    How to build a content strategy for your SaaS company

    Are you trying to figure out your content strategy? Here are 6 simple steps that can help you create a massive content backlog: 1) Who are you trying to help / serve? Ideally, use a real life example. 2) What keeps them up at night? What problems are they facing? 3) What are the negative consequences of their problems? What happens if they don't solve this problem? 4) What is their dream scenario? What are their motivations, needs and goals? 5) What are the checkpoints and milestones between where they are now and their dream scenario? Who do they need to become to achieve the transformation they want? 6) Build content for each step. Focus on the pain points, not the mechanical funnel stages.

It often happens inside companies where forecasting is treated more like a math exercise and the underlying growth model for the business isn't strong enough. That's why on this episode of How To SaaS, Shiv Narayanan talks about how executive teams can forecast sales projections more effectively, while still setting ambitious targets.

    How to align sales and marketing

    Have you ever been in a meeting where marketing claims that it is generating all these MQLs but sales isn't converting them, while sales claims the MQLs they're receiving are really not that good? On this episode, I talk about how MQLs are completely the wrong metric to use for alignment. Instead Sales Accepted Leads can do a far better job of bringing marketing and sales teams together to work as one unit.
