If generative AI is so intelligent, why are off-the-shelf LLMs so bad at writing a personalized email or answering a customer service question? The simple answer: There’s a lot that AI models simply don’t know. Although LLMs are trained on billions of data points, the information they don’t have tends to be precisely what you would need to generate a meaningful email or accurate service reply to one of your customers.

Remember Lotus 1-2-3? WordPerfect? These once popular apps are classic examples of business software considered indispensable but that’s since gone the way of the dinosaurs. It’s a perennial challenge with no easy solution. As any IT professional can attest to, maintaining an enterprise tech stack can often feel like a game of Whac-A-Mole. You deploy software to solve a business problem, only to have that software become outdated or even obsolete when the next whiz-bang app comes along, sinking

Google’s June 2024 spam update rollout is now complete. The spam update started June 20, 2024, about 7 days ago. This update was a general and broad spam update, it was not a link spam update and did not automate the site reputation abuse policy , which is still only done via manual actions. Google wrote this morning, “The rollout was complete as of June 27, 2024.

Much of the marketing we create as marketers and experience as consumers is broad. Some of it will resonate with us; some it won’t. It’s always been this way because running truly 1:1 campaigns at scale simply isn’t possible today for most organizations. In my March article , I unveiled a call to action to drive more truly personalized customer experiences.

PPC advertising can be challenging, especially when your product or service falls into a sensitive or difficult category. Whether you’re promoting pharmaceuticals, financial services, adult content or other regulated industries, advertising – especially on Google Ads – requires a balance of creativity, compliance and ethical consideration. Google Ads remains one of the most powerful platforms for reaching potential customers.

So is “outbound dead”? This has become a hot topic and almost a meme across LinkedIn and social media in SaaS. There’s no question for most of us, outbound is a lot harder that it was in 2021. And that the standard, automated cadences and break-up emails generally aren’t performing all that well. But does that mean that high quality outreach to a prospect that’s in market or will be soon … doesn’t work?

I chuckled when I saw the words “Search was broken” on the LinkedIn profile of Stefan Weitz. This assessment had nothing to do with Google Search in 2024. Rather, he was talking about Google in 2010. This was a time when Google was loved despite only answering one in four queries successfully, according to Weitz. So what does the former director of Microsoft’s Bing search engine think of search in the generative AI era?

There are 3 absolutely empty lines with cashiers “waiting” to help you or there are 6 self-checkout kiosks that you can zip right through. What do you do? On the one hand, I didn’t want to bother the cashiers as I could certainly do the scanning and bagging myself, but on the other hand, I thought if I went to the self-checkout they might get angry at me because ha

Dear SaaStr: Why Might the Founder of a Company Appoint Someone Else as CEO? Because you should always be asking yourself, if everyone in a senior role is the right person for the next stage. Including you. Most of your VPs won’t scale all the way from $1m to $100m in ARR. So you need to both help them scale, and also, make sure you hire above them if necessary so the business does not stall out.

For some reason, there’s a huge attraction to applying “manufacturing techniques” to selling. I suspect it’s the perceived orderliness to manufacturing processes and the predictability of the outcome. It’s easy to understand that attraction.

Second, it always produces the same outcome (manufacturing experts will quibble, but we do design manufacturing lines to produce zero defects.
