Hey Midnighters,This week, The Midnight Project goes deeper with a special ADE edition guest mix by Stijn Vandensande, exclusively on DI.FM and podcasting platforms.For this one, Stijn delivered a tightly crafted 60-minute journey filled with unreleased material, personal edits, and raw, rolling techno straight from his own studio and label. From the first drop, it's clear you're in the hands of a producer who knows exactly how to control the room, tension, groove, and release in perfect balance.Expect hypnotic rhythms, deep layers, and that unmistakable underground pulse that's made Stijn one of the rising names to watch during Amsterdam Dance Event. It's a true statement mix, made for long nights, early mornings, and everything in between.Whether you're catching it on the move or locked in with your headphones, this is one you'll want to play loud.
Hij groeide op als links kind op een rechtse school met vrienden uit VVD-gezinnen. „Bij het corps was ik de enige van de 150 die links van D66 stemde.” Zijn beste vriend Stijn, een mkb'er, stemt VVD. „Omdat dat zogenaamd de partij is van de hardwerkende Nederlander,” zegt Simon van Teutem. „Maar dat is onzin. Ik wilde de VVD ontmaskeren.” Volgens hem gebruikt de VVD liberale taal, maar ondermijnt ze het liberalisme van binnenuit. „Ze zeggen: ik sta aan jouw kant. Maar wiens kant? De vrijheid van de een betekent vaak de onvrijheid van de ander.”Volgens Van Teutem is liberalisme geen vastomlijnd begrip, maar „een strijd, is een levend idee dat zichzelf steeds weer opnieuw uitvindt. Wat ik heb proberen te doen is zeggen: dit is liberalisme voor mij. En dat is mijn inbreng voor het debat over wat het liberalisme zou moeten zijn.” Zijn versie draait om waarheid, vooruitgang, optimisme voor de toekomst, bescherming van minderheden en het idee dat hard werken moet lonen. Zijn frustratie is: „De VVD claimt die waarden, maar maakt ze niet waar."Heeft u vragen, suggesties of ideeën over onze journalistiek?

A release which displays the more experimental side of his music is scheduled for spring 2026. -- FACETS Podcast Episode 115: Stijn Vanmarsenille SC: https://soundcloud.com/stijnvanmarsenille IG: https://www.instagram.com/stijnvanmarsenille
Is moving fast the antidote to marketing entropy?AI gives you volume and speed, then drowns you in noise. Great ideas get sanded down by feedback loops, testing for testing's sake, and a few too many opinions. Momentum fades, quality slips, and the window closes. The fix is not more polish. It is shipping sooner. In Episode 91 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and Kalungi founder Stijn Hendrikse unpack why speed protects signal, what “ship” means in SaaS today, and how the 72-hour rule forces scope that actually gets done. You'll hear how to gather real signal first, then publish fast enough to avoid dilution and keep learning tight. You'll leave with a simple cadence you can run next week: slow down to find signal, cut the work to what fits in 72 hours, ship, invite reactions, repeat. It is not fancy. It works. Critical topics in this episodeSpeed vs dilution, why waiting multiplies noise. The 72-hour rule, cut scope and keep momentum. What “shipping” means now, MVPs and tight learning loops. Find signal first, then push hard on execution. Hiring in the AI era, T-shaped teams and investigative writers. A quick note on Kalungi.ai and applying this at early stage. By the end, you'll see speed as a safeguard for signal, not a shortcut. And you'll know how to use it without losing quality.Resources shared in this episode:3 traits of an effective marketing leaderThe 4 SaaS Marketing Leadership Maturity Stages ExplainedLooking for a Startup Marketing Agency?

Wat als psychoses ons niet alleen iets vertellen over het individu, maar ook over hoe onze samenleving omgaat met geestelijke gezondheid? In deze aflevering gaan we in gesprek met Prof. Stijn Vanheule, hoogleraar klinische psychologie aan de UGent en bezieler van een vernieuwende blauwdruk voor de geestelijke gezondheidszorg van de toekomst. Vanheule vertrekt vanuit de meest radicale vormen van ontwrichting, psychoses, om te pleiten voor een systeem dat niet enkel focust op symptoombestrijding, maar op echte verbinding. Een geestelijke gezondheidszorg waar de mens primeert boven het protocol, en waar ook het systeem rond de patiënt, familie, context, omgeving, gehoord wordt. We spreken over: – de schrijnende blinde vlekken in het huidige zorgmodel – hoe families vaak vergeten worden voor, tijdens én na een GGZ-traject – waarom we moeten durven denken voorbij diagnoses – en hoe we kunnen bouwen aan een menselijker mentaal zorgsysteem met ruimte voor luisteren, context en samenwerking. Met krachtige verhalen uit de praktijk laat Stijn zien wat er vandaag misloopt, én hoe het anders kan. Een aflevering voor zorgverleners, beleidsmakers, naasten, ervaringsdeskundigen, en iedereen die gelooft dat zorg altijd vertrekt vanuit menselijkheid. Deze podcast kwam tot stand in samenwerking het met het PSYNC-consortium ‘Samen-Werken voor Mentale Gezondheid' en met steun van het UGent maatschappelijk valorisatiefonds.

When we think of the term "medicine," one of the symbols that comes to mind is the stethoscope. Its use in almost every physical examination by healthcare providers makes it one of the most iconic and widely recognized medical devices. Despite the emergence of digital technologies and the first electronic stethoscopes, their operating principle and design still rely heavily on the patent filed by Dr. David Littmann in the 1960s. But in the era of miniaturization and artificial intelligence, there is a reason to believe that the stethoscope is ripe for a true transformation. Among those who share this opinion are Lapsi Health and the team of Diana van Stijn. Inspired by her experience as a pediatrician and the central role of body sounds in her profession, Diana envisions a new kind of stethoscope—without tubing, fitting in the palm of a hand, and leveraging the latest technological advancements to better equip physicians. This vision gave birth to Keikku, a next-generation digital stethoscope. Beyond rethinking the format and use of the stethoscope for doctors, Diana and her colleagues imagine a future where patients can use it themselves, paving the way for continuous auscultation. In this episode, we explore how Diana and her team are turning this vision into reality, and what it could mean for the prevention, detection, and monitoring of diseases, extending far beyond pediatrics. With humor and enthusiasm, Diana also shares a few secrets about her approach to balancing clinical practice, motherhood, and entrepreneurship in healthcare! Timeline: 00:00:00 - Diana's background as a Pediatrician, startup Co-Founder, and former National Team Swimmer 00:11:10 - The role of body sounds in medicine 00:15:08 - Early ideas on disrupting traditional stethoscopes 00:22:21 - Building Keikku, a portable, intuitive, and radically modern stethoscope 00:26:43 - Incorporating AI in the interpretation of body sounds 00:30:50 - Moving toward continuous auscultation and getting Keikku into the hands of patients What we also talked about with Diana: Shavini Fernando MedTech World Cirque du Soleil Jhonatan Bringas Dimitriades Magnetic Resonance Imaging Computed Tomography As Diana mentioned during the episode, you can learn more about Keikku here and the other devices in Lapsi Health's pipeline via their official website. To dive further into some of the topics mentioned in the episode, Diana recommends reading Intelligence-Based Medicine: Artificial Intelligence and Human Cognition in Clinical Medicine and Healthcare by Anthony C. Chang and the article published on JMIR Publications that she co-authored, Promises, Pitfalls, and Clinical Applications of Artificial Intelligence in Pediatrics by Bhargava H. et al.

Ohja, en hij vond het een goed idee om tijdens de opnames een boom om te zagen. Jeppe zoekt de diepte op en vraagt wat zij zouden meenemen als ze maar één ding mochten kiezen: praktische troost of spirituele verlichting? En alsof dat nog niet genoeg is, maakt Tobi verse bananenbenjees, rechtstreeks uit de frituur. Was dat stiekem zijn geheime wapen tijdens Expeditie?

Episode 97 features a conversation with Stijn Fawkes, a Dutch-born Germanic pagan, leader of the Tribe of the Greyhorn Pagans, and host of the Greyhorn Pagans Podcast. Stijn brings his passion for European pagan traditions, alternative history, and the power of story in shaping our collective consciousness.At the heart of our conversation is the great question of Tartaria. Was there truly a lost civilization whose memory has been buried through mudfloods, timeline deceptions, and the rewriting of history? Together we examine how the World's Fairs, ancient myths, and suppressed knowledge may point toward a deeper mystery about humanity's past.From Arthurian legends and tribal traditions to crop circles, cymatics, and the wisdom of the old gods, this dialogue is a journey into both the seen and unseen forces that shape our world. Stijn shares insights on community resilience, pagan revival, and the role of story in reclaiming our connection to the sacred.Connect with Stijn and the Greyhorn Pagans: greyhornpagans.comhttps://t.me/greyhornpagans https://www.instagram.com/greyhornpaganshttps://x.com/GreyhornPodcastGreyhorn Pagans podcast:https://open.spreaker.com/KBNzA3KFnoiHMFaQ7 https://youtube.com/@stijnfawkes

In Hongarije groeit de verontwaardiging over het landgoed van Viktor Orbán. Een parlementslid is naar binnen geglipt en laat met video's zien dat het luxer is dan de premier zelf doet voorkomen. Beschuldigingen van corruptie vinden steeds meer weerklank, met als gevolg dat Orbán al een paar maanden niet meer bovenaan in de peilingen staat. Wat de politieke implicaties zijn van de onthulling vertelt NRC-correspondent Mark Middel. (09:06) Hoe Reform UK het Britse immigratiedebat bepaalt Operation Restoring Justice, zo noemt de radicaal-rechtse partij Reform UK haar plannen om alle asielzoekers te deporteren. Voorman Nigel Farage presenteerde zijn ideeën deze week in een onrustige tijd voor het VK: door het hele land waren protesten bij hotels die asielzoekers huisvesten. Profiteert Reform UK van de hoogoplopende gemoederen? En welk antwoord heeft de regerende Labourpartij onder premier Keir Starmer op dit alles? Te gast is Stijn van Kessel, politicoloog verbonden aan de Queen Mary universiteit in Londen. Presentatie: Sophie Derkzen
Is AI making your marketing sharper—or just noisier?AI has supercharged how fast we can create. Blogs, campaigns, designs—what once took weeks now takes hours. But speed comes with a catch. When everything is generated faster and in higher volume, clarity often gets lost. Signal turns into noise. The real message gets buried.In Episode 89 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and Kalungi founder Stijn Hendrikse break down a key idea from Stijn's new book Syntropy: why AI accelerates entropy in marketing, and how modern teams can counteract it by becoming creators of syntropy—clarity, meaning, and signal that cuts through.You'll hear what this shift means for marketers at every level, and why the skills that matter most today aren't technical execution, but judgment, storytelling, and the ability to translate raw data into insight.Critical topics in this episodeEntropy vs Syntropy: Why AI often multiplies noise instead of clarity, and what marketers can do about it.The new marketing roles: From the Syntropic Sculptor (designer) to the Syntropic Scribe (writer), and why their value now lies beyond rule-following.The STOP method: A practical way to standardize, templatize, optimize, and productize marketing work.The future CMO: Why the “Syntropy Navigator” becomes the most important role in an AI-enabled marketing team.Career resilience: How marketers can stay relevant by doubling down on the human skills AI can't replace.By the end, you'll have a sharper lens on AI's role in marketing: a powerful accelerator, but one that needs human judgment to stay on course.Resources shared in this episode:3 traits of an effective marketing leaderThe 4 SaaS Marketing Leadership Maturity Stages ExplainedLooking for a Startup Marketing Agency?

Is founder-led growth helping or holding you back?Early wins often come straight from the founder's voice. Nobody knows the problem better, or tells the story with more passion. That credibility is what gets the first customers to sign, keeps them close, and often carries a young company through its earliest deals. But founder-led growth has limits. Time runs out. Markets expand. What worked at $1M ARR may stall out at $15M.In Episode 89 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and Kalungi founder Stijn Hendrikse unpack both sides of founder-led growth: why it's such a powerful accelerator in the beginning, and why it can quietly become a ceiling if companies don't evolve.You'll hear how to recognize the signs that your business is over-reliant on the founder, and what founders, teams, and investors can do to keep growth compounding even as the company matures.Critical topics in this episodeWhy founder-led growth works: The credibility, subject matter expertise, and customer intimacy that early adopters can't resist.Where it breaks: The hidden ceiling that appears when everything still flows through the founder.Transition challenges: Letting go of sales, messaging, and culture without losing the magic.Investor view: How search funds and acquirers spot businesses that need to move past the founder model.The Kalungi story: What happened when Stijn stepped away, and how Brian navigated the shift to a broader team-led approach.Amplifying the founder's voice: Ways to scale thought leadership without burning out the founder.By the end, you'll see founder-led growth for what it is: a launchpad, not a permanent operating model. And you'll walk away with sharper instincts for when to double down on the founder's voice—and when it's time to build beyond it.

Is your product really ready to sell itself?Plenty of founders spot Slack, Loom, or Canva and claim, “We'll just go product-led.” The idea feels neat. No big sales team. Faster cycles. Viral growth. Yet Product-led Growth only works when the product already clears tough hurdles for ease, onboarding, and unmistakable value. Miss those, and momentum never starts.In Episode 88 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf sits down with long-time CMO Stijn Hendrikse to explore why early teams often overrate PLG—and how investors can identify the warning signs before wiring funds.You'll hear hands-on ways to test whether a product can truly pull in its own demand, along with the questions VCs should ask to be sure the numbers make sense.Critical topics in this episodeThe appeal and the reality of PLG: Why founders romanticize the model and where hidden costs creep in.A “10×” rule for product-market fit: Milestones that must scale from tens to thousands before PLG is viable.Metrics investors must see: Value moments and pay–stay–refer ratios (share of users who pay, stick around, and invite others) needed when ARPU is small.Keeping costs in check: How careless spending on ads, onboarding, or extras can turn a lean approach into a cash fire.Mixing self-serve with sales: When a small sales touch helps—start small, then grow each account.Using new capital wisely: Deepening the winning niche instead of chasing every shiny segment.By the end, you'll know how to vet a PLG claim—whether you're shipping code or writing checks. Get ready to rethink the checklist for PLG readiness and to ask sharper questions before betting on a self-service vision.

We explore the difference between true, rooted pagan traditions and the often misunderstood or commercialized New Age movements.

In september 2024 verscheen ‘Als de zon valt', het debuut van schrijver en programmamaker Stijn de Vries. In deze intieme coming-of-age-roman volgen we Alex en Omar, twee jongens die op de middelbare school in elkaar een toevlucht vinden — terwijl ze worstelen met hun identiteit, verlangens en de buitenwereld. Het boek is geïnspireerd op De Vries' eigen ervaringen met het verbergen van zijn geaardheid, en werpt een zachte, soms rauwe blik op opgroeien, verdoven en het zoeken naar geluk.

Weten Bas en Nina te ontsnappen uit de studio voordat het weekend begint? Dat is de vraag tijdens deze Schaal van Hebben, waarin de Nuki Smart Lock Pro besproken wordt. Het slimme slot van Oostenrijkse makelij is een mooi simplistische knop die over je huidige sleutel en slot heen gaat. Geen vervanging van de cilinder, maar werkt dat ook zoals je wil?

S4:E178 First the notable In Venture for the past week and then Part 2 of my series on Robotics and AI. I'll be Talking With Stijn Van de Velde, Founder and CEO of Drobot, an innovative yet simple mobile Co-Bots-as-a-Service industrial solution to the Find & Fetch problem for tools, parts, inspection and more. They are leveraging existing Real-Time Locating Systems (RTLS) to on-board their Co-bots in as little as one day and using reinforcement learning to fine tune tasks and navigation. Think of them as a shop assistant that will do the walking, Finding and Fetching for a high value worker who can now spend that 25% of their time wasted on human Finding & Fetching to focus on their skilled tasks that require human effort.

After analyzing dozens of software company acquisitions and scaling teams at Microsoft, Stijn Hendrikse has identified the specific patterns that separate companies achieving explosive growth from those that plateau at $5-10M ARR. In this conversation, Wes Bush sits down with Stijn, who breaks down the T2D3 framework (Triple, Triple, Double, Double, Double) - not as a theoretical model, but as a practical roadmap he's seen work across his PE portfolio and enterprise scaling experience. This isn't about growth hacking tactics. But it's about understanding that each stage of rapid scaling requires completely different strategic muscles. The discussion reveals why most founders fail at T2D3 by trying to solve the right problems at the wrong time, how to navigate the brutal transition from startup agility to enterprise execution, and the counterintuitive reality that people - not product or market - become your primary growth constraint after $20M ARR. Key Highlights: 01:27: The T2D3 framework decoded 13:56: Why chasing new customers kills growth 17:51: The muscle-building phase that breaks most companies 24:40: The people scaling crisis 47:19: The founder bottleneck Learn more about Stijn's work: T2D3 Book Kalungi - B2B SaaS Marketing Agency Connect with Stijn on LinkedIn
AI is rewriting the rules for marketing roles—and the expectations that come with them. In episode 88 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, Brian Graf and Stijn Hendrikse dig into how job descriptions, hiring, and performance standards are shifting as AI becomes a core part of every marketer's toolkit.What you'll learn:Why activity-based job descriptions are outdated, and why outcomes and ownership matter more than everThe new skills that set marketers apart—like prompt engineering, mastering AI tools, and delivering a high signal-to-noise ratio in your workHow the definition of “quality” has changed, and why B+ work is no longer enough when everyone has access to the same AI-powered shortcutsThe idea that every hire is now a “team of one” backed by powerful AI, and what that means for productivity and accountabilityHow to update your job descriptions and interviews to focus on creativity, critical thinking, and the ability to drive real business results—not just outputWhy testing, feedback, and iteration are now table stakes, and why marketers need to use their extra time for deeper work, not just more workYou'll hear practical examples for content marketing roles, tips for raising the bar on quality, and a candid look at how reputation and professional equity are evolving in the age of AI. The conversation is honest, sometimes a bit unfinished, and full of real-world perspective from two leaders who've seen the shift up close.

Onze 2de show van de Parking Tour bracht ons naar een uitverkocht Depot in het prachtige Leuven. Radiomaker Stijn Van de Voorde kwam is een van onze favoriete gasten ook al beseft hij dat zelf niet, denken we en we waren erg blij dat hij zijn Video Killed The Videostar theatershow kwam voorstellen. Een show waarin hij op hilarische wijze de geschiedenis van de videoclip fileert. Afsluiten werd er gedaan met de enige echte Natalia; zonder twijfel één van de meest charismatische zangeressen die er in ons land rondlopen. Het verhaal van Natalia Druyts mocht dan wel bekend zijn, toch blij dat we in deze live ook een andere en gevoelige kant hebben mogen zien. En die verhalen over Lionel Ritchie vergeten we nooit meer. Een heel fijne avond dus met 2 heel straffe mensen. EnjoyZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Are you pricing your AI software correctly?Whether you're trying to attract early users to a new AI SaaS offering or rethinking your model to scale an established product, you have to choose the right pricing model. If you pick the right one for your stage and audience, you'll avoid churn risks and gain a new strategic tool to drive growth. In Episode 85 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and guest CMO Antoine Vial break down the major pricing models emerging in the AI-driven SaaS space – from traditional seat-based subscriptions to usage-based and outcome/value-based pricing.You'll learn how to align your pricing with your ideal customer profile and overall go-to-market strategy, ensuring your pricing not only generates revenue but also reinforces the value of your AI-powered solution.Here are the episode's critical subjects:Why pricing is a critical differentiator in the AI SaaS market: How the explosion of AI startups has made pricing strategy a key way to signal value and stand out in a crowded field.Pros and cons of key pricing models: An in-depth look at seat/subscription pricing vs. usage-based pricing vs. value-based (outcome-based) pricing – including their benefits (e.g. predictability vs. flexibility) and potential downsides (like cost unpredictability or complexity).Hybrid pricing strategies in action: How combining models (for example, a base subscription plus usage-based add-ons or credits) can balance stable revenue with customer flexibility, and why this hybrid approach is popular for many AI-powered tools.When to use each model based on growth stage: Guidance on matching your pricing strategy to your company's maturity – from keeping it simple at the MVP stage to reduce friction, to moving toward value-based pricing once you have product-market fit and proven outcomes.Aligning pricing with your ideal customer profile: The importance of understanding your target audience's expectations and industry norms (e.g. are they used to pay-per-use or prefer flat rates?) and tailoring your pricing model to meet those expectations and maximize adoption.Using pricing to build credibility and trust: How a well-designed pricing scheme can serve as a credibility signal – for instance, value-based pricing demonstrates confidence in your product's ROI – and why transparency (like free tiers or clear pricing pages) can lower barriers for new users.Common pitfalls to avoid in pricing an AI product: Insights on mistakes SaaS companies make, such as overcomplicating pricing too early or misaligning price with value, and how to iterate and test your pricing safely as you learn from customer behavior.Get ready to explore which pricing strategies work best at different stages of a company's growth and product maturity -- information that's applicable to early-stage startups and scale-ups alike. Certain approaches (like hybrid usage models or value-based pricing) can build credibility and trust with customers, while others can create churn risk if misaligned with customer expectations.B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks is one of the most respected voices in the SaaS industry.

With over 14,000 new AI startups in the past few years and nearly every software tool now adding “AI” to its messaging, how can your AI-powered SaaS product stand out? In Episode 84 of BSMS Marketing Snacks, host Brian Graf and special guest CMO Antoine Vial (fractional CMO for 20+ SaaS companies) explore why technical features alone aren't enough to win customers during the AI gold rush. You need to craft messaging around the real outcomes and value you deliver. They use real examples (like how one startup niched down with “personalization at scale” for a specific audience before broadening out) to illustrate effective go-to-market tactics. You'll hear about emerging trends: from new pricing models in an AI-first era to booming verticals like customer support, sales automation, analytics, cybersecurity, and more.This episode covers:Differentiating in a Saturated AI Market: Why the explosion of AI startups makes clear positioning more important than ever, and how to avoid getting lost in a sea of “AI-powered” claims.Outcome-Focused Positioning: How to move beyond bragging about algorithms and instead highlight the concrete business outcomes and “jobs-to-be-done” your product delivers for customers.The Power of Niche & Early Adopters: A playbook for niching down – targeting a specific vertical or problem first – to gain traction and product-market fit (and how companies like Clay used this strategy to build momentum).Evolving Your Go-to-Market Strategy: Tips on identifying your ideal early adopters, refining your messaging for that subsegment, then expanding thoughtfully once you've established a foothold.Emerging Pricing Models for AI SaaS: An overview of pricing trends – from traditional subscriptions and tiered plans to usage-based “credit” models and value-based pricing – and how these choices support (or hinder) your positioning.Industry Trends & Examples: Insights into key AI-driven verticals (from AI voice agents in customer service to AI coding assistants) and what's helping the winners in those niches break through the noise.Cutting Through Hype to Drive Adoption: Why simply having AI isn't a strategy, and practical advice for founders on communicating your unique value so customers understand why your solution matters to them.For B2B SaaS founders and marketing leaders driving companies above $2M ARR, this conversation is a masterclass in standing out and scaling up in the AI era. As your company grows, the stakes of positioning only get higher – especially when you're competing in a hot space with well-funded entrants and legacy players all touting AI. Episode 84 arms you with expert perspectives on sharpening your value proposition and go-to-market focus. You can refine your messaging, target the right niche audiences, and align your pricing with value – all of which are crucial to accelerating growth beyond the $2M mark. Make sure your AI-powered product isn't just another face in the crowd, but a clearly differentiated solution poised for long-term success.B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks is one of the most respected voices in the SaaS industry.

When economic and market turbulence strikes without warning, SaaS founders and marketers naturally start to wonder... should we cut marketing budget, pivot our message, or hold the line? In Episode 83 of B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks, co-hosts Brian Graf and Stijn Hendrikse explore how B2B SaaS companies can not only survive but thrive when the economy takes a dip. You'll hear why maintaining focus on customer value is more important than ever, and how to avoid knee-jerk reactions that can hurt long-term growth. Here's what you'll learn:Why value beats panic pricing: How to double down on real customer value and practice value-based pricing instead of slashing prices or entering a race to the bottom, ensuring your offering remains essential even as budgets tighten.Adapting your ICP and personas: How to re-evaluate your Ideal Customer Profile in a downturn – identifying which segments of your market still have budget or greater need for your solution – and adjusting your buyer personas (e.g. addressing newly empowered CFOs) to align with shifting priorities.Retention and expansion first: Why it's crucial to prioritize customer retention and expansion over pure new customer acquisition during a recession. Learn ways to strengthen customer success, keep your existing clients happy, and grow revenue from your install base so you protect your ARR.Smart budget optimization: Guidance on trimming the fat in your marketing spend without killing your growth engine. Discover how to audit your channels and CAC, cut the underperforming tactics, and double down on the efficient strategies so your go-to-market stays lean and effective.Flexible pricing & “survivor” offers: Creative strategies to help customers stay on board. This includes shifting to usage-based or monthly pricing options, offering more flexible payment terms, or even introducing a limited-time “survivor package” – a pared-down, high-ROI product tier designed to prevent churn and attract budget-conscious buyers from less flexible competitors.Pivoting your content strategy: How to tweak your marketing messaging and content in tough times. Our hosts share why thought leadership alone isn't enough in a downturn – and how creating practical “survival” guides, checklists, and playbooks for your audience can build trust and relevance. (Spoiler alert... help your champions justify your product internally by focusing on immediate execution and ROI, not just big ideas.)Rather than resorting to fear-driven cuts, you'll learn how to strategically adjust your approach – protecting the customer base you've worked hard to build and seizing opportunities that competitors might miss. Brian and Stijn's advice will help you keep your growth engine running strong (even on a leaner budget), align your product and messaging with what customers need right now, and ultimately come out of the downturn with a healthier, more focused business.
