Use case
Advisory boards for SaaS companies
SaaS has the best-documented playbooks in business — and the most expensive ways to run them wrong. An advisory board of operators who've crossed your next ARR milestone converts their scar tissue into your roadmap.
The problems this solves
Pricing is guessed, not designed
Packaging and pricing moves are the highest-leverage decisions in SaaS and most teams make them twice a decade, badly.
The motion debate burns quarters
PLG, sales-led, or hybrid? Founders argue from blog posts; advisors argue from their own cohort data.
Metrics theater
A board-grade operator can tell within one meeting whether your NRR story will survive diligence.
The playbook
- 1
Seat your next stage, not your current one
At $1M ARR, recruit advisors from $10M journeys. You're buying foresight, not commiseration.
- 2
Quarterly pricing council
A standing advisor review of packaging, discounting, and expansion levers pays for itself in one cycle.
- 3
Pre-diligence twice a year
Run your metrics past advisors who've raised or sold — fix the story before investors find the holes.
