👋 Bye bye, Founder Sales. Skip trial & error and benefit from 100+ B2B SaaS startups, 50+ GTM podcast episodes, and 10+ angel investments.
Ohne messbaren Mehrwert, kein Enterprise Sales. Klingt abgedroschen, ist aber so 😜 Wer dies sehr greifbar und mit konkreten Beispielen erläutert, ist Marc Funk - Gründer von Frontnow. Seine Generative AI-Lösung ermöglicht eine bedürfnisorientierte Kundenberatung und steigert damit messbar die Conversion Rate und den Warenkorbwert. Die Zielkunden von Frontnow sind große Handelskonzerne, insbesondere solche, die Schwierigkeiten haben, ihren USP aus dem stationären Handel in den Onlinehandel zu übertragen. Das Unternehmen setzt stark auf Veranstaltungen und Messen, um potenzielle Kunden zu erreichen. Zudem arbeitet Front Now mit Partnern zusammen, um das Produkt mitzuverkaufen. - Du hast Lust auf mehr? Dann höre am besten direkt rein. Die Folge von The SaaS Symphony - und viele weitere - findest Du auf allen bekannten Podcast-Plattformen 🎙 (oder mit dem Links im 1. Kommentar👇) #b2bsaas #b2bsales #gotomarket Jede Woche spreche ich in meinem Podcast "𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐚𝐚𝐒 𝐒𝐲𝐦𝐩𝐡𝐨𝐧𝐲" mit ausgewählten Gründer:innen, Fachexpert:innen und Investor:innen über die Herausforderung der GTM-Orchestrierung und die Verzahnung von Product, Marketing, Sales und Customer Success. Anfang August ist mein GTM-Buch "𝐅𝐮𝐧𝐤𝐲 𝐅𝐥𝐲𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐥𝐬: Go-to-Market-Strategien für Start-ups mit sich selbst beschleunigendem Wachstum" erschienen und sofort zum Bestseller aufgestiegen. Ab sofort erhältlich bei Amazon und im ausgewählten Fachhandel.

Earlier this month I had a chat with Kirstie Pickering from Maddyness UK where I shared some thoughts on our approach at Peak. In a nutshell 👉🏻 we want to be the investors we would have loved to have had as founders. Go-to-market strategy is crucial for early-stage startups, and we focus on helping founders get their sales and marketing machines up and running. It's not just about capital—it's about offering real operational support, from hiring to GTM execution. 💡 We're 100% founder-backed and we're ex-founders ourselves so we've been in the trenches. This experience enables us to ask the right questions, provide sparring feedback, and connect founders with the right people when needed. 🤸🏻 Quote, unquote: You don’t always know what works and what doesn’t when you build a company, but we want to see the right ingredients that could lead to this answer. Most importantly: we don’t build the company for founders—we help them build it themselves. It’s all about guiding, asking the right questions, and being a partner every step of the way. If you're building in the B2B SaaS space, hit me up! Check out the full article for more (link in the comment) 👇 #innovation #venturecapital #entrepreneurship #vc #startups #gotomarket

Servus, Munich! 🥨 On Monday, our colleagues Tim Winter and Philippe Klitzing hosted a traditional Bavarian breakfast during Bits & Pretzels with our friends from IRIS. In the historical Schneider Weisse guest house directly at Marienplatz, we enjoyed some alcohol-free beers, white sausages and of course a lot of Pretzels. Thank you everyone for kicking off the week with us - we can't wait for our next Oktoberfest with you.

Drilling down on #AI Depth - The 31 questions to figure out for every VC. This is an article I wish I had written 1 year earlier but hey, better late than never. At Peak, we have a set of 100 questions along our 4 T's (Team, Thesis, Traction, Timing) to answer before making a decision to invest. Now, let's extend this list for AI ventures and drill down on their AI Depth. Read the full article including the question list here: https://lnkd.in/d_AtBisu Take out the gut feeling and guesstimation around AI and start making your assessment more tangible. Also, a big thank you to my dear colleague Maximilian Serfling for your input. What did I miss?

Berlin SaaS Week & ARRtist is just around the corner, and we’re excited to announce that we'll host a special event with our very own Johan van Mil and Philippe Klitzing in the second week of October. 📅 Mark your calendars for Wednesday, October 9th: Johan and Philippe will be hosting a live recording of The Big Exit Show podcast with special guest Josef Brunner, and a selected few are invited to join the audience. What’s in store? We’ll dive deep into Josef’s remarkable journey—from launching multiple businesses, writing books, advising companies but most importantly to sealing a series of exits. It’s not just about building a company; it’s about knowing how to sell it too and about the highlights and lowlights along this journey. Whether you're a seasoned entrepreneur or just starting out, we'll make sure you walk away with valuable lessons on how to make your big exit. More info in the first comment 👇 Be advised that the number of spots are limited. #startups #exit #b2b #saas #berlinsaasweek #arrtist #venturecapital
