So at least in my experience and orbit, folks in tech have gotten progressively less satisfied and more unhappy the past 18 months or so. It’s not layoffs. Those folks have a reason to be upset, but there really haven’t been many in my ecosystem. And I’m excluding them. It’s not comp. While many in sales have seen comp declines, overall comp has held up outside of sales, and even in sales many are still paid quite well.

Once you cross $5m-$10m in ARR, then usually: You have a brand. At least, you have a mini-brand in your niche. And that brand generates leads organically, and fairly low-cost leads.

When I joined, there were fewer than 30 employees. I knew everyone’s kid’s name, I knew their dog’s name. Back then we had to work hard to introduce ourselves to founders as some hadn’t heard of us, and the operating value add model was still unproven on Sand Hill Road.
