Over the last ten years, the 75th percentile post-money valuation of a cloud software or infrastructure company has grown 11% annually. In 2021, the post-money valuation has spiked 60% from $48.1m to $77.0m. While not as hyperbolic an inflation rate as copper or lumber, the price trajectory of early stage cloud startups does result from a similar supply demand/imbalance.

“I don’t want to meet [That VC]. I don’t need money now and it’s distracting.” — most founders, post Seed round. …… There’s a superpower some founders have. When they are ready to raise the next round, be in Seed-2, Series A, B, C or whatever … they just send out a few emails, and in a week or so, have a few offers and even term sheets.

Across the US, people are quitting their jobs in record numbers. . This year, it’s estimated that approximately one in four people have quit their jobs , and those positions are remaining open for much longer than expected. Countless theories have tried to explain the “Great Resignation” we’re experiencing, but none have managed to pinpoint an exact cause.

You know that sinking feeling. You’ve come up with a winning product strategy, everyone’s on board and energized, and you’re halfway down the path to execution only to have it submarined by something someone convinced your leadership was more strategic! It’s a scenario that’s all too familiar and it exemplifies one of the biggest struggles with individual product strategies.

If you’re a time-strapped marketer, you probably often ask yourself: “Should I spend more time perfecting the written copy or tweaking the visual design of my landing page?” Designing a landing page can be daunting. If it’s not your area of expertise, making your landing page look the part becomes time-consuming and frustrating—even expensive, particularly if you need a designer to do the heavy lifting for you.

Thanks to the pandemic, working from home no longer languishes as a rare option for a few workers. It’s mainstream business practice. Just ask Google, Facebook, Netflix, or the U.S. government: They’re all either delaying office reopenings or shifting to remote or hybrid work. With this work transformation, the desktop is also changing. Decades ago, we used dumb terminals attached to mainframes for corporate work.

About a year ago, I wrote a post on the hub and spoke data model. The idea is that in the future SaaS applications would be built on a single database, instead of each SaaS application writing to its own proprietary database. I was wrong about the catalyst for this hub-and-spoke model. I thought it would be cloud-prem and customers driving SaaS products to use a single database.

Q: Dear SaaStr: How Long Should a CEO Continue Being the Head of Product? Roughly for me, for as long as it’s about a 10-hour a week job. Or often, maybe only up to $3m-$5m in ARR or so. In SaaS at least, founders make two mistakes again and again: First, try to hire a full-time “head of product” once the product gets complex. Once your product has 50–100 workflows, dozens of use cases, 100s or 1000s of customers, etc. … it’s just too much to hack and juggle informally.

What is a microservice? A microservice is an application architecture that takes every application function and puts it in its own service, isolated from the others. These services are loosely coupled and independently deployable. This architecture emerged as a solution to the old monolithic approach to web application development. In monolithic software, everything is built as one unit.

As a product leader with a background in growth, it’s surprising how much what I actually end up working on is product/market fit. Product people should only be focused on growth i.e. connecting people to the value of a product once they’ve confirmed the product is delivering value. So it’s important to have a strong understanding of what product/market fit looks like before investing in growth.

The early days of SEO were like the Wild, Wild West. Blackhat SEO experts were doing everything imaginable to rank their sites on Google. That included keyword stuffing and creating spammy backlinks on a regular basis. Admittedly, for a time, it totally worked. These days, Google’s SERP Algorithm has really cracked down on content quality – and those older SEO hacks have long crumbled to dust.
