMEWORK

I moved Premium from nested pricing placement to a dedicated page to remove tier competition and cognitive overload.

PRODUCT & FEATURE CANON

Reordering the Premium Plan page to prioritize features that mattered like uptime guarantees, risk mitigation, security, white glove onboarding, early social proof, and demo-focused CTAs.

FOCUSING THE NARRATIVE

1. Sales behavior is product research.
When a team repeatedly invents the same solution to close deals, it signals latent demand. Formalizing that pattern unlocked scalable revenue.

2. Structural separation reduces cognitive friction.
Moving Premium to a dedicated page improved self-qualification more than incremental copy changes ever could.

3. Productization creates measurement.
Once Premium was formalized and isolated, we could instrument, test, and iterate. Before that, revenue was happening, but learning was not.

WHAT WE LEARNED

RESULTS & IMPACT
