Webapper consults with many SMBs. We share our knowledge and experience on business topics to help fuel manageable business growth.

The Rise of Mobile-First SaaS

In SaaS, it's apparent that most products are developed for desktop first. Given the nature of our hybrid work environment today, many tech experts predict that mobile apps will become increasingly dominant. SaaS businesses that fail to offer mobile-friendly solutions risk losing customers and falling behind their competitors. We see a significant growth opportunity for mobile-first SaaS products.

The Rise of MicroSaaS

Software-as-a-Service is huge. A staggering 99% of companies will use at least one SaaS product by the end of 2023. SaaS niches are dominated by a handful of vendors. For example, in CRM, it's Salesforce, Hubspot, ClickUp and Monday. Competitive markets don't preclude innovation though -- we're seeing the emergence of micro solutions to augment these big players. Witness the rise of microSaaS products.

Building a SaaS Unicorn

Today, let's take a moment to dream big (we're overdue for an aspirational article). What if you were actually building a SaaS unicorn? It's possible -- so far, over a thousand startups have reached valuations over $1 billion. If becoming a unicorn was easy, everyone would do it, right? Not everyone can, but if you look at SaaS unicorns, you'll see some repeating themes.

Building a SaaS Business Is Like Playing Baseball

If you're a baseball fan, we're entering the most wonderful time of the year: MLB playoffs and the World Series. In business, we use so many metaphors from baseball, and with the season upon us, we realized how much building SaaS is like playing baseball. Step into the batter's box, and get ready for our pitch.

Finding Success in SaaS Using OKRs

SaaS Sales Funnels

What happens if you're struggling with the initial capture of qualified leads? It can certainly happen for both new products and mature ones. Building up revenue requires having ample new opportunities to surpass any customers who churn out. So if your sales need a boost, you may want to develop or improve your SaaS sales funnels.

SaaS Customer Success

As a long-time SaaS development company, working with a variety of applications over the years, we see the importance of delivering a superior customer experience. SaaS growth is greatly impacted by maximizing customer retention. Customer churn creates a leaky boat, making the goal to quickly get customers to a point where they find value in your SaaS offering. And a powerful tool in that arsenal is building out people, processes, and technology to manage SaaS customer success.

Minimizing SaaS Churn and Maximizing Customer Retention

Nearly all SaaS businesses are subscription-based. Growth depends on adding new customers and retaining existing customers. Customer attrition (churn) is the polar opposite of customer retention. SaaS churn is unavoidable -- for a variety of reasons, customers will move on. For a healthy product, it's important to minimize SaaS churn and maximize customer retention.

Death by Coding: People, Process, and Planning in Software Development

In a recent conversation with Webapper, a lead developer said “In order to ship on time, I just need more time to code.” He went on to say “If I didn’t have to spend all this time on the product roadmap, I could ship on time.” After three decades in software development, these statements sound significant alarm bells...
