Every business that has ever been started has done so by wanting to position its products or services on a continuum between the two extremes of value and price. Some businesses (think Apple, Ritz Carlton) are focused on delivering a high value experience. Some businesses (think Walmart) are focused on being the low-cost provider in their industry. Most businesses land somewhere in the middle.

Marketers’ primary job is to know what the customer wants. It’s simple, but not easy. When Jim Stengel was CMO of Procter & Gamble, he told me, “You can never know the customer too well.” Jim knew his customers well enough that he turned Swiffer (an upgraded dust rag) into a multi-billion dollar brand platform. If there is one thing the public has made clear, it’s that they are not impressed by AI in their products.

Dear SaaStr: When Should a CEO Tell Startup Employees That The Company Is Going Under? I recently asked this of an candidate I interviewed that just went through the shut-down of a top-VC backed start-up. It’s more common these days than in the past, given all the explosion of capital in 2020-2021 … into startups that aren’t going to make it.

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role. Companies dedicate time, resources, and budget to onboarding new hires, only for them to forget what was learned in those first few weeks, lose motivation, and struggle to come to grips with their role.

So there’s one issue a lot of founders struggle with when they finally get a good M&A offer to acquire the company — what about the team? They didn’t come to join a 10,000+ BigCo. They came to be on the journey. To be Pirates & Romantics. Is it fair to them to sell? Especially if the economics are just “OK” for a lot of them?

I had an interesting conversation with a prospective new client this week. Someone I have never spoken with before but from an industry (process manufacturing) we know a lot about. What was interesting about the conversation was that this potential client wants to take a radical new approach toward developing the future leaders of her company.

When I first opened the (digital) doors of my content marketing agency, I was responsible for every function including prospecting, pitching, and executing each project — along with juggling the administrative tasks of running a business at the same time. While my job was to do everything, I naturally focused on the areas that were most interesting to me — like sales and content strategy — and it didn’t take me long to fall way behind on “busywork” like issuing sales invoices.
