Growth Stage by FastSpring

You might be familiar with the great promise of Product Led Growth (PLG). As the story goes, PLG is based on the notion that the value a product delivers and how easy it is to adopt and share will lead to self-sustaining increases in product adoption and less reliance on human intervention to get the deal done. The expected result is more new revenue at higher profits. While this can often be true, organizations have realized that in order to increase ARPU and unlock massive new channels ARR, they need to couple PLG with a sales-led growth strategy. But can Product and Sales motions work together effectively?
