The answer is... all of the above.
In this guide I've enumerated 17 key elements of Customer Success for SaaS companies. I hope it helps you reach your goals.

Zeb Evans, ClickUp. From $0 to $20M ARR in 2 Years: Bootstrapping to Natural ...
The document discusses the differences between natural product-market fit (NPMF) and artificial product-market fit (APMF). It notes that NPMF is achieved through bootstrapping, winning organic users, listening to feedback, and iterating quickly. In contrast, APMF is achieved through buying growth, which can lead to addiction and lack of long term viability. The document advises that after achieving NPMF through bootstrapping, companies should continue listening to feedback to further improve their product.
Building a Repeatable, Scalable & Profitable Growth Process
The document discusses optimizing the sales funnel for SaaS startups. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the buyer's perspective and journey. The key points covered are:
1) The sales funnel should be designed around the buyer's process, not the vendor's solutions. It is important to understand buyer personas and map the funnel steps to their evaluation process.
2) Friction points in the funnel like long delays or steps requiring other people can drastically reduce conversion. These points should be identified and removed or simplified when possible.
3) The goal is to create a "wow moment" or motivation for the buyer to continue engaging as early as possible. This may require redesigning trial experiences to quickly
Optimize Your Funnel By Getting Inside Your Buyer's Head
Part of finding product/market fit is turning early wins into repeatable, scalable, and profitable sales. In this talk given as part of the Heavybit speaker series, I discuss how to shorten the time to customer conversion from trials, freemium and open source products.

This document discusses consumption-based business models and compensation plans for sales representatives. It begins by explaining the differences between perpetual licensing, subscription-based SaaS, and usage-based "consumption" pricing models. It then discusses how consumption requires rethinking sales, customer success, and product roles. The document provides several examples of compensation plans that measure representatives based on units, gross usage, incremental ARR, and commitments. It emphasizes starting with the desired sales behaviors and measuring representatives on factors within their control.

Decoding the KPI Kaleidoscope with Sandfox Advisors
Metrics are important to investors because they provide visibility into a SaaS company's revenue growth, sales efficiency, and customer retention. Key metrics include monthly recurring revenue/annual recurring revenue to measure topline growth, revenue churn to understand customer retention, and customer acquisition cost and lifetime value to assess the efficiency and profitability of the growth strategy. Maintaining high growth, strong sales efficiency through a favorable magic number ratio above 1, and low revenue churn are positive signs for investors.
5 metrics to strengthen your multichannel sales strategy
For many eCommerce companies, measuring multichannel sales performance is a challenge. And as your organisation expands to new sales channels like marketplaces, your own brand web stores, and social commerce channels, the complexity for measuring their performance increases.
So, you may end up being confused on which KPIs to track, or end up tracking every known KPI out there. To avoid this, we have listed some of the most prominent KPIs that can help you critically analyse your multichannel sales strategy:
1. Wall Street highly values subscription businesses and places a premium on those with high growth and efficient growth, as measured by metrics like growth efficiency index (GEI).
2. The two main levers companies can optimize to improve their market potential are efficient growth and net retention rate. Efficient growth focuses on aligning teams and processes around maximizing annual recurring revenue, while net retention rate measures how well a company retains and expands revenue from existing customers.
3. Companies should optimize these levers by executing strategies to land new customers and expand revenue from existing ones through upsells and add-ons, while minimizing churn, ensuring successful implementations, and engaging customers.
SaaS/subscription businesses are much more complex than traditional businesses, and SaaS performance cannot be measured in the same way as traditional businesses are measured. Based on a talk given at the SaaStr Annual Conference in San Francisco, this slide deck offers a comprehensive and detailed look at the key metrics that are needed to understand and optimize a SaaS business, and how these can be used to drive SaaS success. This presentation includes information on:
- An intro to SaaS metrics
- Unit economics
- LTV and churn: An in-depth look
- Variable pricing axes
- Months to recover CAC
- The primary unit of growth: Sales
- Understanding public SaaS companies

1) Customer relationship management (CRM) is a strategy that places customers at the center of a business to foster mutually beneficial relationships. It requires understanding key CRM concepts and best practices.
2) Calculating a customer's lifetime value allows businesses to segment customers, focus on the most profitable, and tailor offerings. However, each customer desires unique relationship styles so one approach does not fit all.
3) Businesses can increase customer lifetime value by reducing defection rates through personalized service, strengthening relationships, and cross-selling/up-selling additional products. The goal is satisfying customers so they remain loyal and generate future profits.
1. The document outlines key performance indicators (KPIs) that AFTEL can use to measure customer success, including churn rate, recurring monthly income, customer satisfaction index, positive customer experience, renewal rates, cost of retaining customers, and customer lifetime value.
2. It describes how to calculate each KPI, such as calculating churn rate by the number of customers lost in a period of time.
3. The KPIs will help AFTEL gain a detailed understanding of customers and identify areas for improvement in order to better satisfy customers and increase customer success.

What investors are looking for in the metrics you track and why do they think they are important. What is CAC and LTC, why is CHURN critical? We will also review how to calculate these important metrics, what equations will give you the right answer, and what tools make sense to use for your business.

This document provides an overview of setting smart targets for paid search campaigns to maximize profitability. It discusses moving from fixed budget mindsets to focusing on return on ad spend (ROAS) or cost per acquisition (CPA) targets based on relevant business inputs. These inputs include profit margin, percentage of margin willing to invest in acquisition, and lead-to-sale conversion rates. The document also provides guidance on calculating smart targets, health checking targets and CPCs, integrating advertising data with CRM systems, and using smart bidding to explore efficiency and volume tradeoffs. The goal is to set targets grounded in an understanding of actual business metrics and profitability.
For many organizations, key performance indicators (KPIs) are "basic" in name only and are tracked to meet compliance regulations or provide retrospective analysis. There is a need for smarter KPIs, says Michael Schrage, a visiting researcher at the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy (IDE).

Zeb Evans, ClickUp. From $0 to $20M ARR in 2 Years: Bootstrapping to Natural ...IT Arena
The document discusses the differences between natural product-market fit (NPMF) and artificial product-market fit (APMF). It notes that NPMF is achieved through bootstrapping, winning organic users, listening to feedback, and iterating quickly. In contrast, APMF is achieved through buying growth, which can lead to addiction and lack of long term viability. The document advises that after achieving NPMF through bootstrapping, companies should continue listening to feedback to further improve their product.
Building a Repeatable, Scalable & Profitable Growth ProcessDavid Skok
The document discusses optimizing the sales funnel for SaaS startups. It emphasizes the importance of understanding the buyer's perspective and journey. The key points covered are:
1) The sales funnel should be designed around the buyer's process, not the vendor's solutions. It is important to understand buyer personas and map the funnel steps to their evaluation process.
2) Friction points in the funnel like long delays or steps requiring other people can drastically reduce conversion. These points should be identified and removed or simplified when possible.
3) The goal is to create a "wow moment" or motivation for the buyer to continue engaging as early as possible. This may require redesigning trial experiences to quickly
Optimize Your Funnel By Getting Inside Your Buyer's HeadDavid Skok

The document provides several examples of compensation plans that measure representatives based on units, gross usage, incremental ARR, and commitments. It emphasizes starting with the desired sales behaviors and measuring representatives on factors within their control.

Decoding the KPI Kaleidoscope with Sandfox Advisorssaastr
Metrics are important to investors because they provide visibility into a SaaS company's revenue growth, sales efficiency, and customer retention. Key metrics include monthly recurring revenue/annual recurring revenue to measure topline growth, revenue churn to understand customer retention, and customer acquisition cost and lifetime value to assess the efficiency and profitability of the growth strategy. Maintaining high growth, strong sales efficiency through a favorable magic number ratio above 1, and low revenue churn are positive signs for investors.
5 metrics to strengthen your multichannel sales strategydevin simon
For many eCommerce companies, measuring multichannel sales performance is a challenge. And as your organisation expands to new sales channels like marketplaces, your own brand web stores, and social commerce channels, the complexity for measuring their performance increases.
So, you may end up being confused on which KPIs to track, or end up tracking every known KPI out there. To avoid this, we have listed some of the most prominent KPIs that can help you critically analyse your multichannel sales strategy:
How to Optimize Your Market Value PotentialZuora, Inc.
1. Wall Street highly values subscription businesses and places a premium on those with high growth and efficient growth, as measured by metrics like growth efficiency index (GEI).
2. The two main levers companies can optimize to improve their market potential are efficient growth and net retention rate. Efficient growth focuses on aligning teams and processes around maximizing annual recurring revenue, while net retention rate measures how well a company retains and expands revenue from existing customers.
3. Companies should optimize these levers by executing strategies to land new customers and expand revenue from existing ones through upsells and add-ons, while minimizing churn, ensuring successful implementations, and engaging customers.
SaaS/subscription businesses are much more complex than traditional businesses, and SaaS performance cannot be measured in the same way as traditional businesses are measured. Based on a talk given at the SaaStr Annual Conference in San Francisco, this slide deck offers a comprehensive and detailed look at the key metrics that are needed to understand and optimize a SaaS business, and how these can be used to drive SaaS success. This presentation includes information on:
- An intro to SaaS metrics
- Unit economics
- LTV and churn: An in-depth look
- Variable pricing axes
- Months to recover CAC
- The primary unit of growth: Sales
- Understanding public SaaS companies

1) Customer relationship management (CRM) is a strategy that places customers at the center of a business to foster mutually beneficial relationships. It requires understanding key CRM concepts and best practices.
2) Calculating a customer's lifetime value allows businesses to segment customers, focus on the most profitable, and tailor offerings. However, each customer desires unique relationship styles so one approach does not fit all.
3) Businesses can increase customer lifetime value by reducing defection rates through personalized service, strengthening relationships, and cross-selling/up-selling additional products. The goal is satisfying customers so they remain loyal and generate future profits.
1. The document outlines key performance indicators (KPIs) that AFTEL can use to measure customer success, including churn rate, recurring monthly income, customer satisfaction index, positive customer experience, renewal rates, cost of retaining customers, and customer lifetime value.
2. It describes how to calculate each KPI, such as calculating churn rate by the number of customers lost in a period of time.
3. The KPIs will help AFTEL gain a detailed understanding of customers and identify areas for improvement in order to better satisfy customers and increase customer success.

Understanding what metrics are relevant to your startup, and why, can be a daunting task. In this meetup we will discuss what metrics matter for a SaaS company or project. What investors are looking for in the metrics you track and why do they think they are important. What is CAC and LTC, why is CHURN critical? We will also review how to calculate these important metrics, what equations will give you the right answer, and what tools make sense to use for your business.

Introducing Smart Targets - SMX London 2020Wijnand Meijer
This document provides an overview of setting smart targets for paid search campaigns to maximize profitability. It discusses moving from fixed budget mindsets to focusing on return on ad spend (ROAS) or cost per acquisition (CPA) targets based on relevant business inputs. These inputs include profit margin, percentage of margin willing to invest in acquisition, and lead-to-sale conversion rates. The document also provides guidance on calculating smart targets, health checking targets and CPCs, integrating advertising data with CRM systems, and using smart bidding to explore efficiency and volume tradeoffs. The goal is to set targets grounded in an understanding of actual business metrics and profitability.
For many organizations, key performance indicators (KPIs) are "basic" in name only and are tracked to meet compliance regulations or provide retrospective analysis. There is a need for smarter KPIs, says Michael Schrage, a visiting researcher at the MIT Initiative on the Digital Economy (IDE).

It also emphasizes the importance of having milestones, securing early sales, and focusing on marketing from the beginning. Additionally, it provides guidance on creating financial plans, forecasts, and managing cash flow.

2. What we’ll talk about
• SaaS - the software licensing model and it’s implications
• SaaS Metrics as indicators of health
• Pull levers for growth – make your SaaS business bulletproof
4. Key diff
• Revenue recognition – perpetual booking is realized as
revenue instantly. SaaS revenue is recognized over the time.
• For a 12-month contract, revenue is recognized each month
at 1/12 of the total contract value).
5. Myth
SaaS companies are simply too expensive. In
fact, we might even be in a bubble!
• conflates the lessons of the 1999-2000 tech bubble.
• Businesses that fail have one thing in common – metrics that
are poor indicators ( eyeballs anyone ?) and don’t align with
GAAP
12. The faster the company acquires
customers, the better the curve looks
when it becomes cash flow positive.
14. Takeaway
• Growth worsens cash flow in a young SaaS business.
• Faster a SaaS business grows, more upfront costs are
involved without incoming cash to negate that.
16. The why
• If CAC has been recognized, the customer base is usually
sticky by that point.
• SaaS businesses are very predictable to model and yield high
cash flow over the lifetime.
• Once CAC has been negated, all incoming recurring cash flow
can be harvested as profit.
• Legacy maintenance costs don’t apply - everyone is always
up-to-date. Better Research and development.
17. The why
• Decentralized budgets results in departmental SaaS adoption.
• More users = Higher switching costs
• Difficult to switch vendors once a SaaS app has embedded
into business workflow.
21. Recurring Revenue
Metric Lowdown
Monthly Recurring
Revenue
• Product revenue
• MRR is a calculation of your normalized (amortized) monthly subscription
revenue.
• Doesn’t include one-time costs
Annual Recurring
Revenue
• Recurring annual costs
ARR per customer • If you are upselling or cross-selling, a growing value is a positive indicator.
22. MRR Movements
Metrics Lowdown
New MRR • New Customers
• Should grow if you are focused on acquisition
Expansion MRR • Upgrades to recurring value of existing customers
• Should grow if you are focused on upselling/cross-selling
Contraction MRR • Downgrades from recurring value of existing customers
• Degrading Contraction MRR indicates a positive business
Cancellation MRR • MRR lost from cancellations
• Negative Churn is indicator of a healthy business
Reactivation MRR • Churned customer resumes subscription
• Growth indicates nurturing success
23. Quick Ratio
(New MRR + Expansion MRR + Reactivation MRR)
(Churned MRR + Contraction MRR)
• Shows ability to reliably grow recurring revenue in the face of
churn.
• Larger quick ratios are better. A startup without churn will
achieve an infinite quick ratio.
27. Churn
Metric Lowdown
Dollar Churn • Recurring revenue lost due to cancellations and contractions
Customer Churn • Number of customers lost in a given period
Gross Churn • MRR lost in a given month/MRR at the beginning of the month
Net Churn • (MRR lost minus MRR from upsells) in a given month / MRR at the beginning of
the month.
28. Signals
• Low churn equals happy customers; high churn means head for
the exits.
• Gross churn estimates the actual loss to the business, while net
revenue churn understates the losses (as it blends upsells with
absolute churn).
• Customer churn is a good measure to understand a company’s
ability to satisfy and retain its customers.
• Dollar churn indicates the revenue loss better as the % of revenue
lost from total recurring revenue due to churned customers.
• If total churn equals the acquisition rate, then the amount of
customers joining equals exactly the amount of customers leaving.
31. If your Net Revenue Churn is high
(above 2% per month) it is an
indicator that there is something
wrong in your business. At 3%
monthly churn, you are losing about
20% of your revenue every year.
32. Signals
• The product doesn’t provide enough value.
• Your product is not sticky.
• You have not successfully got the customer’s users to adopt
the product.
33. More signals
• Your sales force may have oversold the product, or sold it to a
customer that is not well suited to get the benefits.
• SMBs going out of business. Don’t spread yourself too thin.
34. If you are a founder, get on the call
with customer and get a first-hand
account.
35. It’s a net sum game. But it can be
leveraged..
45. CAC is the cost of convincing a
potential customer to buy a product or
service.
46. The signals it gives
• Investors determine profitability by looking at the difference
between how much money can be extracted from customers
and the costs of extracting it.
• Marketing uses it to optimize the return on advertising
investments.
47. If the costs to extract money from
customers can be reduced, the
company’s profit margin improves and
it makes a larger profit.
49. Caveats
• Failing to include all the costs incurred in user acquisition
such as referral fees, credits, or discounts.
• Calculating CAC as a “blended” cost (including users
acquired organically) rather than isolating users acquired
through “paid” marketing.
52. LTV
ARPA x Gross Margin %
Customer Churn Rate
• Lifetime value is the present value of the future net profit from
the customer over the duration of the relationship.
• Gross margin is a company’s total sales revenue minus cost
of goods sold
53. Months to recover
Customer Acquisition Cost
Average Selling Price
• Recovery within 5-7 months is gold.
• Time to profitability and cash flow.
56. Signals
• Helps determine the long-term value of the customer and how
much net value you generate per customer after accounting
for customer acquisition costs.
• A growing LTV attributed as a multiple value of CAC by 3 or
more indicates a healthy SaaS pushing for hyper growth.
• If the LTV is close to or less than CAC, it suggests that the
company is spending more money to acquire the customer
than it expects to generate in profits over the customer’s
lifetime.
57. More Signals
• Deciding when to hit the accelerator pedal.
• Understanding if some of the more expensive lead generation
sources (e.g. Google AdWords, Billboard, TV etc.) make
financial sense.
• Working backwards, we can use average selling price and
months to recover to figure the ideal spend on customer
acquisition. If we’re spending less or more, you can afford to
be more aggressive or adjust.
59. Caveats
• If you have only few months of data, the conservative way to
measure LTV is to look at historical value to date. Rather than
predicting average life span and estimating how the retention
curves might look, we prefer to measure 12 month and 24
month LTV.
• A common mistake is to estimate the LTV as a present value
of revenue or even gross margin of the customer instead of
calculating it as net profit of the customer over the life of the
relationship.
• LTV model is confused and misused. It is used to rationalize
Marketing Spending
61. Active Users
• Number of users with an activity within a current period.
• Activity is indication of product engagement, and can mean
different things in different product.
• Gives an indication of the total user base actively engaged
with product.
62. Signals
• Product Activation status indicates the adoption pattern and if
mined can result in benchmark for moving a user through
lifecycle.
• Recurring usage patterns by sections and buckets help
manage product better.
• Key value extracted by consumers helps with setting up
pricing to offer the right solution for the right price.
67. Funnel Performance
• Increase the number of leads at TOFU
• Identify profitable lead sources and double down. Conversely
stop.
• Enhance lead lifecycle to enhance conversion
68. Conversion
• Optimize trial conversion from visitors. Target 15% at least
• Win/Loss ratio should be good for opportunities
• Sales conversion for qualified leads should be good.
69. Forward planning
Fix a goal - $4 million in the next quarter.
• Go backwards to figure out:
1. Number of leads
2. Number of deals / average selling price
3. Velocity
4. Sales team
5. PPC costs
71. Pricing levers
• Multi-axis pricing - focus on 3 part tariffs
• Introduce freemium if your product can add better value at
paid level and freemium helps you land grab
• Charge for the value delivered – not the number of users
using it
• Fixed ASP deals coupled with usage to drive up ASP
76. Cohort Analysis tells us
• Are we losing most of the customers in the first couple of
months?
• Does Churn stabilize after some period of time?
• Are we making progress? How much improvement have we
made to retaining revenue ?
77. Checklist
• Study your customer behavior to understand the usage,
behavior and patterns
• Talk to your customers about their preferences and where
they find value with your product. Map it with usage and find
benchmarks.
• Price sensitivity surveys
• Know your product usage metrics and your value metric
• Don’t leave money on the table – find right billing fit for your
customers.
79. False positives
• Your ARR grew from $1M a year ago to $4M today, but you
raised a big Series A and you’re burning more than $1M/month.
• You can recover CAC in 2-3 months, but your customers all
churn after 12 months.
• You have 0% churn and great cash flow, but it’s only because
you require a 5 year contract paid up front and now your sales
cycle is super long.

82. Three ways to grow
Lever Strategy
ARPA • Upselling and cross-selling
• Increase price – evaluate elasticity
• Pricing segmentation – bundle better
Increase customers • Optimizing funnel conversion rates – more evaluators and more qualified leads
• PPC
• Content marketing to increase inflow of subscribers and leads
Churn • Identify at-risk score – control
• Improve the product – make it more sticky
• Reactivation campaign
In the traditional software world, companies like Oracle and SAP do most of their business by selling a “perpetual” license to their software and then later selling upgrades. In this model, customers pay for the software license up front and then typically pay a recurring annual maintenance fee (about 15-20% of the original license fee). This is great for old-line software companies and it’s great for traditional income statement accounting. Why? Because the timing of revenue and expenses are perfectly aligned. All of the license fee costs go directly to the revenue line and all of the associated costs get reflected as well, so a $1M license fee sold in the quarter shows up as $1M in revenue in the quarter. That’s how traditional software companies can get to profitability on the income statement early on in their lifecycles.

(which does hold for publicly traded companies to be fair)
CAC = $5000
MRR = $500
Company A, which is spending $5,000 to acquire the customer and billing them at a rate of $500 per month, doesn’t break even on the customer until 11th month.

This is why many SaaS companies today invest aggressively in sales and marketing when adoption is high, even though it puts pressure on current profitability. That early growth is key: In winner-take-all technology markets, it’s a land grab.

It depends but 4+ is indicator of a heal
Should I invest
Simple rule - it costs less to maintain and grow an existing customer than to acquire a new one.
As long as the hole (churn) is small, you can keep the bucket full by adding more water (customers) than is draining out.

Can be unstable or buggy.
To make your product sticky, try making it a key part of their monthly workflow, and/or have them store data in your product that is highly valuable to them, where the value would be lost of they cancelled.
It isn’t enough that what you’re selling is sticky. Who you’re selling it to must also be sticky.

For example, in terms of the upstream oil market, if an oil supply is in an area requiring heavy infrastructure investments, the amount applied to extract the oil may be greater than its market price per barrel.
While blended CAC [total acquisition cost / total new customers acquired across all channels] isn’t wrong, it doesn’t inform how well your paid campaigns are working and whether they’re profitable.
This is why investors consider paid CAC [total acquisition cost/ new customers acquired through paid marketing] to be more important than blended CAC in evaluating the viability of a business — it informs whether a company can scale up its user acquisition budget profitably.
Key job of the CEO. The health of business helps you understand what you should do.
Dramatic improvement to LTV:CAC ratio over the five quarters shown.
Primary lever – lowering the churn rate from 3.5% to 1.5%
Secondary lever - Drove up their AVG MRR per customer.

If this isn’t right, your value proposition isn’t resonating, or you may have a market where there is not enough pain to get people to buy.
If we take some actions to try to fix churn in early months, (i.e. with better product features, easier on-boarding, better training, etc.) we would want to know if those changes had been successful.

a cohort is simply a fancy name for a group for customers that joined in a particular month. So we will have a January cohort, a February cohort, etc.
