The Case for Private SaaS

As security challenges mount for enterprise customers, we see an emergence of private SaaS solutions. Enterprises and large organizations who need major customizations to the system, stringent security, or definitive control over their environment use private SaaS (dedicated SaaS). Private SaaS differs from multi-tenant SaaS model. Rather than a single instance of software being shared by customers, each customer has their own environment.

The Rise of Mobile-First SaaS

In SaaS, it's apparent that most products are developed for desktop first. Given the nature of our hybrid work environment today, many tech experts predict that mobile apps will become increasingly dominant. SaaS businesses that fail to offer mobile-friendly solutions risk losing customers and falling behind their competitors. We see a significant growth opportunity for mobile-first SaaS products.

The Rise of MicroSaaS

Software-as-a-Service is huge. A staggering 99% of companies will use at least one SaaS product by the end of 2023. SaaS niches are dominated by a handful of vendors. For example, in CRM, it's Salesforce, Hubspot, ClickUp and Monday. Competitive markets don't preclude innovation though -- we're seeing the emergence of micro solutions to augment these big players. Witness the rise of microSaaS products.

Today, let's take a moment to dream big (we're overdue for an aspirational article). What if you were actually building a SaaS unicorn? It's possible -- so far, over a thousand startups have reached valuations over $1 billion. If becoming a unicorn was easy, everyone would do it, right?

In business, we use so many metaphors from baseball, and with the season upon us, we realized how much building SaaS is like playing baseball. Step into the batter's box, and get ready for our pitch.

Secrets of a Successful SaaS Business Development Manager

The overarching goal of any SaaS organization is to build sustainable growth. Predictable Revenue, authored by Aaron Ross, outlined the engine he orchestrated at Salesforce in its early days, taking recurring from one million to one hundred million. That model is a template used by many organizations today, primarily because it's logical, scalable, and often quite effective. We outline the framework as part of our journey through the secrets of a successful business development manager.
