Innovative products are the bread and butter of SaaS companies, and it can be tempting to try new things. But when it comes to launching new products, many B2B businesses can stumble at first.

Episode 64 of the B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks Podcast is the third and final episode in our Ansoff Matrix series. We discuss the right side of the famous Matrix: product development and diversification (“the pivot”) for B2B SaaS. We show you how to find the most efficient and authentic path to true new product-led growth for existing and new audiences. 

We dive into..

• Tried and true T2D3 strategies for marketing a new product to your existing audience
• How to manage new product development with what your users actually want
• The difficulties of pivoting to a new product and new audience – and useful examples of those who get it right. 

B2B SaaS Marketing Snacks is one of the most respected voices in the SaaS industry. It is hosted by two leading marketing and revenue growth experts for software:

• Stijn Hendrikse: Author of T2D3 CMO Masterclass & Book, Founder of Kalungi
• Brian Graf: CEO of Kalungi

B2B SaaS companies move through predictable stages of marketing focus, cost and size (as described in the popular T2D3 book). With people cost being a majority of the cost involved, every hire needs to be well worth the investment!

The best founders, CFOs and COOs in B2B SaaS strike an efficient balance of marketing leadership, strategy and execution to produce the customer and revenue growth they require. Staying flexible and nimble is an asset in a hard-charging B2B world.
