In episode #337 of SaaS Metrics School, Ben breaks down why software revenue categorization is a foundational requirement for strong finance, accounting, and SaaS metrics. He explains the core revenue types every SaaS, AI, or software company should separate on their P&L—and why commingling revenue creates downstream issues in MRR tracking, retention metrics, forecasting, and company valuation. Ben walks through the major recurring and non-recurring revenue categories, then shows how clean revenue segmentation enables accurate MRR schedules, retention analysis, cash flow forecasting, and smoother due diligence with investors and acquirers. What You'll Learn The core revenue categories every SaaS or AI company should clearly define The difference between subscription, usage, overage, services, managed services, and hardware revenue Why overages must be separated at both the SKU and general ledger level How revenue categorization feeds directly into MRR schedules and waterfalls Why recurring and variable revenue must be forecasted differently How clean revenue data improves retention metrics and go-to-market efficiency analysis Why investors and acquirers expect revenue clarity during fundraising and due diligence Why It Matters Accurate MRR and ARR tracking depends on clearly defined revenue streams Retention metrics (GRR and NRR) break when revenue types are mixed together Revenue forecasting and financial modeling require different assumptions by revenue type Cash flow forecasting becomes unreliable without segmented recurring revenue data Company valuation is directly impacted by the perceived quality of recurring revenue Investors and acquirers expect detailed revenue schedules during fundraising and due diligence Strong financial systems and accounting discipline reduce friction in audits and exits Resources Mentioned Ben's SaaS revenue hierarchy framework: https://www.thesaascfo.com/the-saas-revenue-hierarchy-why-defining-your-revenue-streams-matter/ SaaS Metrics course at The SaaS Academy: https://www.thesaasacademy.com/the-saas-metrics-foundation

In this episode, Dave and Dharm welcome back Ziad Nassar, Deputy CEO of Huspy, one year after his first appearance on the show. And what a difference a year makes. Ziad shares how Huspy has evolved from a UAE-based mortgage innovator into one of the fastest-scaling proptechs in EMEA, now active across the UAE and Spain with expansion under way in Saudi Arabia. Backed by a US $59 million Series B round led by Balderton Capital, Huspy is pursuing an ambitious mission: empowering the people who serve homebuyers and sellers. The conversation explores: Why Huspy focuses on enabling agents and mortgage brokers—the professionals closest to homebuyers and sellers—through technology, training, and fairer rewards. The logic behind expanding to Spain, and the company's disciplined playbook for entering new markets. How AI is transforming property discovery and agent productivity—from natural-language search (“find me a Georgian-style home near London with a vet nearby”) to smart tools that augment rather than replace human expertise. The importance of focus and discipline in scaling a startup, and the lessons Huspy has learned from trial, error, and relentless iteration. Why PropTech remains one of the least-disrupted global industries, and how human experience, data, and automation can finally start to change that. Ziad's candour and passion make this a compelling listen—an honest look at what it takes to modernise real estate, balance technology with trust, and build for the people who make the housing market work.

Host Matt Burgess talks with Dr. Rachel Mills, a genetic counsellor and educator, about her PhD work on professional identity, how conferences and mentorship shape early-career genetic counsellors, and the changing roles of teaching, research and advocacy in the field.

In this episode, Savannah gushes to Julie about the various streaming shows and series she is watching. From Netflix's 'Wayward' to 'K-Pop Demon Hunters', to Amazon Prime's 'Gen V', Savannah and Julie talk about how evolved 'queer-coded' storytelling has become over the years. From a transman being a character in a story where their gender identification has nothing to do with the series, to taking a superhero trait of gender-swapping as having issues and problems far outside the scope of gender identity, to a trio of demon-fighting pop star hunters with struggles of being authentic completely outside the scope of queerdom, we are discovering that modern storytelling doesn't have to hit us over the head with "here is a queer subplot I want you to focus on" in order to be successful and poignant.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

In this episode, Dave and Dharm sit down with Ben Goldin, CEO and Founder of Plumery, to explore how digital banking needs to evolve beyond its legacy foundations. With more than two decades in banking technology — including senior roles at Mambu and Backbase — Ben shares his deep insights into what's broken in today's digital banking architectures and how Plumery is reimagining them for a composable, experience-led future. The conversation covers: Why banks must decouple from monolithic core systems to deliver genuine digital experiences. How real-time, purpose-built data models are transforming customer personalisation. The cultural and organisational shifts required for banks to think like digital product companies, not siloed institutions. The limits, and the promise, of AI in financial services, including why understanding its stochastic nature is essential. A candid discussion on regulation, with Ben calling for regulators to move from policing to proactive collaboration, accelerating innovation safely. Ben also explains why the next wave of banking will blend lifestyle, financial, and ecosystem services, and why success will belong to those who can bridge technology, experience, and trust. A must-listen for anyone interested in the future of banking architecture, digital transformation, and the human side of innovation.

In this episode, Savannah shares with Julie her growing fear and concern about the state of the American social and political fronts as it applies to multitudes of gender-expansive people, their families, and LGBTQ+ allies. When outspoken opponents call for institutionalization of people in the trans or gay communities as mentally ill, it takes fortitude and resilience to continue to show up in the world for oneself and on behalf of others in the shared struggle.-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“. While both focus on the male-to-female (mtf) crossdresser, “Defining a New Normal” delves into crossdressing and relationships and “Discovering Your True Identity” looks at the individual crossdressing journey.

In this episode, Julie tells Savannah all about the fallacies of women's fashion and how the sizing conventions between all the various online, retail, and high-end fashion designers seldom have a universal standard. Trying on a LARGE for one designer may seem like a size 10, but can also be an ego killer. Conversely, our existing women's fashion sizing ego can also cause us emotional stress. Find out how to leave the ego at the dressing room doors and find success in the dress that fits!-----SAVANNAH HAUK is the author of “Living with Crossdressing: Defining a New Normal” and “Living with Crossdressing: Discovering your True Identity“.

Was Joseph Smith a mystic? Searching for the term ‘mysticism' on the Church website yields, “See: False Doctrine, Sorcery, Superstitions; Traditions of Men.” So it's no wonder many church members haven't thought much about mysticism—the role it may have played in Joseph's experience, or how it might inform their own everyday lives or transform their spiritual practices. But poet Kathryn Knight Sonntag describes it differently: “Trusting the groundless ground, trusting that the darkness or the chaos or the unknown place actually is deeply full of knowing and love and purpose. And that it's ultimately the path into apotheosis. It's ultimately where we begin that journey of becoming divine.” In Episode 241, Kathryn joins Susan and Cynthia to explore the concept of mysticism. What might it look like for Latter-day Saints to step off the prescribed map and onto the sacred ground of our own lives in pursuit of personal encounters with God?
