KEY TAKEAWAYS
Proof Analytics is one of the world best and fastest automated revenue marketing and optimisation platform.
Customers are generally having substantial trust issues with saas companies, so are moving away from annual contracts and looking at more shorter-term, flexible solutions.
Proof Analytics allow customers to pay just $45 a month, this has resulted in them shortening their sales closing time from 6-9 months to just 2 weeks!
Being one of the first to automate market-mix modelling, has allowed proof Analytics to really dominate the space.
Hiring the right people is imperative to create a great company. Mark and Proof Analytics focus on getting the right people with the right values and don’t compromise. They want to ensure the team are fully aligned with their values and act in accordance with these.
You should hire slowly and take the time to get the right people. You can then fire quickly if needed, if they aren’t right for the role, particularly in a start-up, then cut your losses.
The brand work alongside the lower cost base of a monthly subscription has allowed Proof Analytics to grow substantially.
