The Truth About AI in SaaS: Nathan Latka Debates Microsoft's CEO Prediction


Listen Later

In this episode of the SaaS Revolution Show our host Alex Theuma is joined by Nathan Latka, CEO and Chief Investment Officer at Founderpath (and the powerhouse behind SaaSOpen!), as he shares the truth about AI in SaaS ...and why it counters Microsoft's CEOs prediction.
"I would get emails from real sales reps all the time that were terribly written and they'd go right to spam. I'd also get emails from CEOs that were really well written and I would click them or I'd reply and I engage. Nothing changes. All that changes now is that people with less resources can maybe get an outbound campaign going faster. But if you don't structure it in a way that captures the recipient's attention and gets them to reply like it's just useless, you're just spraying and praying. You're just paying for ChatGPT and credits that you know got you no value. So this is why the biggest in demand job towers here is going to be prompt marketing."
Nathan shares:
• His counter to Satya Nadella: how AI is transforming SaaS pricing to usage-based models ...not killing the industry!
• While many SaaS companies are rushing to add AI labels to their marketing, the real opportunity lies in using AI to reduce friction points and help users reach value faster
• Why ChatGPT and AI tools have replaced review sites as the go-to for software recommendations
• The key to appearing in AI tool recommendations (and why it isn't about gaming the system)
• The rise of "prompt marketing" - how to stand out in a world of AI-generated content
• How domain ratings and SEO fundamentals will remain a crucial part for AI tool visibility and rankings
and more!
