In this latest episode of the "Grow Your B2B SaaS Podcast," host Joran sits down with Pablo Asensio, founder of 8% Growth, to discuss how to master product-led growth (PLG) for SaaS companies. Pablo explains that PLG is a strategy that shifts away from traditional methods of relying on sales and marketing to acquire and retain customers. Instead, it positions the product itself as the main driver of growth. This approach allows users to see the product’s value before committing financially, making it easier to grow revenue naturally. Key aspects of PLG include self-serve onboarding, viral loops, and in-product upsells. Successful companies like Slack, Dropbox, Calendly, and Miro have effectively used PLG to expand their user base.Key Timecodes
