If you're in field sales, you know the reality: You spend hours every week sitting behind the windshield, staring at traffic that's moving at the speed of molasses. Whether you're dealing with Atlanta's notorious I-285 parking lot or any other major city's rush hour nightmare, that windshield time is either making you better or making you bitter.

I see so much talk about GTM, selling, marketing, customer service strategies. Too many claiming, “We have found the way… ” Others saying “Here is the playbook for your GTM strategy… ” In some sectors, like SaaS, we’ve seen many organizations struggle and fail by implementing the “SaaS GTM model.” The SaaS PLG motion differs from the SaaS individual/team focus which differs from SaaS technologies that can only be implemented on an enterprise

AI isn't here to replace you; it's here to boost your game. Used wisely, AI can be your secret weapon. AI is everywhere: in social selling, content creation, automation, to say the least. Here's the double-edged sword: If you're trying to outsource everything to AI, you won't last. If you're stuck in the old ways, refusing to adapt, you'll get left behind.

We live in overlapping circles on “Insularity.” Our families, friends, communities. Our teammates, functions, organizations, industries. These insular communities provide us different levels of security and comfort. From a professional point of view, they are made up of people doing similar things, facing similar issues/challenges. While we may compete with each other in the markets, we learn from each other, see differing approaches, sometimes seeing new opportunities.

Documents are the backbone of enterprise operations, but they are also a common source of inefficiency. From buried insights to manual handoffs, document-based workflows can quietly stall decision-making and drain resources. For large, complex organizations, legacy systems and siloed processes create friction that AI is uniquely positioned to resolve.

Dear SaaStr: We Have a Ton of VC Interest But Are Profitable. Should We Still Raise? Summary thoughts: Yes, if your balance sheet is weak. Yes, if your gut tells you you need it. Not just want it. But — Probably No if your balance sheet is strong and you’re not sure where to deploy it. Many founders end up regretting taking capital they didn’t need in the end.

Reflecting on my 25+ years leading revenue organizations, one thing has remained constant: the pressure to deliver consistent, predictable growth. Yet for much of that time, the concept of enablement has occupied a curious place in the business lexicon, important, certainly, but often misunderstood. Enablement was a well-intentioned category, championed by many leaders, myself included.

Today’s buyers expect more than generic outreach–they want relevant, personalized interactions that address their specific needs. For sales teams managing hundreds or thousands of prospects, however, delivering this level of personalization without automation is nearly impossible. The key is integrating AI in a way that enhances customer engagement rather than making it feel robotic.

Attention is a promising metric in advertising, but its meaning, value and measurement remain widely debated. Providers have taken different approaches, separately defining and capturing attention. Marketers are left to navigate the differences and determine what aligns with their objectives. With so many methodologies in play, the industry has lacked a standard foundation.

We’ve been trained to worship the recurring revenue model. It’s the star metric in every SaaS pitch deck, with ARR growth as the bedrock of business models. It dominates our feeds, the press and much of our thinking in business. Unicorns have been built on this recurring revenue model. But lately, that model has been shaky. And, I have to confess, I’ve always been a little confused.

If you havent heard the news, the U.S. government is phasing out the penny, which has been part of the U.S. economy for over 200 years. The Treasury Department recently announced that it will stop circulating new pennies by early next year. Afterward, there will not be enough pennies for everyday cash transactions, and businesses will need to start rounding up or down to the nearest 5 cents.

When I began my B2B sales career in 1977, there was no such thing as a sales tool. The only things we had were feet for walkin, knuckles for knockin, and a digit for dialing. Dialing from the office, or if you were on the road, from a pay phone remember those? No cell phones. I never even had a pager. My CRM was a shoebox with month and day dividers, and believe it or not, it worked just fine.
