Go-to-Market Strategy¶
This document defines ConnectSoft's go-to-market approach and customer journey. It is written for marketing, sales, and product teams planning how to reach and convert customers.
ConnectSoft's go-to-market strategy leverages four domains (.ai, .io, .dev, .co.il) to reach different audiences with tailored messaging. Each domain serves a specific purpose in the customer journey from awareness to adoption.
Tip
The customer journey flows: Awareness (.ai/.io/.dev) → Interest (Factory/Platforms) → Evaluation (docs, demos, pricing) → Purchase (subscription) → Adoption (integration, usage) → Expansion (more platforms, upgrades, squads).
