6 SAAS GROWTH TACTICS THAT GREW SUPADEMO TO $40K MRR IN 18 MONTHS

HOW TO ACTUALLY ‘USE AI TO WRITE YOUR BLOG POSTS'

AI can significantly reduce the time and effort needed to create high-quality content marketing. The first step is to craft a detailed prompt chain that works for your brand, explaining your company, product, persona, voice, and any other important information. This can then be used to have the AI pull out key ideas from existing content (e.g. a webinar transcript), generate blog post ideas, produce an outline, and then write each section one at a time. A human should always fact-check and edit. This method can be used repeatedly to create high-quality, on-brand content with actual original thinking and thought leadership.

5 COMMON EXAMPLES OF USELESS ACTIVATION MILESTONES

This post covers five useless activation milestones that are either too early or too late to be meaningful: sign-ups, completing onboarding, five unspecified actions, revenue increases, and conversion. These milestones do not accurately reflect user engagement or value realization. Instead of chasing them, focus on impactful milestones that predict user retention. Depending on the product, an impactful activation milestone could be when a user collects survey responses, gets a view on a created video, or listens to a significant portion of content.

HOW GONG USES BUYER PSYCHOLOGY

Gong, an AI-powered platform that captures and analyzes customer lifecycle data, has reached more than 4,000 clients and become a billion-dollar company. Rather than trying to position itself as a solution in an established market category, the company created a new one (revenue intelligence) and framed itself as “the undisputed leader.” Gong uses AI to define the key points and best next steps for its customers, which helps them get value quicker instead of wasting energy organizing the data manually. It was one of the first SaaS companies to leverage its team's personal brands to propel growth - this cultivated a sense of unity within the industry and resulted in massive marketing reach on LinkedIn.

Marketers will need to stay ahead of AI developments and ensure they maintain oversight for quality control.
