Adaptation ideas

What to apply to your own product

  1. Idea: make upgrade guidance a first-class part of a business SaaS README.
  2. Idea: validate a vertical CRM concept through a working demo before customization.

Tradeoff to consider

The mature CRM surface can overwhelm a narrowly defined first release.

Starting route

Start the demo and document the minimum screens needed for one vertical sales process.
