Measuring and managing performance will always help you sort your resources efficiently, accelerate effort in areas where you are lacking, and invest more in areas where you are\u00a0growing. Once you have a clear sight of where you stand, you get a better picture of where you need to get next.<\/p>

But monitoring performance and growth is easier said than done. It always helps businesses to benchmark performance based on industry business cycle. If on an average in the industry it takes 2 days for closing a sale and you are able to make a sale in 4 days, then it means you are lagging behind. Either you are targeting the wrong customers or your strategies are not strong. In SaaS, benchmarking the number of days it takes for a visitor to sign-up or subscribes post his first visit, holds the key to understanding how well your website is optimized. If the average time it takes a user to convert is 2 weeks in the industry and your visitors are taking close to a month, it means you need to optimize for subscriptions.<\/p>

As per McKinsey<\/a>, a 20% annual growth means a 92 percent chance of ceasing to exist within a few years. You have to scale very rapidly or you will fail indefinitely. How can SaaS companies identify and measure whether they are scaling at this pace? Metrics help them stay on track.<\/p>

At the end of this article, you will be able to identify 24 metrics that SaaS companies<\/a> use for measuring and managing performance. A thorough understanding of these metrics will help you stay proactive to plan and achieve targets better.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/section><\/div> (more…)<\/span><\/a>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
