Slack + Platform growing +19% at $8.8B in annualized revenue at Salesforce! Could Slack quietly be one of the greatest B2B acquisitions of all time? Maybe At a minimum, right now Platform + Slack are the fastest growting segment at Salesforce. The new AI...
There are so many products I would buy if the vendor just said "I'll do all the work for you" Instead, they all just want to tell me why they are 10x better But not really help me: - buy...
Every SaaS founder thinks they know their ICP. But very few actually take the time to sit down and document it. Mikael Dia shared this page from my book, The Product-Led Playbook, where he mapped out his ICP and clarified...
At least based on the path we’re on right now, AI will be best harnessed by people who understand the domain they’re working in (or problem they’re trying to solve). And thus, AI will ultimately augment how we work vs....
$0-$1m ARR: tiny team does it all themselves $1m-$10m ARR: assemble world-class team $10m-$50m ARR: somehow, it now takes 2x as many people to do anything as it used to $50m-$250m ARR: not sure what most of the company does

Numerous leaders tend to view competitive advantage as a stronghold—safeguarded and impervious to external forces. Yet, in the fast-paced environment we live in today, that viewpoint could very well turn into your most significant weakness. It's time to reconsider the...
Early demos are clunky—but they bring the best feedback. Great chat with Kelby Zorgdrager & Dave Murphy (TryTami) on rapid AI-driven product iteration, fast engineering loops, and shipping features in days. YT: https://t.co/QOQelZUnUN #SaaS #TryTami https://t.co/xrm6MFM5DZ
We landed one of the absolute darlings of the ecom very early at Retention(.)com. Everyone knew them. Every brand respected them. Every ecom founder wanted to be them. We said the brand’s name no less than 100,000 times over the next...
Larger VC funds want to cram more and more capital into their winners. More than ever. It’s not that complicated but two core reasons: #1. Fewer and fewer winners, so everyone wants to throw money at whatever truly breaks out...
How to level up as a B2B Marketing Leader (something we created) I've spent the last 10 years around a group of incredible marketers; in my career as VP of Marketing and then CMO, through hosting my podcast, and now...

The next billion-dollar companies will be built with 3 people and an AI stack.
I’ve been carrying the same product in my head since 2003. Every few years I’d take another run at it, only to watch it collapse under the limits of whatever tech existed at the time. It always worked in one...
LinkedIn CPO: "I see a lot of companies roll out their agents and just expect people to adopt them. It doesn't work this way. It's not enough to give them the tools. You have to build the incentive programs, the...

LinkedIn built an "trust agent" that reviews team PRDs and identifies potential attack vectors, before they start building
Most sales teams don’t have a pipeline problem. They have a learning problem. The symptoms are the same everywhere: Higher costs. Flat quota attainment. Exhausted reps wondering why “work harder” is somehow still a strategy today. Meanwhile, the top-performing teams...
Marketing will never be the same again. Evidence of the shift is already visible. Teams are experimenting with AI in scattered ways, but the scale of what is coming is much larger. Creativity once expanded at the pace of human production. Today...

Here’s a workflow that I love: Customer buys a specific product 6x or more → automatically triggers a Slack notification to the team → creates a personalized task in project management → schedules a follow-up email for 30 days later...
"3 founders alone can't scale a real business" - that's what they said in Jan 2025 when we set out to build the first autonomous business. To all the haters: We're still standing, moth****ers! 11 months later: 200+ customers, 5M+...
Every tool has every feature. Winning on more/better features is a transient advantage at best. So what do you do when you're very similar to other players in the market? In B2B SaaS, you're competing on your story. On whether...
Customers everywhere are signaling the same message. Their needs have outgrown the systems designed to serve them. Wait times increase. Outcomes suffer. Growth stalls. That is trapped value. Agentic AI provides a release. The question is whether leaders will invest...
In April, we switched all customer interactions to AI. Then a few months later, AI ran our entire $6.6M ARR business alone for 7 days. 0 humans around. Sales: 176 conversations initiated with a 96.6% accuracy. Only 6 wrong answers...
A little personal news, @groupthinkAI is stable and will continue to operate and slowly grow its paying customer base — but I’ve decided to start exploring other VC-outcome scale ideas… can’t wait to share my first prototype
Who's the top n8n expert in B2B marketing, someone who does cool things with it and talks about it?
The best marketing ideas come from studying your customers (not your competitors)
Everyone in B2B tech uses AI, relatively few see real GTM impact. Maja and I recently surveyed 195 B2B GTM leaders. Three-in-four said they feel top-down pressure from the CEO & Board to adopt AI. But the impact is a...
The perfect SaaS is fully self-serve. Otherwise, it's not really "-as a service" - it's just software. Users should be able to: → Sign up themselves → Onboard themselves → Create value for themselves → Find help by themselves → Cancel by themselves No handholding from the team...

Build High-Precision ABM Lists With Clay 🔍 Most B2B teams still build lead lists the old way… Manual. Slow. Incomplete. But with Clay, your outbound and paid pipeline becomes a data engine. ABM starts with one thing: a perfect list....
You can’t afford to build your Account-Based Marketing (ABM) lead list with just one or two tools. You need something powerful—something that not only finds people but enriches them with verified, usable data you can actually act on. That’s where...
LLMs are the new disk drives: commodity infrastructure you hot-swap for whoever’s cheapest + best. The fantasy that the model is a moat just expired. ☠️ https://t.co/VIBm3TH6nr

"You can't do research for everything." I agree. You shouldn't. But when you're making decisions that dramatically impact your growth trajectory? That's exactly when you need research. Here's my litmus test: If you get this decision wrong, does it set...
You can't do research for everything. But if you're changing pricing without talking to a single customer? You're wasting your time. Data alone won't tell you what customers actually value or will pay for. Full breakdown 👉 https://t.co/8qxMBYLAxh https://t.co/GTn0Dacej4
Most AI homepages look sharp but fall flat where it matters. We put real buyers in front of the most-hyped AI tools and watched confusion spread as soon as they hit the homepage. What we learned will surprise you. The buyer reactions were...
