I also have a couple of examples of companies that pivoted from one model to the other, and how the transition went. The world of startups was essentially transformed when we figured out SaaS. When companies pivoted from a one-time sale to a monthly subscription, a whole world of possibilities was unveiled. SaaS allows predictable revenue. It lets us estimate customer lifetime value with unprecedented accuracy. These days you can even raise capital or get a loan based on your MRR. So let’s get to it. #startups #slidebean #SaaS -- 0:00 SaaS Pricing - Intro 0:45 SaaS Pricing - Flat 2:11 SaaS Pricing - Tiered 3:43 SaaS Pricing - Usage Based 4:52 SaaS Pricing - Used Based 6:46 SaaS Pricing - Pivoting Models -- Follow Caya: https://twitter.com/cayahere https://instagram.com/caya_here Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5-star for new episodes.

Slidebean helps founders scale their startups: The Slidebean Platform ► https://yt.slidebean.com/c4n Join the Startup Club, a crunch of startup news for busy founders 🕶️ ► https://yt.slidebean.com/qf5 -- Nowadays, with just a couple of taps, your favorite food is at your door. Delivery apps, especially in this hectic 2020, are a staple in our day-to-day lives. With thousands of restaurants to choose from, ease of use, and the comfort of staying at home, it's no wonder why these apps are such a success. But food delivery technology is also controversial. Accusations of monopolistic behavior and stingy earnings for contractors have surfaced lately. Plus, there's always the question: will we have to stay indoors for much longer? So, when delivery giant DoorDash quietly announced its IPO in late 2020, some were excited, but others were cautious. But, how did DoorDash get to this point? We'll tell you all about it in this episode of Company Forensics. #startups #Slidebean #doordash 0:00 - DoorDash - Intro 0:51 - DoorDash - Origins 2:40 - DoorDash - Growth and funding 4:37 - DoorDash - Big investments, bigger questions 6:44 - DoorDash - Controversies and profit? 9:24 - DoorDash - The famed IPO DoorDash pitch deck template: https://slidebean.com/templates/doordash-pitch-deck-template Read the video transcription + sources: https://slidebean.com/blog/startups-doordash?utm_source=youtube.com&utm_medium=content&utm_campaign=ba-content Check out Tom Nash's analysis on DoorDash IPO and many other interesting videos: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJwKCyEIFHwUOPQQ-4kC1Zw -- Follow us Twitter aka X: http://twitter.com/slidebean LinkedIn: http://linkedin.com/company/slidebean Instagram: http://instagram.com/slidebean Caya Twitter aka X: http://twitter.com/cayahere LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/caya/ Turn on notifications for the podcast & rate it a 5-star for new episodes.
