Having been raised in organizations that valued performance planning, I had assumed these were common place. Starting my selling career in IBM, we all had them.

Dear SaaStr: What Were Your Toughest Times Before Breaking Out? My toughest times: COO pulling out after signed term sheet — VCs then pulled term sheet. This of course was my fault — I hired the “wrong” COO. But boy it was tough. I had 9 employees on payroll and $0 in the bank. Co-founder walking out the door. Man that’s tough.
