Freemius Interviews Verdi: The No-Hype Guide to Influencer Success

Most startups dream of going viral. Verdi didn’t bother.

Instead, he wrote a few emails, offered an outrageous deal, and built real partnerships that helped turn Code Snippets into a six-figure success – fast.

In this refreshingly honest Freemius Insights interview, our Co-Founder Verdi sits down to share the actual influencer strategy behind his launch – no fluff, no followers required. Along with startup mentor Justin Fairman, he breaks down why trust beats traffic, and how small software companies can punch way above their weight with the right outreach.

Here’s what you’ll walk away with:

He is a web creator at heart and a natural builder who somehow turned solving other people’s problems into a career. As Global Community Manager at Elementor and co-founder of Code Snippets, Verdi spends his days making WordPress feel less intimidating and untangling issues that usually begin with “it was fine five minutes ago.” He believes in long-term relationships, learning by doing, and teaching people how to fish—while calmly asking why they brought a toaster to the lake. Away from the screen, Verdi is a husband, a proud dad of two, powered by curiosity, dry humor, and a lifelong habit of overthinking things just enough to make them better.
