## Resource

Episode 81 of Product-Led Growth with Fexingo explores why PLG products need self-serve data migration tools to reduce churn and accelerate time-to-value. Lucas and Luna break down how companies like Notion and Airtable reduced onboarding friction by letting users import their own data without sales calls. The episode covers the economics of building migration wizards, the hidden cost of manual migrations, and why companies that neglect this feature miss out on upselling opportunities. Using real examples and data, the hosts explain how a self-serve migration path can cut trial-to-paid conversion time in half and improve net retention by making the product sticky from day one. #ProductLedGrowth #SelfServe #DataMigration #SaaS #PLG #UserOnboarding #Notion #Airtable #TimeToValue #SaaSRetention #DataPortability #CustomerSuccess #ProductStrategy #Business #Technology #FexingoBusiness #BusinessPodcast #GrowthStrategy Keep every episode free: buymeacoffee.com/fexingo
