Serving SMB mid-market customers is one thing, but when you go upstream to enterprise sales, everything changes: go-to-market strategy, the sales process, how you structure deals, even how you define customer value. Today's guest, Andrew Casey, has helped scale four SaaS companies: ServiceNow, WalkMe, Lacework, and his current company, Amplitude. At ServiceNow, he worked closely with Snowflake's Mike Scarpelli and Coatue's David Schneider, and he was instrumental in establishing the company's deal desk to support its sales motion. As an operationally focused CFO, he shares a wealth of knowledge on the importance of staying close to the customer, structuring deals that work for both sides, establishing transparency in usage-based pricing, aligning incentives and strategy in sales, the pros and cons of multi-year deals, the problem with auto-renewals and what to do instead, and how to adapt your go-to-market strategy when moving from SMB mid-market to enterprise.—LINKS:Andrew Casey on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-casey-6b14875/Amplitude: https://amplitude.comServiceNow: https://www.servicenow.comCJ on X (@cjgustafson222): https://x.com/cjgustafson222Mostly metrics: http://mostlymetrics.comRELATED EPISODES:Gaining Strategic Advantage in Vertical SaaS With Guidewire's CFO, Jeff Cooper"Steal Your Boss's Job”: Calendly CFO John McCauley on Leadership, Ownership & GrowthThe Largest Software IPO Ever: How Snowflake Still Left Money on the Table —TIMESTAMPS:(00:00) Preview and Intro(02:40) Sponsor – Tropic | NetSuite | Planful | Tabs(08:45) Becoming an Operationally Focused CFO(11:50) Staying Close to the Customer as a CFO(16:37) Sponsor – Rippling Spend | Pulley | MUFG(20:34) Running Towards a Challenging Market at ServiceNow(24:15) How He Established the Deal Desk at ServiceNow(26:13) Structuring a Deal That Works for Both Sides(29:08) Transparency in Usage-Based Pricing(32:39) A Client's “Budget Problem”: Cash or Expense Issue(36:42) Lessons From Building Out the Deal Desk at ServiceNow(40:53) Pros and Cons of Multi-Year Deals(43:57) Auto-Renewals: Do This Instead(46:10) Adapting the Go-to-Market Strategy for Enterprise Sales(55:33) Selling to CIOs Whose Jobs Are at Stake(58:18) What Defines “Enterprise”(59:43) The Most Important Thing To Get Right in Enterprise Sales(1:01:01) Lessons From Andrew's Background in Corporate Finance(1:03:12) The Story of How Andrew Got His Job at ServiceNow(1:07:57) Long-Ass Lightning Round: A Big Mistake(1:10:31) Advice to Younger Self(1:11:17) Finance Software Stack(1:14:47) Craziest Expense Story—SPONSORS:Tropic is an intelligent spend management solution that consolidates your spend data and processes into one unified offering, enabling insights and decisive action.

You can even earn some of the highest yields in the industry—like the 7% or higher yield you can lock in with a Bond Account. Public is a FINRA-registered, SIPC-insured platform that takes your investments as seriously as you do. Fund your account in five minutes or less at public.com/venture and get up to $10,000 when you transfer your old portfolio.All investing involves the risk of loss, including loss of principal. Brokerage services for US-listed, registered securities, options and bonds in a self-directed account are offered by Public Investing, Inc., member FINRA & SIPC. Public Investing offers a High-Yield Cash Account where funds from this account are automatically deposited into partner banks where they earn interest and are eligible for FDIC insurance; Public Investing is not a bank. Cryptocurrency trading services are offered by Bakkt Crypto Solutions, LLC (NMLS ID 1890144), which is licensed to engage in virtual currency business activity by the NYSDFS. Cryptocurrency is highly speculative, involves a high degree of risk, and has the potential for loss of the entire amount of an investment. Cryptocurrency holdings are not protected by the FDIC or SIPC.A Bond Account is a self-directed brokerage account with Public Investing, member FINRA/SIPC. Deposits into this account are used to purchase 10 investment-grade and high-yield bonds. The 7%+ yield is the average, annualized yield to worst (YTW) across all ten bonds in the Bond Account, before fees, as of 5/15/2025. A bond's yield is a function of its market price, which can fluctuate; therefore, a bond's YTW is not “locked in” until the bond is purchased, and your yield at time of purchase may be different from the yield shown here. The “locked in” YTW is not guaranteed; you may receive less than the YTW of the bonds in the Bond Account if you sell any of the bonds before maturity or if the issuer defaults on the bond.

Most shop owners I talk to are focused on the usual things: keeping the machines humming, staying profitable, maybe planning for growth or succession. But what if the real unlock for your shop wasn't more tech or tighter margins—but a completely different way of thinking about why your business exists in the first place? That's what today's episode is about. I sat down with Court Durkalski, CEO of Truline Industries, and honestly, this conversation hit me harder than most. Court runs a $23 million aerospace machining company with 120 employees—and they give away 10% of their gross sales to global charitable causes. Not profits—sales. That level of generosity is unheard of in manufacturing, and yet their quality metrics, delivery performance, and bottom line are world-class. The kicker? That whole culture came from a very personal place, and a journey that includes addiction, near financial collapse, and walking away from a path to ministry. I wanted to understand how a shop like Truline stays so focused, so precise, and so mission-aligned. And what I found is that none of it is accidental. From hiring practices to equipment decisions to the way they manage customer relationships, everything at Truline is built around this core belief that doing great work and doing good in the world aren't at odds—they're actually the same thing. If you're someone who's always thought values should stay separate from business—or maybe you've just never thought about your shop as a force for something bigger—I think this episode will leave you thinking differently. It sure did for me. You will want to hear this episode if you are interested in...

Nick Rose, CFO of Enable, joins CJ to discuss one of the most overlooked yet powerful levers for growth, trust, and alignment in B2B commerce: rebates. They talk about how rebates are often dismissed as accounting clean-up or mistaken for discounts, but they are actually critical pricing incentives that foster long-term relationships. Nick describes how he first came to Enable as a customer and how it helped him uncover more than $7 million in missed rebates. He breaks down how rebates differ from discounts, how they can exceed net profit, and why manual rebate systems are so complex and inaccurate.

They're breaking down exactly what this means, why it's a game-changing evolution in agent collaboration, and how it's going to unleash a new wave of growth, momentum, and shared success for the real estate industry.

The numbers behind growing a scalable real estate business without trading time for dollars. Value, Trust & Authentic Growth Why the new real estate game is about discipline over disruption.

TJ Watt has posted a cryptic message on social media. Now people that cover the Steelers are thinking it may be a bigger deal than we thought. It seems like Watt has an ongoing pissing match with Myles Garrett, so he won't take a penny less. Does Watt deserve to make $40M/year at this point in his career? What should the Steelers do with him? Fans chimed in on what the Steelers should do with TJ Watt. PG columnist Jason Mackey joined the show. Andrew McCutchen didn't get the invite from Pat McAfee last night – the guys think that's a big miss on Pat's part. The guys asked Jason who has the strongest voice in the clubhouse. Jason reacted to the ongoing ‘sell the team' chants as a shot of Bob Nutting. Jason doesn't think anyone expected the start of the Pirates season to be this bad, including the off-the-field drama. The guys brought up the job being done by Travis Williams and why he is coming up way short on his end of business. Jason thinks we are about there for Jack Suwinski being put back on the bench or sent down because he looks ‘completely lost.'
Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show. Steve reiterated that he would re-sign TJ Watt at $40M/year into his mid-30's. Steve hypothesized what a trade would look like for Watt, but he said it's all about the dead money that would be involved in the deal. Steve broke down the play of Shedeur Sanders and if he has traits to make him a special player. The guys asked Steve which teams around the league are getting great results with a non-special QB and how he would rank some of the second tier QB prospects of this class. Steve explained to the guys why he thinks Jalen Milroe got invited to the draft this year. Is the '26 QB class that much better than the '25 class? Steve doesn't think it's a guarantee that Arch Manning declares for the '26 draft. Steve is always in the mind of drafting a QB because it's important to take shots. Steve likes all of the big DL prospects in this class that could be available at 21st overall.
Shedeur Sanders has wrapped up his visit with the Steelers. He is now Poni's preferred pick in 2 weeks. But he wants them to groom the kid to start from Day 1, which doesn't happen with Aaron Rodgers in the fold. How does that relationship work if it comes together? That being said, there are a lot of reasons to be skeptical of this working out. Steve Palazzolo from the 33rd Team joined the show.

I built a $1.3M real estate portfolio without banks, loans, or credit—and here's exactly how I did it. In this video, I break down the three properties I bought using creative financing—no banks, no credit checks, and in some cases, no money down.
