What are KPIs? Key performance indicators (KPIs) are metrics that measure how your product is doing. Effective KPIs help you understand if your product is creating the desired value for the users, the customers, and the business. Without KPIs, you end up guessing how well your product is performing. It’s like driving a car with your vision blurred: You can’t see if you are heading in the right direction or getting closer to your destination.

Customer segmentation is a classic marketing concept for good reason. There’s a high chance that not all of your customers have the same type of business, come from the same part of the world, or even use your product in the same way. The larger your SaaS empire becomes, the more likely this is to be the case. Source: me.me. If we assume that not all customers are the same, it would be futile to give all of them the same generic product tour (oh hey Intercom!).

In Intercom, we believe that shipping is our company’s heartbeat. Our product engineers are empowered to build great features, fast. A large part of making this belief a reality is the idea of running less software. Every product team is burdened by the effort required to evolve and maintain complex infrastructure that powers their features. For this reason, we chose to run exclusively on AWS and wherever possible, we make use of battle-tested AWS services, be it RDS Aurora for our relational

Business outcomes vs product features: how do your sales demos stack up? In many cases, the product silos that exist within product management become transparent to buyers during the sales cycle, creating the perception you’ve got a bunch of fragmented products instead of integrated solutions. Longer and more difficult sales cycles lie ahead if this is the case.
