Why You Are the Key to Client Success in Modern Sales When you secure a first meeting with your dream client, neither your company, your clients, nor your solution is enough to cause your client to buy from you.

Randy Newman has written a lot of hit songs. The two most popular were probably Short People and I Love LA but he also wrote the music for Toy Story and Monsters, Inc. In 1970, Three Dog Night recorded one of his songs called Mama Told Me (Not to Come). If you don’t remember or weren’t around to hear one of the first hits of the 1970’s, you should probably watch/listen to the song, Mama Told Me (Not to Come) below and pay attention to the words in the chorus.

As someone who has both succeeded and failed at making this critical hire, I can tell you that when it works, it’s transformative. When it doesn’t, it’s potentially catastrophic.

If all of our marketing expectations became reality, it might look something like this: AI working efficiently, connecting with customers where and when they prefer to engage, or taking the tedious work out of your everyday tasks. But instead, it probably looks like this: you don’t know where to start with AI, send generic email promotions and hope someone opens them, and you manually do tasks that require a lot of time.

Thanksgiving weekend is my favorite time of the year. It’s a time for reflection and giving thanks, family gatherings, and a chance to catch your breath before the year’s final Q4 stretch and the obligatory beginning of Q1. But Thanksgiving’s influence goes well beyond the dinner table and gathering with friends and family. Thanksgiving is a significant driver of the economy, carrying a major impact across food, entertainment, travel, and retail.

Dear SaaStr: What is the shortest time it took for a company to go from concept/launch to their IPO? I think Lotus Software (of 1-2-3 fame) must be close.
