Today on the show we have Emeric Ernoult, the Founder and CEO of Agorapulse.

In this episode, Emeric shares his experience navigating Agorapulse’s bold pivot from serving SMBs to targeting mid-market and enterprise clients.

We then discussed the challenges of combating endemic churn, why moving upmarket was critical for growth, and the lessons learned from multiple pivots along the way.

We wrapped up by discussing the complexities of scaling a SaaS business while bootstrapped, including how to align product, marketing, and sales when shifting to a new customer segment.
