Figma journey
Why this works
**Why this works.** The subject line "Prototype like a pro" names the aspirational identity the user wants to claim, not the feature itself, so free users feel they're leveling up their craft rather than learning software. The pattern here is "sell the outcome identity, not the tool name"; you can lift it for any feature usage nudge where you want onboarded users to see themselves as more capable versions of themselves.
