SaaS will evolve to mean Skills as a Service. Selling the outcomes and results of a product. Cheaper and faster. It'll look archaic that we used to give people software that took days to setup and hopefully get results.
I was building products nobody wanted, burning money on APIs, and watching SaaS after SaaS stall out. So yeah, not my finest chapter. And when you're stuck in that loop, you start asking different questions. The one that changed everything: "Am I solving MY...
I’m thinking of starting a SaaS mastermind ✨ Other SaaS founders ✨ Over $40,000 MRR ✨ Bootstrapped or seed only ✨ High intent / dialed in Any #buildinpublic people interested?
If your GTM feels stuck, run this experiment. It will take you 30 days: 1. Pick ONE growth goal. Pipeline, activation, or expansion. Not all three. 2. Pick ONE audience. Not "SMB + mid-market + enterprise." One. 3. Pick ONE offer. This is what we do. Not...

“We didn’t know the AI boom was about to happen.” But it’s now driving more demand for everything @DrataHQ does - compliance, security assurance, vendor risk. @markowitzadam on the difference between luck and positioning. Full episode: https://t.co/QqQ8deMpCS https://t.co/FaqsVeUjfP
SAP's arrogance fuels customer issues. Believing they have all answers, they pressure clients to choose cloud over on-prem for sales reps' higher commissions. This isn't ethical, it's a reality of the current landscape. #SAP #BusinessEthics #Cloud https://t.co/PBEVWguzbD
"We're the all-in-one solution." Cool. But that's not why they bought you. QuickBooks has 1,000 features. But people didn't hire it for 1,000 features. They hired it because of a few core struggles: they needed to get paid, pay others, and survive tax...

For the 2,300+ of you who bookmarked the full playbook. We both know you’re not reading all that. So I turned it into a list of the 7 things I see actually working right now for launching a SaaS from...

If your GTM looks impressive but revenue is flat, that’s not bad luck. You're stuck in the classic GTM Theater vs. GTM Strategy trap. Let me explain... GTM Theater is when... 1) You've got that Agency running ADs, and they're showing you all the...

1/ The market is convinced that AI will kill SaaS. That seems overly simplistic. There's been carnage in Japan's SaaS sector, with babies clearly thrown out of the bathwater. That could signal opportunity. https://t.co/cmwPpqWG59

Salesforce is now bridging four domains at once: Salesforce Implementation (CRM) Databricks (data lake) Agentforce (AI agents) Data 360 (data platform) The platform wars are not about features. They are about who owns the most connected node in your stack.
Question for the @laravelphp Spark users out there, ideally the Paddle version: how have you extended billing for things like credits/optional subscriptions/one-time-payments? Anything more comprehensive out there? Is there a migration path?

Does a hype cycle have a retention curve that looks like this? Literally never seen a retention cohort graph like this https://t.co/BwMCDv7eIY
Right now, founders have two choices. One, they can pretend like they're living under a rock with their product, even if they have strong product-market fit right now. Or two, they can realize that product-market fit evolves faster than ever before...
Replacing paid tools with vibe coded apps is all well and good, but something I'm thinking about is the importance of staying on top of what existing apps are launching. Sure you can bring a tool to parity today with the...
This is a common problem and one of our biggest motivations in building Nile - to isolate tenants automatically and by default.
"Creation as a Service" will always beat "Software as a Service". I don't want your lowest-common-denominator software. I want software to work for me and meet my needs. I want platforms and infrastructure. To me, Slack is a good example of...

Greg Isenberg thinks 2026 is about to create 10x the number of entrepreneurs. Massive SaaS layoff wave, everyone starts building. He's probably right, but most of these new founders are going to make the same mistake I made for 4 years... They're...

I spoke with a $50M ARR founder yesterday. He said something I haven’t stopped thinking about: “We have product-market fit right now. But that’s PMF pre-AI.” Let that sink in. Most users aren’t deeply loyal. They’re accepting the friction because there hasn’t been a dramatically...

Agentic coders allow us to quickly iterate on what’s best for our customers using ClickFlow (our AEO/SEO content creator). I can’t understand any modern company that doesn’t use these. The speed we have as an org now would have been unfathomable 12...

RISE with SAP might be too risky if long-term flexibility, cost, or optionality are top concerns. For businesses facing uncertainty or rapid evolution, consider hyperscaler-hosted S/4HANA to hedge your bets. #SAP #CloudComputing #BusinessTransformation https://t.co/xURleBJmTX
The future of design is… engineering. All designers at @vercel now also build, thanks to tools like @v0, Claude Code, and Cursor. They've been contributing to our frontends and apps for a while now. But over the past few months, the leap...
Tools can ease implementation, but some add risk. Consider the cost of licensing and integration. Models like RISE and GROW offer starter kits to test before full commitment, letting you sample features before buying licenses for everyone. #TechTools #Implementation https://t.co/YeApnMYwZC

4 years stuck at $2.5M ARR. I had no idea if this was my retirement plan or the thing that broke me. Then I built a $7.3M ARR company in 18 months with 3 employees and zero funding. The weapon turned out to...

Enterprise software companies compete on accumulated operational insight. That embedded knowledge compounds over time. AI can generate applications. Institutional learning still requires experience in the field. https://lnkd.in/gef6zQ7u #AI
We've audited 100+ B2B websites. Most of them make the same mistakes: - The page tries to speak to everyone - The CTA assumes everyone is ready to buy - The hero talks about features, not outcomes The logic behind high-converting sites is simple: Every element...

Bootstrappers need to have prices like $30/mo-$80/mo, not like $10/mo. It’s not harder to get customers (see how many times someone raises prices and # cust/day doesn’t change), but you have no money for anything - no marketing, no engineering, no...
