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.

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 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.

One of my clients wants to use shared services “teams” as they start their agile transformation. Their developers work on a product for months and years at a time. However, the testers and UI people are part of pools of people.
