One of the most important skills that a salesperson needs to possess is the ability to engage in what I refer to as “appropriate and respectful confrontation” with a prospect…at least when the need arises. For the sake of simplicity, let’s just refer to that as the ability to push back.

The Future of B2B Sales: Prioritizing Effectiveness over Trends B2B sales is a fashion show, and today’s fashion is artificial intelligence. The other dominant, yet slightly older fashion is pipeline coverage. Before that, it was SDRs and BDRs. Before that, it was technology. Before technology, it was the linear sales process. Before the linear sales process, it was something else.

Migrating a large website is always daunting. Big traffic is at stake among many moving parts, technical challenges and stakeholder management. Historically, one of the most onerous tasks in a migration plan has been redirect mapping. The painstaking process of matching URLs on your current site to the equivalent version on the new website. Fortunately, this task that previously could involve teams of people combing through thousands of URLs can be drastically sped up with modern AI models.

Most content strategies for B2B often rely on a subject matter expert or skilled writer to generate ideas, schedule content to satisfy the CMO and write based on perceived market demands. However, you must take the guesswork out of the equation to create relevant, high-performing content. Rather than rely solely on hypothesizing what an audience may want to read, savvy B2B marketers tap into social listening.

I’m not a fan of the television show “Survivor,” but let’s just say it gets viewed in our home and leave it at that. Like a significant portion of television programming, “Survivor” highlights the dark side of human existence. Contestants on the show make alliances, but as the number of contestants dwindles, allies are forced to turn against one another.

Google is investigating a Local Services Ads bug that’s causing businesses to appear in search results for their competitors’ names. The issue comes just weeks after the platform started piloting branded Local Service Ads (LSA) called Direct Business Search. This new ad type allows brands to show up in search results when someone directly searches for a brand or business.

So in the era of 2021, the time of 1,000 unicorns, it seemed like everyone and anyone someday, just might be a decacorn someday. And then in 2022, the markets crashed hard in SaaS. Since then, overall, SaaS multiples have stayed relatively low, at 6x ARR on average — for public SaaS companies. For really, really good companies at nine figures in ARR ?

Google accused the U.S. government of wanting to punish it for being more successful than its competitors. The company made the comments in an unsealed post-trial brief submitted to a DC federal judge as part of its ongoing legal battle with the U.S. Department of Justice, which has accused it of unlawfully monopolizing the search market. Within the legal documents, Google argued that its position as the world’s leading search engine results from its “unceasing hard work” and c

Dear SaaStr: What Kind of Background Checks Do VCs Do on Entrepreneurs They Fund? It varies. Everyone does some background checks, or least they did outside of the Boom Times of late 2020 through late 2021. And some do very in-depth ones with lots of “off sheet” references (i.e., ones not provided by the CEO). Many do few references checks beyond the CEO, but not all.

It’s getting harder to find Google Search results that don’t include Search Generative Experience (SGE) results. In three industries (education, B2B tech and ecommerce), SGE appeared on 98% of queries over the past 30 days. Also, it appears SGE has become active in three new countries: Romania, Poland and Turkey – though Google hasn’t announced this expansion yet.

Generative AI and LLMs (large language models) have turned the world of conversation design upside down. Going from rule-based, predictable chatbots to designing for generative, open-ended AI technology that handles natural language processing and understanding requires a new mindset. When experimenting with conversational AI, it’s easy to get lost in the innovation and forget the principles behind it.
