The Fragmented Reality of GTM Systems A revenue leader reviews a target account before a quarterly planning meeting. The CRM shows a healthy opportunity. Marketing data suggests rising engagement. Intent signals show research into competitors. A hiring alert shows a […]
The Feature Pitch Is Not Enough B2B SaaS companies have spent years explaining what their products do. That worked reasonably well when the product was a system of record, workflow tool, or analytics layer. AI changes the sales conversation because […]
The Product Is Not the Raw Material One of the more useful ways to understand AI in B2B software is to stop thinking about it as a feature for a moment. AI is starting to behave more like a productive […]
Recent Report Publications: Mitratech: State of HR Compliance 2026 Study The State of HR Compliance Report, developed through survey research and analysis conducted by the 3Sixty Insights team in collaboration with Mitratech, examines how organizations are navigating the growing complexity […]
Pricing Gets Pulled Into The Workflow The first two articles in this thread focused on AI execution and the GTM interface layer. But once AI systems move from assistance to action, another question becomes harder to avoid: how does the business meter, price, package, govern, bill, […]
Executive Summary SaaS pricing has evolved by expanding dimensionality. Seats defined the early era of subscription software. Secondary metrics such as contacts, storage, and API volume introduced more precise alignment between usage intensity and revenue capture. Cloud infrastructure later normalized […]
The Desk Is Moving The MCP story is useful because it gives us a concrete signal to look at. But after sitting with the broader market scan, I do not think the bigger story is really about a protocol. The […]
For the last year, much of the AI conversation in GTM has focused on assistants. Sellers get writing help. Marketers get content suggestions. Customer teams get summaries. Those use cases matter, but a different pattern is emerging across revenue technology. AI systems are […]
Here is a great little story on how one GTM team made a software purchase decision. It’s something I believe is a good reminder if you’re still thinking in terms of feature comparisons and vendor evaluations. Most teams are no longer trying to find the best tool, they’re trying to find something that works […]
The Signal People buy from people they trust. That’s not new. What is changing is when that trust gets built, and who is responsible for creating it. In a growing number of go-to-market teams, that responsibility is shifting earlier in the process. Not to sales, but to marketing. The SDR […]
From Alignment to Elimination For years, B2B companies have tried to solve the same problem: how to get sales and marketing aligned. Fifteen years ago, when I was at HubSpot, we called it smarketing. Weekly meetings, shared definitions, handoff agreements. […]
From AI Feature to Customer System There was a time when customer support software had a clear job: Capture tickets, route them, and help teams respond faster. That model still exists, but it is increasingly misaligned with what customers actually […]
When Friction Becomes the Signal For most growing teams, the decision to replace a CRM does not start with a formal evaluation process. It starts with friction. At MX8 Labs, that friction had been building for a while. The team […]
A Simple Example That Isn’t So Simple Pulling on another thread from Conga Connect 2026, one of the more interesting conversations I had during the week was with Geoff Webb, VP Product and Portfolio Marketing at Conga. While much of […]
I was at Conga Connect 2026 last week and had the chance to witness something you don’t see very often in B2B technology. A brand redesign revealed live to customers. Not teased on social media. Not rolled out quietly through […]
I spent this past week at Conga Connect 2026, speaking with customers, executives, and operators across the revenue ecosystem. The brand reveal will likely be the moment most attendees remember from the event. I covered that story separately. But […]
This 3Sixty Insights infographic examines how one organization rebuilt a fragile SDR engine after realizing that its outbound motion had become overly dependent on email and weighed down by a costly “Franken-stack” of tools such as ZoomInfo, Groove, and Gong. […]
This infographic, based on analysis from Kyle James, examines the hidden cost of the typical “Franken-stack” sales environment where multiple disconnected tools handle data, engagement, calling, and analytics. This fragmentation creates a significant productivity drain as teams spend hours each […]
Last week I wrote that SaaS isn’t dying. It’s being sorted. Thin workflow tools are under pressure, systems of record are becoming infrastructure, and the era of easy multiple expansion is behind us. That conversation was about repricing. This one is about rewiring. Underneath the market […]
I was super early at HubSpot, a first one hundred employee. I watched the company go public. I used some of the gains from that IPO to put a down payment on my house. It was one of those rare moments where a long bet actually paid […]
