Product led vs. sales led growth with Aazar Shad

In this podcast, we talk about sales.

Sales is not the right way to grow every single company. And when I say sales, I'm talking about the process of having conversations with your customers, explaining how your product works, helping them see value and how you can take them from where they are today, to where they want to go. This involves people. But there are a lot of companies that grow without this type of sales motion.

This movement is called product led growth. And there's a tension between sales led and product led growth. Usually people are in one camp or the other, depending on which category they're in and how their product works. I'm excited because in this episode, we're going to talk with Aazar Shad, who has experience with both.

This interview was inspired by a podcast that Aazar recorded entitled "Wins & Losses: Behind-the-scenes of Sales-Led to Product-Led Experiment That I Did."

Your first sales hire with Marc Thomas at Powered by Search

In this episode, Harris asks Marc to share his thoughts on a few topics:

Role of sales: How does he see the overlap between sales and marketing, and in particular, are there certain companies where salespeople don't make sense? Short answer: Yes, listen to the episode or read the transcript for the reply, because it's a little complicated.
Repeatability in sales: When has a company achieved repeatability in their sales process, where they feel they are getting closer to Product Market Fit (PMF)? How can you measure that?
Beyond Product Market Fit: Even if you've got a sense of PMF, is that enough? Marc says you must look at the market part of the equation before proceeding.
Steps after getting traction: Now that you're scaling, what are the next steps to take in sales and marketing alignment? How do you drive conversion, where would you go next with site content and marketing strategies? Marc's low-volume keyword strategy is an interesting one. Listen or read to hear him explain it.
One thing to improve all your marketing: To keep it simple, Marc concludes by sharing the one thing that will improve everything about your marketing: Focusing on pain points.
