Original Summary

Hello founders 🤘 (thanks for your time) I feel stuck after 3 years that our 5 persons company make 30/40k € a month and never achieve to go up more than that. We got 200 clients so far. We do 300/400 cold calls a week, 25% closing rate so 5/6 new clients a month while 50% stay with us 6 months. We don’t have inbound, 10* of referrals, mostly of our acquisition is outbound. our margin are never less than 40% but the company need 12-15k monthly to run (we tried so bad to reduce, we cannot without alternating the quality of output and the way to scale and we pay ourselves 2k € a month with my co-founder) We are 2 sales founder (I took the technical part because I have a technical background) 🤓I have the gut feeling that we need to break something, change something deep (I tell you more at the end because I don’t want to influence you) I would love and be grateful to have your honest opinion and feedback ! (I might post in another community as well) Here the big picture : We are B2B hyper custom database agency mostly on the French market, we have 3 offers : - Managed classic data production (backed by our software) - SDR’s outsourcing (only for the money) - Consulting for high custom database production (here is where the value is the most seen and our difference is the most obvious) And Now we want to become a SAAS company (turn our internal tech and expertise accumulated so far) Our moves so far to try to scale : - We move our company to Singapore and ourselves in bkk but then we struggle to find (we never tried so much btw, that’s the problem lol) - we got a retention problem so we work a lot around that to go to more than 50% but we cannot keep people monthly paying for more than 9 months (only 5% will stay with us since the beginning) - We have hired 1 business dev, 1 virtual assistant, 1 B2B database builder, 2 apprenticeship in marketing, we training a junior SDR - We reducing the payment collecting to one week with new process - We made a partnership with an experienced agency for the SDR outsourcing, so basically this offer is just an apports d’affaires, we don’t do the delivery - We are full of SOP and ai systems process. While keeping some of the stuff manual because automation can be so improductive and bullshit, we usually wait manual results before automating. - We invest in a SEO freelance > go nowhere - We gonna starts ads next week - We post 2 times a day with 3 accounts on LinkedIn, 1/2 times a week on YouTube - We hire a branding agency My gut feeling is that maybe we do too much, our margin are good but with leads flow actually we don’t do so much Ney profit to invest heavily and test more so we are in endless cycle 🔁.. Our core and know expertise is in the high custom database production. What do you think guys ? Should we do full in one offer only ? In the SAAS ? As well, we don’t have enough leads for me Many thanks   submitted by   /u/Appropriate-Tax7692 [link]   [comments]
