So at least in my experience and orbit, folks in tech have gotten progressively less satisfied and more unhappy the past 18 months or so. It’s not layoffs. Those folks have a reason to be upset, but there really haven’t been many in my ecosystem. And I’m excluding them. It’s not comp. While many in sales have seen comp declines, overall comp has held up outside of sales, and even in sales many are still paid quite well.

Last Friday’s post about delegation called The Class Missing from Business School, spurred a deluge of great advice from readers. There was a recurring theme when delegating: Identify the time-consuming & repetitive tasks by coloring or labelling your calendar, or calculating at the end of the week or month.

Dear SaaStr: Does it get easier or harder to scale SaaS as your company grows? Generally, it gets easier to grow at a “good”/modest rate at you scale, but harder to grow at an outsize rate. Why? Once you cross $5m-$10m in ARR, then usually: You have a brand. At least, you have a mini-brand in your niche. And that brand generates leads organically, and fairly low-cost leads.

They say time flies when you’re having fun. And in what felt like a blink of an eye, I look back and realize I’ve spent over 12 years at a16z. And what an unforgettable ride it’s been. When I joined, there were fewer than 30 employees. I knew everyone’s kid’s name, I knew their dog’s name. Back then we had to work hard to introduce ourselves to founders as some hadn’t heard of us, and the operating value add model was still unproven on Sand Hill Road.

Customers expect rapid value from your product (time-to-value), data security, and access to advanced capabilities. Traditional Business Intelligence (BI) tools can provide valuable data analysis capabilities, but they have a barrier to entry that can stop small and midsize businesses from capitalizing on them.
