Who is she?

Good talk. Thank you

Thanks Jason!

Really grateful for this content!!! Thank you Sam, this is all great info! ❤

Did you guys use AI to cut the video? Could you guys say which product? It makes it really easier to pay attention to the content.

AK is so badass!!

Always bringing it back to the business is so important ❤

It s like listening to Morpheus

Customers are weary of the endless offers. I believe this will be very difficult to overcome.

I just wrote a "life story" as part of my pitch deck, figured it seemed a bit long, then found this video. Deleting it now and starting again!

This video came right after a fund asked me to submit a pitch for funding my company. The time couldn't be any more perfect. Thank you.

6 years, 7 comments. So underrated.

Is SaaStr only for sales?

This was one of the best summaries for Tech partnerships

love the amount of fbombs incorporated

Uh oh. Better change my LinkedIn title to something other than "strategist" ASAP!

Next up: Join us for 2024 SaaStrAnnual.com Sep 10-12 in SF Bay!!

the only one getting tested is the prospect 😂 this is funny

Such a great convo!!

Chestnut? Should't it be Mailsquirrel? JK I love the product. 🐿

Freemium is the way to go

I would always have a huge respect for everyone that said no. Who I will never forget are the investors that have left my very short and polite inquiry as "seen". What are we on, Tinder? Do I get it, wow you're so important and busy to not have the time to press one button and send an automatically generated answer? That's so rude!

Did this happen 9 months ago or 9 years or more ago?

Such hidden gem on RUclips this is!

not the vibe..

3:39:25

You guys rock! 😊

"Startup founders role is only for broken people!" I am glad that other people are recognizing this truth.

Fantastic talk.

Truly great.

Ok, what are those questions?

Would've loved to see the slides

100% incorrect about KPIs. I guarantee KPIs are different at 50k, 5million, 500 million and 5 billion independent of industry. Software SASS people are hilarious. 0% need to have a technical co-founder ever.

Great video on cultivating a successful sales culture and building an efficient business! I really appreciated the insights on prioritizing team success and focusing on sustainable business growth. Definitely resonates with my approach as a leader.

Anish i love what you have said its close to being real and its actual

A founder’s founder!

So wonderfully practical. Thank you.
