They hire more people to own the function, start experiencing workflow or process issues, and eventually someone is tasked with finding a SaaS solution to alleviate the pains everyone’s experiencing.

Q: What is the meanest thing that venture capitalists can do to founders? Even today, a lot of founders worry about raising VC capital. They hear the stories about how things went sideways.

First off, the axiom that companies are bought, not sold, is mostly right. 95 times out of 100, you can’t wake up some morning and just go sell your start-up. Unless there are pre-existing relationships that have expressed a desire to buy (which sometimes there are) … calling up CorpDev at Google isn’t going to work. So to me the real question is — when you get an offer … how do you know?

Q: What’s the proper way to commission a multi-year SaaS sale with increasing ACV each year? There’s no perfect answer here, but at least until you are at $10m+ ARR , my strongest recommendation is align around cash. Later , you will align around bookings (including multi-year bookings), and change the comps plan to align around bookings. But the sucker better is to align around bookings anywhere < $10m-$20m in ARR, really, at anytime when cash still matters.

You can also see the relative ratio of the two, and that Qualtrics, while it does have substantial services revenue, is still primarily a software company.
