Old-school go-to-market still wins — if your product touches people's homes. Here's how Property Control dominates vertical SaaS.

Featuring Rob Auld, CRO at Property Control — the company consolidating condo and HOA management software across North America through acquisition and community-driven growth.

Rob shares how Property Control grew from a founder scratching his own itch in a Toronto condo to the dominant player across three brands and thousands of properties. He explains why community-first GTM, phone calls, and trade show handshakes still outperform ad-driven inbound in vertical SaaS — and how AI is being layered in to scale that personal touch without losing it.

🏢 Founder-as-first-customer built a 15-year moat 🤝 Community-driven sales beat pure inbound in property tech 📞 Calling people still works when the product is personal 🤖 AI augments — not replaces — the human connection 💳 Payments and accounting integration fuel 2026 growth
