Rocket SaaS just hit £100k MRR! In this episode, Ryan explains the top 5 reasons why we achieved this and outlines how you can implement this into your business to achieve the same result.

Takeaways

• Demand generation and content marketing are crucial for scaling a business. By creating educational thought leadership content, businesses can reach the 95% of their target audience who are not yet in the buying mindset.
• Retargeting ads can fuel demand generation efforts by targeting engaged audiences with relevant content. This helps build brand awareness and keeps the business top of mind for potential customers.
• An email newsletter can be a powerful tool for building relationships with prospects and customers. By providing valuable, educational content on a regular basis, businesses can establish themselves as experts in their industry.
• Customer service plays a vital role in reducing churn and keeping customers happy. By improving communication, providing detailed reporting, and listening to customer feedback, businesses can increase customer satisfaction and retention.
• Hiring an amazing team is essential for scaling a business. By focusing on cultural fit and creating processes and standard operating procedures, businesses can ensure that their team is aligned and efficient.

The buyer journey pyramid divides audiences into four stages: buying now (3%), information gathering (17%), problem aware (20%), and not problem aware (60%). Most companies target only the top two, missing 80% of potential customers. To reach all stages, create tailored content: case studies for buyers, comparisons for info gatherers, educational content for the problem-aware

Takeaways

• The buyer journey pyramid divides the target audience into four sections: buying now, information gathering, problem aware, and not problem aware.
• Most companies only target the top two sections, missing out on 80% of their target audience.
• To effectively target all four sections, create tailored content for each stage of the buyer journey.
• For those buying now, focus on case studies and demos. For information gathering, use competitor comparison campaigns. For problem aware, educate them on the problem and provide solutions. For not problem aware, create content that highlights the problem and introduces your solution.
