Day-two video learning library on the start path

Keep an always-available video library on the main onboarding path so the product still teaches itself after the first guided tour ends.

Why this can grow a startup

A good evaluation does not end when the demo tab closes. Teams need a place to rehearse again the next day, especially when a second stakeholder joins late or a champion needs help teaching the rest of the team. A visible learning library extends the sales and onboarding surface without turning everything into another meeting. It also makes the brand look more serious because the product keeps helping after the first touch.

Source-backed example

Linear's Start Guide keeps its Learning Library and AI workflows playlists in the ongoing resources section, making day-to-day workflow education part of the default onboarding path instead of a hidden support asset.

When to use it

Use this when Docs, Content, Product is relevant to activation, education, retention and you can run a bounded test with a low budget.

When not to use it

Do not use it as a substitute for customer evidence, a clear owner, or a measurable stop condition. Local platform rules and market behavior still need checking.

How to do it

  1. Choose one target segment and define the exact next action this tactic should prompt.
  2. Adapt the tactic to Docs and Content, using evidence from Linear Docs as context—not as a promised result.
  3. Record a baseline for: Share of target users completing the product's first-value action. Set a guardrail that would make you pause the test.
  4. Run a narrow pilot and choose a test window that fits the normal decision or use cycle; do not scale before you have observed the full cycle.
  5. Compare the signal with its baseline. Scale only if the intended action improves without crossing the guardrail; otherwise revise one variable or stop and record what you learned.
