If one of your new features will only appeal to some of your users, try offering it as a paid add-on.
The only feature that ever significantly moved the needle for Josh Pigford of Baremetrics ($107,000/mo) was one that he made available as a paid add-on. He was frustrated that his new features never led to growth, but when he eventually launched one as an add-on, he saw a big increase in revenue. This tactic worked well with this specific feature because not everyone would have used it — if he had bundled it into the normal price, it may have gotten buried with the other features, and those who used it would have been undercharged.

The only trouble with this approach it can be met critically. I think the add-ons work if they have a semblance of logic. Recently saw a website for roommates search that requires a membership to receive messages from prospects. That is just a money grab. I think the add-on should make sense according to the product.
Great point! It's gotta make sense, but if used well it can be really beneficial
