Measuring your SaaS success

I recently participated in Marco Montemagno's SuperSummit and gave a webinar about the topic "Measuring your SaaS success". Thanks, Marco, for inviting me!

Below are the slides of my talk. Since some of the slides aren't self-explanatory I've added some notes, see the yellow bubbles. If you want to dive in deeper, check out this post, which the talk was based on.

SaaS Funding Napkin, the 2017 edition

Image
Today is January 10, 2017. That means that in ten days, this jerk will become the leader of the free world. Ugh. It still feels surreal to me. In less earth shattering news, the fact that it's 2017 also means that my "SaaS Funding in 2016" napkin needs an update. As a reminder, in the original post I tried to give a "back of a napkin" answer to this question: What does it take to raise capital, in SaaS, in 2016? Today I'd like to take a stab at the (early) 2017 answer to that question. Like in the 2016 version, the assumption is that the founding team is relatively "unproven".

Some people (rightfully) mentioned, though, that the image is hard to read on mobile devices. So if a napkin has a good format for a desktop or laptop screen, which real-world-analogy could be a fit for mobile screens? You guessed right. Here you go (please scroll down or click here ).

Learning More About That Other Half: The Case for Cohort Analysis and Multi-Touch Attribution Analysis (Part 1 of 2)

Note: This article first appeared as a guest post on the popular KISSmetrics blog . Thanks to Hiten Shah and Sean Work  at KISSmetrics for publishing it. I'm republishing the post here as a series of two shorter posts, with a few small edits. Anyone who has ever worked in marketing or advertising has heard the quote, “Half the money I spend on advertising is wasted; the trouble is I don’t know which half.” It is from John Wanamaker and dates back to the 19th century. Fortunately, the industry has come a long way since then, and especially in the last 10 to 20 years, new technologies have made advertising more measurable than ever. However, there’s still a considerable gap between what people could measure and what they actually are measuring, and that leads to significant under-optimization of advertising and marketing dollars. In B2B SaaS, which we at Point Nine Capital focus a lot of our efforts on, there are two techniques that I feel are particularly important but not...
