Peter Caputa is the CEO of Databox, a $10M+ ARR analytics platform that helps businesses centralize their data and make better decisions.

Before joining Databox, Peter was one of the early sales leaders at HubSpotwhere he helped pioneer the agency partner program that fueled the company’s breakout growth.

In this episode, Peter shares his full playbook for using LinkedIn as a CEO, why most founders still underrate brand and feedback loops, and how he spends 2–3 hours a day on content that drives real business outcomes.

We also get into positioning, pricing, and why staying visible yourself is one of the most underused advantages in SaaS.

Topics we cover in this episode:

- Peter’s system for LinkedIn: writing, feedback, and scheduling

- How CEO content helped Databox navigate SEO decline

- The real ROI of posting daily (and how to measure it)

- Why most attribution models undervalue social

- How Databox used primary research to shape their GTM

- The mindset shift most founders need to publish consistently

- When calling BS publicly is worth it (and how to do it right)

- Positioning strategy: how Peter narrowed ICP & launched new pricing

- The HubSpot lessons he’s applying at Databox
