Challenge

Prior to implementing credits-based pricing, Rocketbrew faced challenges with its traditional subscription model. Customers often felt that they did not have enough time to leverage the product to the fullest extent and see results before the end of their standard 7 day trial subscription plan. Drawing inspiration from other successful sales products like Apollo.io, Rocketbrew immediately knew that they needed to execute on credits-based pricing for their customers.

"We needed to swiftly deliver credits-based pricing to our customers and in a single conversation we knew that Maple was the perfect partner to deploy it."

Heidi Ye – Co-founder and CEO of Rocketbrew

Solution

Recognizing the new strategy, Rocketbrew quickly leveraged Maple's Stripe continuous sync mechanism to quickly import their existing customers and plans into Maple. Within a week, they were able to integrate with Maple's credits management API for creating and consuming credits. This model allowed Rocketbrew customers to purchase credits upfront and redeem them for sequences and other core features based on their needs.
