  • Infographic answering "What should I get out of a B2B SaaS growth audit?" with a 3x3 grid of nine outcomes: one consolidated view of your business across paid, lifecycle, data, product, UX, and finance; numbers reconciled across teams often for the first time; quick wins you can execute inside the first two weeks; a clear answer on where paid spend is leaking and if it should be paused; the highest-leverage tracking gaps identified and given solutions; a prioritized 90-day roadmap ranked by impact and effort; every fix assigned to an owner; initiatives sequenced into 0-30, 31-60, and 61-90 day buckets; and a standalone document you can execute with an embedded team or in-house. Branded by MAVAN, with red line-art data visualizations in the background showing growth charts, funnels, and analytics dashboards.

    What Happens in the First 30 Days of a B2B SaaS Growth Audit?

    The first 30 days of a MAVAN growth audit delivers three things. First, a single, consolidated view of your business — data, paid, lifecycle, product, and finance — written down in one place and reconciled across teams, often for the first time. Second, the quick wins your team can execute in week two without waiting: pausing the paid waste, fixing the highest-leverage tracking gap, and getting the silos in one room. Third, a prioritized 90-day roadmap, with action items scored and assigned, that sequences exactly what to do first, second, and third — with or without us.

The dramatic size difference between the bars illustrates one of the most expensive go-to-market mistakes in B2B SaaS: using a single GTM motion across three fundamentally different buyer segments.

    1 GTM Motion Is The Biggest Mistake B2B SaaS Companies Make

    One go-to-market motion cannot serve SMB, mid-market, and enterprise at once — their decision timelines, buying committees, and budget scrutiny are fundamentally different. Run product-led growth for SMB, sales-assist for mid-market, and account-based marketing for enterprise as three coordinated motions inside one company.

  • Featured image for MAVAN article. Title on image asks "What 3 Growth Disciplines Does B2B SaaS Need to Adopt from Mobile Gaming?" featuring Sam McLellan, VP of Growth at MAVAN, alongside an upward growth chart with three highlighted disciplines: full-funnel attribution from first ad touch to closed deal, breaking CAC down by ICP and platform, and tiered bidding that treats high-LTV accounts differently.

    What Can B2B SaaS Learn About CAC, Attribution, And The First Growth Hire (From Mobile Gaming)?

    Mobile gaming teams have operated with granular attribution, segmented CAC, and whale-tier bidding for over a decade. B2B SaaS companies adopting the same three disciplines see clearer unit economics, faster optimization, and fewer wasted first growth hires.
