Potential levers to scale B2B software sales
Main Capital focal points to boost topline growth (not exhaustive)
Is the Go-To-Market approach in line with the product-market-combination? What about Inbound and marketing automation?
Does the current salesforce have the right size, structure, composition and skills to achieve sales targets?
How high is the customer churn and what are the underlying reasons? How to bring down churn?
What (standardized) measures are in place to enable the salesforce to reach the sales targets?
How effective is the compensation scheme? Are the underlying targets realistic?
How effective are the non-direct sales models? How does the company balance channel and direct sales?Best partnership & channel strategies ?
How long are sales cycles? Are there reasonable means to shorten them?
Is there additional upside from optimizing pricing & packaging? Does pricing incentivize recurring business?
The average SaaS company only spends 6h determining their pricing strategy: On the other hand, a 1% increase in pricing yields an average 11% increase in profit*

Case study: Remote access software price model transition to subscription
Multi-source/Multi-method approachWe used internal data analyses, expert interviews and large-scale market research across different countries to assess acceptance of SaaS model, barriers to switch to subscription, an optimized portfolio lineup and accepted price levels
Development of subscription roll-out strategyWe identified 4 pilot countries with high subscription potential (high acceptance, high likelihood to switch, low update rates, …) and determined the optimal subscription prices for the transition
Derivation of impact on price, sales, billing and IT:We modelled the financial impact on relevant KPIs for monitoring and laid out requirements for a subscription switch across the organization

The approach The result
Client: Web-based collaboration software providerClient was a Unicorn software provider for web-based collaboration software with clients in >200 countries
Challenge: Perpetual license model with low license updatesThe core product was on a perpetual license model with different (but generally high) share of non-updaters across countries, a lack of innovations to drive updates and sales behind expectations in some big markets
Goal: Determine product offer, future price model, and price level for each key marketThe goal was to optimize the offer portfolio and to understand subscription readiness, identify the optimal price level per country and set up the optimal roll-out strategy
The client, challenge and project goals
1) Increases from subscription transition with improved monetization due to optimized offer and higher price level

Case study: Maintenance increase + commercial excellence for 15m€ software provider
Assessment of internal levers with Simon-Kucher monetization frameworkWe looked at various elements across the organization (offer, pricing, discounts, incentive system, communication) to identify improvement areas
Multi-source/Multi-method price increase potential assessmentWe used internal data analyses, expert interviews and customer market research (qual/quant) to assess both the price increase potential for the customer base and the willingness to switch to a subscription model
Offer and price optimizationWe optimized the new customer offer and decided for a maintenance increase for the base instead of introduction of a subscription model

The approach The result
Client: 15m€ software providerClient was a niche billing and planning software provider for services with ~15m€revenues
Challenge: Perpetual license model with no maintenance increases in the pastThe client had not increased maintenance in the past and was not able to monetize upgrades sufficiently despite an ever-improving product
Goal: Switch to subscription model or maintenance increaseThe goal was to identify whether a subscription transition would be best to increase CLTV by better monetizing upgrades in the future or to simply increase maintenance fees
The client, challenge and project goals
Improvements of €1mApart from maintenance increase, we improved customer acquisition via different offers and an optimized incentive system that reduced discounting

Preismetrik(en) UserUse-Case-abhängig: Meist nutzungsbasiert (# messages, Impressions, API Calls, automation runs, etc.1)
Gründe für Auswahl der Preismetrik(en)
Anzahl User der Software treibt den Wert (begrenzte Heterogenität des je Vertriebsmitarbeiter verantworteten Umsatzes)
Nutzungsintensität (Anzahl verschickter Mails / Page Impressions, etc.) treibt den Wert SFMC reduziert die für eine effiziente

Nehmen Sie diese 3 Dinge mit nach Hause
1 Keine allgemeingültigen Lösungen: Ob SaaS, Good-Better-Best oder user-based pricing – finden Sie die Lösung, die am besten zu Ihrem Unternehmen passt
Kunden- statt Produktorientierung: Denken Sie früh an Ihre Kunden und deren Zahlungsbereitschaft

Welche Relevanz hat Sales?T h e A r t o f S a l e s
Wo wäre SAP heute mit 20.000 mehr Entwicklern?
Wo wäre MSFT heute ohne Channel?
Wo wäre Amazon ohne Internetplattform?
Wo wäre Apple ohne Plattform & Vertriebsnetzwerk?
„Die meisten (kleineren) Firmen machen den Fehler, dass sie an Investitionen in den Vertrieb sparen.”
Es ist nicht die Technologie, die den Erfolg bringt. Sie ist vielmehr die Daseinsberechtigung. Erst der Vertrieb bringt Skalierbarkeit.

Der Prozess ist der Weg zum ErfolgT h e A r t o f S a l e s
Sales is a rather technical process on an emotional journey for the customer to say YES!
Verstehe ich die Kundenanforderungen wirklich? Was ist der Pain Point, was erzeugt Mehrwert?

cleversoft’s path to enterprise clients
34cleversoft group | all rights reserved
cleversoft’s story to winning large clients
First answer (which maybe not what every investor likes)
We did it slowly over time
● reference building, word of mouth● knew the weaknesses of our large competitors● understand our clients problem by listening● domain expertise, our sales team had run and was running projects
themselves● first mover with new regulations like PRIIPs ● don’t just talk, deliver● we ask about the things we do not understand● never employed bullshit bingo (primarily because we were young and did
not know the buzz words)
35cleversoft group | all rights reserved
cleversoft’s story to winning large clients
We grew all customers and products organically, we never made losses as a company
○ we did buy some customers with low prices (see below)
We grew all customers and products organically, we never made lossesas a company
○ we did buy some customers with low prices (see below)
We had some additional unique challenges
● very young team, only 8 years after starting we had a person over 30● no grey hair

37cleversoft group | all rights reserved 37cleversoft group | all rights reserved
How we do it today
38cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 1: fully understand and embrace the customer’s business
Master your industry
● show that you fully understand the customer’s business and challenges
● present what they are interested in, not just your standard show/slides
○ understand their business challenges, not just your software
○ present what decision maker is going to decide on, not junior people questions, but take them
with you
■ typical: not too technical
Presentation needs to be or seem to be tailor made to the client’s specific problems
● include their logos and templates
● include the names and colors of their legacy systems to which you will interface
39cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 1: fully understand and embrace the customer’s business
Respect the customer
● do not bore them with the basics - in particular if senior management is there
● give clear decisive answers, i.e. on time table questions. do not evade the question
Deep dive / subject matter expertise
● engage customers experts in deep dive discussions (but only if you really have the capability to do so)
40cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 2: Listen to your customers
Listen to your customers
● easier said than done
● simple blueprint rules we established for our sales team
○ always include a slide summarizing the requirements from their emails/phone calls with you
○ in your product presentation have references back to their concrete requirements of the customer
○ include the customer legacy systems in the slides
○ draw a custom time table / milestone plan
■ use the standard table
■ change the colors and insert their people’s names, even if you have some n.n.
○ no false pride
■ ask what their abbreviations mean, or terminology or products which you do not understand

Point 3: leverage your compliance capability
proactively point to your compliance capabilities:
● BCM
● Auditor certifications (in our case ISAE 3402, ISO 27001, ISAE 3000)
● Tell them before they ask that you can deliver a compliance package
including everything they need.
○ availability
○ penetration tests
○ GDPR contracts
○ audit rights
● proactively commit the compliance requirements in your contracts and
point to it
● share the knowledge you gained in audits at other customers
44cleversoft group | all rights reserved

Senior Manager from Consulting Partner:cleversoft PRIIPs adaptor simply works, while the XXX Adaptor simply does not work. That is why we sell it to our clients.
46cleversoft group | all rights reserved

47cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 7: competitive landscape
● know your competitors

● be transparent about the advantages and disadvantages of your own solution
48cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 8: offer market insight & documentation & share it
● share what the peers think & do
○ provide as market study

49cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 8: offer market insight & documentation & share it
50cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 9: RFPs / aggressive pricing
employ the strategy with care:
● very strategic customer wins only
○ i.e. Condor Insurance => upsell to R+V Group
● RFPs
● consider making the money over time (run fee)
aggresive low prices can
sometimes really make
the difference
51cleversoft group | all rights reserved
Point 10: embrace new technology
