In-house SEOs and consultants alike are routinely challenged to find new opportunities to expand organic traffic. But the classic approach of researching new keywords then writing articles for those that match your domain strength doesn’t work for all sites. Take Quora, for example. It’s one of the largest social platforms, with over 300 million monthly active users and nearly 54 million pages in Google’s index.

We had a request for some data from one of our longtime partners. My knee-jerk reaction to her request was that it would be a big nothing burger. She asked for data that would show the difference between salespeople who are goal oriented and those who are not. I did not expect much of a difference except in the area of Motivation but I was wrong. Very wrong!

Q: As a venture capitalist, what are some red flags that would make you reject a startup immediately? First, there is a lot of marginal behavior that doesn’t lead to an immediate rejection, but does lead to immediate skepticism: Metrics that don’t quite make sense. Weird metrics like “Quarterly MRR” or odd ways to describe revenue are immediate flags.

Have you ever heard the saying, “ Beauty is in the eye of the beholder?”. It’s the same with value in the eye of the buyer. Buyers pay attention to the “beauty” or value that is most important to them; and can get confused, sidetracked, or start to debate the cost for items they don’t see of value. More Isn’t Always Better . That’s why, when I heard a speaker at a conference tell the audience they should have a long list of specific components and features for ALL the potential services they off

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.

We all get a lot of emails. But if you ask anyone who has had a “C” or a “VP” at the front of their title, you’ll quickly learn that most modern executives face a firehose of sales reps, recruiters, marketers, and pick-your-brain-over-coffee-ers making direct requests for their time every day. Executives read so many cold emails, they get a front-row seat to the most overused email templates and the worst email writing habits.

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.

By Lisa Heay , Marketing Planning Manager at Heinz Marketing. Lead nurturing tends to be a misunderstood tactic. We often see companies whose nurture programs are filled with product and company-centric messaging, and the cadence may last 4 weeks, yet their average sales cycle is 9 months long. These emails are sent to cold prospects, and companies wonder why response rates are low—their nurture programs “just aren’t performing”.

Why If You Can Get to $10m ARR, You Can Get To $300m ARR. Woah. That may sound controversial, or even silly. VCs may mock this. But hold on. Let me prove it to you. If you can get to $10m ARR, with positive revenue retention, you can indeed get to $300m ARR. In fact, the odds might even be seen as high. How can that be? It’s just math. Three factors combining together: First, the overall market for SaaS continues to grow.

Win-win negotiation is the way to go…except in one situation: when the buyer has their hand in your pocket. Whether they're doing it intentionally or just out of habit, sometimes buyers try to push down seller prices just to see if they can. When they do, you should counter with value , but you also have to signal as you respond, "That won't work. I know what I'm doing.
