When one company, or a group of companies, has a large enough market share in an industry, it may be able to push the price away from the equilibrium. This is called price leadership. This mainly occurs in industries with strong barriers to entry, for example the need for a large amount of capital to compete, where advanced technologies are required, or the government elects to only allow certain companies to control the market.

A payment ledger is one of the basic tools of bookkeeping. It helps to record payments related to a specific purpose. This might be anything from a small project within a company to the full day-to-day cash activities of the entire company. A ledger allows you to record the item when it is conceived and then update it upon payment, which means you don’t forget about upcoming items or forget to follow through on the payment of previous items.

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.

Customer Success in SaaS isn’t just a function or a role within an organization – it’s a company-wide practice that needs to revolve around a universal mentality: when the customer succeeds, we succeed. If your customer achieves value from your product, they will perpetually renew, advocate and expand. Therefore, an organization-wide Customer Success (CS) transformation is fundamental to propelling the growth of your business.
