I am passionate about scaling SaaS organizations. Using my two decades of Revenue Leadership experience, I have honed an approach that yields fast results.

SaaS startups and scale-ups are at an interesting infection point.

You have to work this into your model. From your TAM, work out how much is Serviceable (SAM) and then how much of that is truly Serviceable Obtainable Market (SOM), the part of the market that you can not only service, but that you want to service, have to service and have a right to win!
