Don’t tell me you miss me: 3 better approaches to user retention

Intercom, Inc.

It happens every day. A company you bought something from months ago sends you an email with three immortal words: “We Miss You”. These messages feel icky because the sentiment is belated and insincere. Deep down we know that the business doesn’t really miss us.

SaaStr

Q: What are some of the most overlooked details or challenges when integrating two companies post-acquisition? I can make a long list of challenges and overlooked details in acquisitions, but I think they all stem from 1 issue: not being honest about what things will look like in 24 months: Does the CEO really want to stay?
