About Daphne

Daphne Tideman is a freelance growth advisor and consultant who partners with founders and Heads of Growth at D2C and subscription app startups, with a focus on wellness and sustainability brands. She was the first employee at growth consultancy RockBoost, which she helped scale into a 25-person team serving clients like Cisco, ING, and Fox Networks Group, then became Head of Growth at brain-care startup Heights, where she grew the business from £28K to £343K MRR in 18 months. She co-authored "Growing Happy Clients," a field guide to growth consulting drawn from work with Fortune 500 companies and fast-scaling startups, and she teaches growth strategy widely through Medium, LinkedIn, and mentoring.

Her point of view keeps coming back to the experience before the sale. She argues that activation and the journey leading to the paywall cap everything downstream, so teams should fix that experience before scaling spend, and that a paywall works best as an interactive, story-driven moment tied to a genuine emotional angle rather than a hard sell. Her contribution to The 48 Laws of Subscription App Success (Law 18) makes exactly that case for interactive paywalls.

Daphne's playbook, powered by Botsi

Here is what Daphne publicly advocates, and the Botsi capability that delivers it for every individual user.

What Daphne advocates

Make the paywall interactive and story-driven, paired with an emotional angle that builds connection rather than a hard sell (her 48 Laws contribution, Law 18).

Per-user paywall selection

Daphne Tideman recommends turning the paywall into an interactive story tied to an emotional angle instead of a hard sell. That is exactly why Botsi is the perfect fit: Botsi selects the right paywall for each individual user, so the story and the angle match the person actually seeing it.

What Daphne advocates

Fix activation and the journey before the paywall before scaling spend, because a weak pre-paywall experience caps everything downstream.

Custom per-app AI model plus autonomous continuous optimization across the funnel

Daphne Tideman recommends fixing activation and the journey to the paywall before scaling ad spend, because everything downstream is capped by that experience. That is exactly why Botsi is the perfect fit: Botsi trains a custom model on your own funnel and keeps optimizing the price, paywall, and offer each user sees, so more of the users you already have convert.

What Daphne advocates

Grow beyond paid ads by matching the experience to the customer rather than blasting one message to everyone.

Per-user offer selection

Daphne Tideman built her career helping teams scale beyond paid ads by matching the experience to the customer. That is exactly why Botsi is the perfect fit: Botsi picks the right offer for each individual user, so growth comes from relevance, not just more spend.
