Product-led growth (PLG) starts with the end user. And a healthy PLG engine depends on users discovering your product through no- or low-cost channels, including word-of-mouth, organic search, product virality, communities, and marketplaces.But Kyle Poyar of OpenView points out that as PLG companies grow past $10M annual recurring revenue (ARR), your larger accounts start to drive a disproportionate amount of revenue and incremental growth, and these accounts will typically begin their journey with a product interaction before they ever talk to sales. As a result, you'll manage to close larger and larger deals by simply allowing users to opt into a sales-led path or by adopting the product qualified lead (PQL) playbook. So, it's no wonder that PLG companies contemplate introducing an outbound motion.In this episode of Product Led Revenue, Kyle gets into the outbound side in a PLG motion and its benefits. Kyle and our host Breezy Beaumont discuss a new era for PLG, challenges for PLG organizations, and how to handle person email signups.
A growing number of SaaS companies are shifting from sales to product-led growth models. According to the Product-Led Growth Benchmarks 2022 report, 58% of B2B technology companies have a PLG motion in place.But product-led growth, while contributing to efficient growth, can be challenging. If you are moving from a sales model to product-led growth, you not only need to change the mindset of the teams but also adapt the teams to the new model. Although PLG stands for "product-led growth," the product team will have to work with marketing, sales, and sometimes services that will likely be outside your team.In this episode of Product Led Revenue, our host Breezy Beaumont welcomes Partho Ghosh, senior director of product and growth at Hootsuite. Partho and Breezy get into the benefits and challenges of the PLG model. They discuss organizational structure in the PLG model, the difference between PQL and PUQL, and the free and paid plans offered by Hootsuite.

Breezy Beaumont, Head of Growth at Correlated, takes us into the new and noteworthy world of product-led growth this week. Breezy walks us through the essentials of what product-led growth (PLG) is, top strategies in the PLG world, marketing team tactics for PLG cyber companies, and how data looks differently with this go-to-market strategy. Is the secret to tackling the market hidden in product-led growth? Breezy helps us uncover the mystery! Timecoded Guide: [00:00] Introducing the (still relatively new) concept of product-led growth companies [05:38] Implementing PLG go-to-market strategies in the cybersecurity industry [12:29] Breaking through highly competitive industries and being the first to market [20:35] Understanding the product you're marketing and achieving customer success [26:16] Following the journey data takes in a product-led growth company What is product-led growth? Product-led growth, or PLG, has become a buzzword that cybersecurity marketers hear, but rarely do we understand PLG as a go-to-market strategy. If you can go to a website and immediately get started with a product, that is product-led growth. Putting product at the forefront of your company, especially if this is a product-led growth cybersecurity company, changes the roles within your organization and removes many barriers in the sales process. “Product-led growth is a little bit of an umbrella term for a lot of things that people are probably a little bit more familiar with. Basically, it's a way of describing any way that you can go to a website and immediately get started with the product, it's easily accessible to you.” What are some cybersecurity companies or cybersecurity use cases that you've seen work with PLG? Although product-led growth can feel at odds with the cybersecurity industry, Breezy assures us that PLG works for companies in all areas of cyber, including identity management, IoT security, and security ops. While PLG can thrive anywhere, tactics can range from freemium product levels, free trials, or product preview options, all of which encourage a product-forward approach to the sales process. Breezy explains that even product tours are becoming an early element of product-led growth strategy for many cyber companies. “It's all about reducing friction in the buying process, because the buying process today stinks. It especially stinks for people who don't want to talk to people that much. We shouldn't have to put up X amount of dollars before purchasing.” How do you respond to people who say, "I don't want my competition to see my products?" Cybersecurity teaches us to think twice and to act cautiously with our data and information, and cybersecurity companies can embody this mindset as well. Product-led growth can feel like foolishly you're giving away all your assets and information to your competitors, but Breezy explains that your competitors already have access to previews and demos of your product. Instead of fearing your competitors seeing your product, focus on product-led growth as a means to becoming the first in the market. “The competition is fierce. And so, I'd say first of all, your competitors are already seeing your product out there, but second of all, you want to be first in the market. You want to get that market share as quickly as possible.” Do PLG companies have to have an official customer marketing team, or one customer marketing person that's fully in charge of customer marketing? Roles change when an organization shifts from a traditional go-to-market strategy to a product-led growth strategy. Marketing is not exempt from these changes, and instead often acts as a huge part of the sales and revenue processes as result of these changes. Breezy explains that, although we're used to each department having separate data silos and clearly divided roles, the streamlined data approach of product-led growth facilitates collaboration and communication. “One of the big changes that happens in a product-led company is the data that we're working off of, on both the marketing side and across the company. In a lot of product-led companies, the entire revenue team, if not the entire team altogether, all work off of the same dataset.” ---------- Links: Get tickets for our upcoming Cyber Marketing Con 2022.

When people think about product-led growth, they think it's about the product, but customer experience extends far beyond product. Customer experience is one of the most vital aspects of any business, but many companies fall short.

But sales and product-led growth are multipliers of each other, says Ethan Schechter, VP of Sales at Snyk.He adds, ''A product-led growth engine is the number one thing to ensure that your sales team is working with qualified leads because the organic interest that comes from a product-qualified lead is unlike anything you're going to see.''Ethan joined Snyk in their early days and has helped scale it to over 1200+ employees.

In this episode we explore the product-led growth go-to-market motion with Breezy Beaumont, head of growth and marketing at Correlated. It's a SaaS that helps product-led growth companies to find expansion, upsell, cross-sell, and other revenue opportunities based on how people are using their product.If like us, you're trying to distance your marketing from the "fake" MQL, you might consider a product-led growth go-to-market strategy. It's no small change if your product cannot or does not already support free users and provide you with instrumentation and in-app promos to sell users an upgrade. But the benefits are huge. We all know and use one or more PLG applications daily (Slack, LinkedIn, DropBox, Calendly). But can we make it work where we work? If the product was made to support PLG, or can be made to do so, now what?Among the really interesting subjects we explore are:How the pipeline is different for PLG. It's a continuous cycle not linear. And this has benefits beyond the upsell in terms of staying close to your customer.How your organization is different with PLG. Sales, marketing and customer success are now much more integrated and collaborating throughout the customer life cycle.How sales can now be customer and product advocates vs driving people through what she calls a "manufactured" pipeline (love this, btw).And how the old model for predictable revenue has to give way to a more statistical and usage-based view of where and when revenues will be achieved.It's a refreshing take on what we all do for a living.

From Datadog, to Drift, to Dooly, Michelle Pietsch has seen the PLG sales playbook over and over again. She says the most important thing sellers can do, especially in a product-led company, is get to know their product.

Also, Breezy gets Michelle's perspectives on the power of data, pricing, and packaging models.
Product-led growth (PLG) has become one of the most effective ways to grow in SaaS and tech. More and more companies are relying on their products as the main driver to gain customers.

Historically, it's been difficult for sales teams to know how and when to reach out to current users of their product either for conversion or expansion. But, with access to product data, sales teams can be both proactive and reactive at the same time. According to CallRail's VP of Sales, Jason Rozenblat, that's a daily reality for their product-led company. In this episode of the Product Led Revenue podcast, Jason joins host Breezy Beaumont to discuss how a user-driven trial process connects to better conversions, why success must evolve as a definition throughout the company's history, and how serving in a sales role at a product-led company is truly different.
Product-led growth has been revolutionizing B2B and SaaS sales for some time now, especially after the pandemic. And it's working, leading to rapid growth for companies like OneSignal, used by 1.4 million companies around the world.But that rapid change leads to what Josh Wetzel, OneSignal's Chief Revenue Officer, calls "intellectual challenges," some of which are expected, like massive amounts of data, and some of which aren't, like language barriers with new clients you weren't expecting.In this episode of Product Led Revenue, host Breezy Beaumont talks to Josh about OneSignal's response to those challenges and how culture can play a role in meeting them.
