Guest: Mark Walker, CEO at Nue.io 

-- 

SaaS pricing isn’t breaking because of AI — it’s breaking because most revenue systems were never built for the speed and complexity of today’s models.

In this episode, Mark Walker, CEO of Nue.io, joins host Ken Lempit to unpack why modern SaaS and AI companies are abandoning legacy CPQ and billing stacks for a flexible, unified revenue infrastructure built for rapid change.

Key highlights:

• Why legacy CPQ + billing can’t support modern SaaS pricing
• How committed consumption + bank-billed models are reshaping monetization
• Why speed of configuration is now a GTM advantage
• What RevOps must rethink as pricing experiments explode
• How elite teams thrive on hard problems and high-velocity execution

If you’re a B2B SaaS founder, CRO, CMO, or RevOps leader navigating complex pricing models, upgrading your revenue stack, or preparing for next-gen AI monetization, this conversation will change how you think about scaling.

Guest: Brent Adamson, Co-Author of The Framemaking Sale & Co-Founder of A to B Insight

SaaS sales teams obsess over beating competitors—but the real battle isn’t across the table. It’s in the buyer’s mind.

In this episode, Brent Adamson—co-author of The Challenger Sale and The Challenger Customer and Co-Founder of A to B Insight—joins host Ken Lempit to reveal why most SaaS deals are lost to no decision at all, and how his new book, The Framemaking Sale, helps buyers build the confidence to act. 

Brent explains how the sales playbook has evolved from “teach them what to think” to “help them trust themselves”—and why the future of B2B growth depends on changing how we sell, not what we sell.

Key insights from this episode:

• Why no decision—not competitors—is killing SaaS deals
• How to turn buyer anxiety into deal confidence
• Why “trusted advisor” means helping customers trust themselves
• How marketing and sales can guide smarter, faster SaaS buying
• The mindset shift every B2B sales leader needs now

Guest: Braydan Young, Co-Founder and CEO at SlashExperts

 -- 

Buyers don’t want another “book a demo” button—they want proof from people like them.

In this episode, Braydan Young, Co-Founder and CEO of SlashExperts (and previously co-founder of Sendoso), joins host Ken Lempit to share how buyer-led growth is reshaping SaaS sales and why the old way of running references at the end of the deal cycle is broken.

Key insights from this episode:

• Why moving customer references earlier can shorten sales cycles by 4–6 weeks
• How authentic peer conversations double conversion rates compared to demos
• What CROs can learn from Sendoso’s hypergrowth—and its “we grew too fast” moment
• Why handwritten notes and simple gifts outperform flashy, expensive ones
• How to turn the “dark funnel” into a competitive advantage

Guest: Sammy Greenwall, Founder of Henry.ai -- 

What if your go-to-market motion could skip past theory and build from real-world pain? 

That’s exactly how Sammy Greenwall, founder of Henry.ai, approaches commercial real estate—and why his vertical AI startup is scaling without traditional sales or marketing. 

Sammy’s background as a CRE professional-turned-founder gave him not only insight, but language, trust, and distribution advantages. In this episode, he shares how founder-market fit drives everything from product strategy to GTM efficiency—and how it’s paying off in a space historically allergic to software.

Sammy also pulls back the curtain on:

• How PLG became a byproduct of customer obsession—not the plan
• Building a waitlist-worthy brand (with no ad budget)
• Creating real enterprise value in a low-trust, high-volume industry

Three Key Takeaways for B2B GTM Leaders:

1. Founder-Market Fit > Generic Product-Market Fit
Sammy’s deep domain experience gave him a faster path to traction: he didn’t just “identify” pain—he lived it. That meant smarter onboarding flows, tighter feature prioritization, and messaging that clicked with buyers the first time. CEOs and founders with industry-specific experience should lean hard into that unfair advantage.

2. PLG Isn’t a Tactic—It’s the Outcome of Product Obsession
Henry.ai didn’t set out to be a PLG company. Instead, they tracked usage down to individual clicks, met with every early user, and iterated daily. That intensity created a product people wanted to talk about, which fueled organic adoption, referrals, and even early enterprise wins.

3. AI Doesn’t Just Accelerate Work—It Replaces It
In CRE, Sammy’s platform cut multi-week deal deck creation down to hours. That kind of workflow disruption isn’t about “boosting productivity”—it’s about letting revenue-generating staff focus on high-value activities like deals and relationships. This shift reframes AI adoption for skeptical buyers and opens the door to premium pricing.
