The State of Play in SaaS in 2023!

2020/2021 was the party of all parties in B2B SaaS, with companies growing at breakneck speed fueled by unprecedented amounts of venture capital raised at increasingly stratospheric valuations. But a tumultuous 2022 left people wondering when the array of challenges would start easing and when things would return to normal again. Now, well into 2023, we can see that the grey clouds have started to clear up, but it’s a new kind of normal that we’re fast approaching. Mikael Johnsson, Co-Founder and General Partner at Oxx, has been an investor through three historical market mega cycles, such as the one we’re currently going through, and here he shares his insight into what is happening, what to expect next and the overall state of play in SaaS in 2023.

Raise your prices!

"Raise your prices!" is a common investor-to-founder refrain. Going into 2023, pricing is popping up with increasing frequency in the boardroom. But while it's true that most SaaS companies would do well to review their pricing, that advice alone isn't actionable. In this session Ingrid Bonde Åkerlind, Principal, Oxx we'll go tactical. How do you know it's too low? Who should you involve? What does a pricing strategy look like? Where does pricing research fit in? How do you roll it out? What are some common mistakes to avoid?

The Memorable Marketing Formula: Winning In A Crowded Market

You're in a crowded category. You're not the leader. Everyone is copying everyone else's features, so you can't differentiate on product. Nobody wants to race to the bottom on price. So, how do you plan on grabbing market share? To this point, the only advice out there is "niche down". But let's be honest, you've come to far already, niching down isn't going to fly. So what do you do? You can't outspend the leader. And even if you could, is that really the best use of funds? There's a simple answer. You become the brand everyone wants to work with. And you do that by creating memorable marketing targeted to specific groups of individuals within your ICP. In this presentation, Todd Clouser, Marketing Evangelist we'll talk about the mindset shift it takes to go all-in on creating memorable experiences, and how you become the company your ideal customers want to have in their tech stack.
