Anand Jain on building a successful global SAAS business and pricing it right

Building it Up with Bertelsmann

“Why is there so much spam in the world!?” In the process of answering this question, CleverTap grew from being a group of engineers tinkering code, to a global SaaS company.

Co-founder & Chief Strategy Officer of Clevertap, Anand Jain, believes that the first step to building a global company is to “remind yourself that the problems you are solving are universal”. If you are building your product keeping the customer in mind, then no borders can constrain your company’s reach. But with no sales team until 2018 and having monetized the product only after their Series A funding, going global wasn’t an easy feat for them.

Building a global company requires one to ask tough questions – How do you hire for a global company? When and how do you monetize your product? How big a role does your sales team play in establishing the early reach of your company? How low does your churn rate need to be?
