So Vendr has their latest SaaS Buyer Report out here. There’s plenty of good data in there and it’s worth a read. One metric I wanted to highlight. And look, average sales cycles are almost meaningless. Bigger deals take longer. Small deals can close in one call. Some leads are warmer than others. More here. But still … across all the SaaS vendors that Vendr tracks, how long do deals take to close?

Dear SaaStr: What Was Your Biggest Early Days Mistake In Your Startups? Boy it’s tough to pick just one mistake. But I’d have to say in both my startups, the biggest mistake was not taking the time in the beginning to get the founding team right. This is tough. You want to go, go, go. You know perfection is the enemy. But the all-in cost of founders leaving, transitioning out, quitting etc is so very high.

Turning prospects into customers is a bit like a relay race. Imagine the marketing team as the first runner. They’ve sprinted hard, nurturing each lead with care and precision, and now they’re holding the baton of customer interest. Next up is the crucial moment: passing the baton to the sales team, set to dash to the finish line, er, close.

Data that teams can transcribe, analyze, and summarize from their customer Conversations is super helpful…if it gives them the full picture of what’s actually going on. That’s because trying to understand a situation using point-in-time and single conversation data is like trying to see the big picture by looking through a keyhole. It makes it nearly impossible for revenue teams to answer the “big-picture” questions.

You have a customer who’s ready to buy (hurray!). Before you can ink the deal and cash your commission check, you need to outline the details of product delivery and payment in a sales order. After all, the last thing you want is for the customer to buy one thing but get something else because you didn’t document the details. If you’re unfamiliar with sales orders — or have struggled with the right way to draft one — don’t worry.

In March, I published a study on generative AI platforms to see which was the best. Ten months have passed since then, and the landscape continues to evolve. OpenAI’s ChatGPT has added the capability to include plugins. Google’s Bard has been enhanced by Gemini. Anthropic has developed its own solution, Claude. Therefore, I decided to redo the study while adding more test queries and a revised approach to evaluating the results.
