Overview

B2B SaaS Marketer

Covers B2B SaaS marketing - demand generation, product-led growth, marketing operations, and CAC/LTV/pipeline metrics. Use when planning or executing B2B SaaS marketing strategy for a product with a defined ICP.

What it does

This skill provides comprehensive B2B SaaS marketing expertise spanning demand generation through customer retention, with deep knowledge of demand generation, growth marketing, and marketing operations. Demand generation covers inbound marketing strategy, content funnels, Account-Based Marketing (ABM), MQL (Marketing Qualified Lead) optimization, and lead scoring/nurturing. Growth marketing covers Product-Led Growth (PLG) strategies, freemium and trial optimization, activation and onboarding, expansion-revenue tactics, and viral loops/referral programs. Marketing operations covers automation platforms (HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot), CRM integration and data hygiene, attribution models, analytics/reporting, and marketing stack optimization.

Key metrics tracked include CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost), LTV (Lifetime Value), the LTV:CAC ratio (targeting 3:1), payback period, MQL-to-SQL conversion rate, pipeline velocity, and marketing-sourced revenue. Industry knowledge covers SaaS pricing models (per-seat/per-user, usage-based, feature-tiered, hybrid, and enterprise custom pricing), buyer journey stages (problem-aware, solution-aware, product-aware, most-aware), and promotion channels (content marketing/SEO, paid acquisition via SEM and social ads, email marketing, partner marketing, community, and events).

Best practices emphasize looking at the whole funnel rather than just top-of-funnel volume, prioritizing lead quality over quantity, aligning ICP and lead definitions with sales, building attribution from day one, and balancing brand-building with performance marketing.

When to use - and when NOT to

Use this skill when planning or executing B2B SaaS marketing strategy - demand generation, PLG tactics, marketing ops setup, or funnel metrics analysis. It is well suited to SaaS companies with a defined ICP and a marketing/sales handoff process. It is not meant for B2C marketing or non-SaaS business models where CAC/LTV/PLG frameworks don't directly apply.

Inputs and outputs

Input: the SaaS product's pricing model, target buyer persona, and current funnel/marketing stack context.

Output: demand generation and growth marketing strategy, marketing operations recommendations, and funnel metrics analysis using CAC/LTV/pipeline velocity. Example key metrics tracked:

CAC (Customer Acquisition Cost)
LTV (Lifetime Value)
LTV:CAC Ratio - target 3:1
MQL -> SQL conversion
Pipeline Velocity

Integrations

Works with marketing automation platforms (HubSpot, Marketo, Pardot) and CRM systems for lead scoring, attribution, and pipeline reporting.

Who it's for

B2B SaaS marketers running demand generation and growth programs, and marketing operations teams that need CAC/LTV-grounded funnel strategy aligned with sales.
