Directions:
Set up two sign up pages on your site. One for free trials or direct signup and another geared towards a demo. (Idea here is to redirect countries that you aren't advertising in to only be able to set up a demo).
Add script to page that is your core signup page (Where they can set up an account).
Customize script:
Get script API KEY from www.ipregistry.co﻿
Add country codes from countrycodes.org
Add in link to your demo page.
Now when users visit the site, if they are from one of the countries you specify, it should automatically redirect them to the demo page only and prevent them from accessing the direct signup page.
It won't go away no matter what industry you are in. But.... that doesn't mean you have to take it blindly or not move forward because of that. You can take a few steps to keep it from happening.
