Dear SaaStr: What’s The Number One Challenge for Scale-Up Stage Founders? In SaaS, once you have even a few million in ARR, the #1 challenge is recruiting top-tier VPs and building a truly top-tier management team: SaaS products mostly don’t sell themselves. SaaS products get too complex to hack a product roadmap too long.

Q: What’s the number one challenge for scale-up founders? In SaaS, it is recruiting your VPs and management team : SaaS products mostly don’t sell themselves. You can hack managing and finding 1–3 reps yourself, but after that, you really need a VP of Sales. You can’t hack it forever.

But a great head of demand gen (or maybe growth hacking if you are SMB) should be very accretive at even $20k in MRR. More on that here and a great video discussion below: You’ll probably be ready for your first VP of Sales by $1m in ARR. But you’ll need a manager to scale beyond 2. Wait longer?
