Steal Design Flows from Notion, and Figma, for higher retention

In partnership with

Looking to elevate your brand with a custom hat?

Don’t make it just any hat. Make it a Branded Bills hat.

Why? They make quality merch (especially hats) that people actually want to wear.

Don’t just take it from us, here is what one of their recent clients has to say:

“I think Branded Bills is memorable because it is more of a lifestyle brand for us. It’s not just employees wearing them to work or technicians wearing them out in the field; they're wearing them to bowling alleys, sporting events, etc, and they’re repping our brand which is exactly what we want.” Rebecca Ferguson, Empire CAT

Hey Fam, Kushagra here from AtlasMoth. Many founders fumble their design flow early on and end up stuck—no users, no vibe, no growth.

This edition will cover slick design moves you can snag to level up your product game.

Make it pop!

I’ve signed up for tons of apps and tools, and these are some fire takeaways:

Fave trust-vibes design: Notion

Social proof is a clutch for building trust—think reviews, ratings, and the like. Here are six ways to flex it:
✅ Props from an Expert
✅ Shoutout by Celebs
✅ Badges of Trust
✅ Stats That Hit
✅ Real Feedback from Users
✅ Unbiased Reviews

Using social proof in the user flow isn’t just smart—it’s a growth hack top brands swear by.

Notion flexes user shoutouts and reviews from legit sources, boosting its cred. Real-time love from users shows how much folks dig it, making new peeps feel safe to give it a go.

Their site is packed with wins—customer stories and big-name logos. It screams, “We’re the real deal!” and generates trust.

Fave cancel flow: Figma

I didn’t ditch Figma (I’m a fan for life), but their cancel flow? Chef’s kiss. Why? They heard the users loud and clear. No games, no stress.

What I loved about it:

They showed all the fine print—renewals, late fees, all of it.

Most brands hide this stuff (cough banks), but Figma kept it real.

They even gave opt-ins for renewal alerts.

Golden rules for cancel flows:
✅ Show your worth
✅ Ask why they’re leaving
✅ Offer a plan B
✅ Make quitting easy

They hit me with a list of all the files and projects I’d lose. Oof.

That’s how you get folks to stay—remind them of what they’re giving up.

Loss aversion is king, just like with reverse trials.

Once you’ve had the good stuff, it’s hard to let it go.

Fave free trial flow: Blinkist

Blinkist nailed it with their 7-day trial setup. Super clear, step-by-step:

• Day 5? Reminder.

• Day 7? Heads-up about the charge.

This keeps it real, makes canceling stress-free, and gives users the "yeah, I got this" energy to start a trial. The glow-up:

✅ +23% trial signups
✅ -55% user rants
✅ Push opt-ins jumped from 6% to 74%

They laid it all out, no shady moves.

Users feel safe, and let’s be real—when you’re busy and might forget, this setup feels like a life hack.

They didn’t just ask for push opt-ins—they gave a reason.

Like, “This’ll save you $100 if you need to bail.” Easy yes.

And boom, now you’re in their loop for life.
