SaaS GTM: The Mechanics of Exponential Growth by Santosh Sharan - a youtube video with incredible value that only got 161 views (shocker). In case you didn't know, Santosh is the COO of Retention.com, mastermind behind RB2B, ex-VP Product/Growth at ZoomInfo & advised a load of data SaaS companies you've definitely used, including Gong... I like to geek out on GTM strategies, and this one SLAPS. Here's a little Google Doc I've put together (in collaboration with Samuel Svestka & ChatGPT) which summarizes the hour long video: https://lnkd.in/d4r7EEnn ✅ Drop a like if I should share some of my other findings on SaaS GTM strategies. ✅ Don't forget to drop Adam Robinson & Santosh Sharan a follow, their approach to building in public is defining a new paradigm in B2B SaaS.

I know VPs and AVPs who are getting paid 20LPA and I also know AEs in high-growing SaaS getting paid 30LPA+ In HSR Bengaluru a friend of mine works as AVP at 12LPA and they have 11 AVPs for a company size of 30 😅 In today's startup-driven world, designations don't hold much value. Yet, we often seek social validation and waste energy in unnecessary battles with HRs and Hiring Managers. Work, Bargain, and Negotiate for what TRULY matters -Salary (For your Bills, EMIs, and Savings) -ESOPs (For future wealth creation) And do your due diligence in understanding -Manager (A supportive and practical human) -Culture (You need peace and happiness to thrive) -Learning (To master your skills) Don't get blindsided by an 8-9% hike for a heavy title that will live on LinkedIn for NOT MORE than 24 hours. #sales #salary #designation #hike #saas #b2b

#post10 Perspective matters. Test cricket - Average runs per wicket. Lower the number, better the bowler. One day cricket- Average doesn’t matter on the match day too much, what matters is the economy rate of the bowler on that day. T20 cricket- Economy rate will most likely to be bad for all, bowlers are measured how many dots they bowled on that day! That creates their brand on the batter’s paradise. (Broadcasters also show these dashboards and analytics based on the format of the game only and stay relevant 😊) However, in all forms of the match, one thing creates difference always; number of wickets. That is not comparable to anything. Life echoes this everywhere… How we deal with the situation in different perspectives and different ways…keeps us relevant time to time. However, one thing is not negotiable there. The emotional glue quotient. How humanly we deal with the people. Play your test, one day and T20 game based on the situation and perspective (being humble, respectful and honest)! Always stay RELEVANT irrespective of all perspectives! #chakrashots #people #leaders #careers #experience #share #opportunity #sales #salesman #leadership #feedback #learnings #professionals #economics #globalmarket #globaleconomics
