Google Search is rolling out a change to its About this page/result feature where it includes links to the Internet Archive’s Wayback Machine.

We now can generate more content than ever before, but should we? What if we knew what buyers wanted and made more of that instead of producing what’s fast and/or easy?

Specifically, roughly 80% of closed sales deals we evaluated couldn’t be connected to marketing content.

Ask yourself a question, “Are you taking your people where they want/need to be taken?” Too often, we tend to focus on where we need to go/what we want to accomplish, but we fail in engaging our people as effectively, taking them where they need to be taken. Recently, I’ve had a fascinating experience working with a very high potential CRO.

Google is on trial for allegedly abusing its dominance of the $200 billion digital advertising industry. The U.S. Department of Justice claimed that through acquisitions and anticompetitive conduct, Google seized sustained control of the full advertising technology (“adtech”) stack: the tools advertisers and publishers use to buy and sell ads, and the exchange that connects them.

Google is experimenting with a new way to make ads more distinguishable in its search results. The update introduces a taller gray background for ads, accompanied by a “Sponsored” label and subtitles like “Promoted products” or “Promoted results.” This is a shift from Google’s current more subtle labelling approach.

Dear SaaStr: In B2B Startups, How Useful is Cold Calling? Look, I hate getting those calls. Especially the really pushy, dumb ones from SDRs that barely know their own products. Do those work?

Especially if you include “cold emailing” and “cold door knocking” into the definition of cold calling.

As businesses race to adopt artificial intelligence , many struggle with a crucial question: How can they harness this powerful technology without losing the trust of their customers and employees? Recent high-profile AI failures, like Google’s flawed AI Overviews , have made headlines, leaving the public wary of AI’s potential risks. With trust being harder to earn and easier to lose, even a small misstep could damage your brand’s reputation, eroding years of hard-earned loyalty.

So there have only been 3 SaaS IPOs since 2021. Just 3. But all 3 are pretty good ones: Klaviyo, blowing past $1B in ARR; OneStream, growing 37% at $500m ARR; and Rubrik, growing a stunning 35% at $920,000,000 in ARR. (Note: Rubrik’s ARR and growth numbers remain a bit confusing as it transitions 100% to SaaS-based revenue). Woah. The demand for cybersecurity products that work remains unbowed!

Maximizing sales rep performance is no easy task. 📈 Traditional sales training methods focus heavily on the first few weeks in the sales role.

Should it appear you are experiencing unstable selling, it’s wise to review what is in place and how to improve the process. An all-too-familiar approach offering a ‘golden opportunity’ appears to be in vogue, but it’s the wrong one for earning a returning and referring clientele—defining the Smooth Sale. If anything, these company types are experiencing high waves and rocky sailing, not to mention the possibility of capsizing.

For businesses that prioritize profit margins and cash flow, the ability to manage an advertising budget is a fundamental skill. Overspending due to human error almost always means a difficult conversation with clients and stakeholders. Allocating and managing a budget in PPC looked very different a decade ago. Today, as nearly everything gets automated, the terms of engagement are very different.
