Summary
In this episode, Sean advises B2B SaaS businesses to focus on profitability as their products grow. Once companies validate their ability to attract users and paying customers, they should calculate their gross margin to determine profitability and break down revenue and variable costs. Sean believes that profits should be invested in support or growth, specifically in low-touch products. By building processes and delegating tasks, businesses can measure their performance against outcomes to ensure return on investment.
