I recently chatted with the hugely influential business leader, Aaron Ross, before his headline speech at the SaaStock tech conference.
Aaron is a global keynote speaker and the #1 best-selling author of the classic B2B sales and growth book:
‘Predictable Revenue: Turn Your Business Into A Sales Machine With The $100 Million Best Practices Of Salesforce.com”‘
Aaron has since gone on to write another best-seller called ‘From Impossible To Inevitable‘ which he wrote with the also legendary SaaS growth expert, Jason Lemkin.
From Impossible to Inevitable details the hypergrowth playbook of companies like Hubspot, Salesforce.com (the fastest growing multibillion-dollar software company), and EchoSign—aka Adobe Document Services (which catapulted from $0 to $144 million in seven years).
Regardless of the size of your business, you can use the same insights as these notable companies to learn what it really takes to break your own revenue records.
I’ve read the book and loved it. It will help you:
- Pinpoint why you aren’t growing faster
- Understand what it takes to get to hypergrowth
- Nail a niche (the #1 missing growth ingredient)
- What every revenue leader needs to know about building a scalable sales team
