A Roadmap to Building SaaS and Software Companies © 2023

Authors:

  • Charles Edge , 

  • Chip Pearson , 

  • Amy Larson Pearson

  • Explore strategies and tactics to build a sales pipeline and scale that up to a Series B company

  • Gain a working knowledge in disciplines required to grow a company

  • Raise the capital to sustain a company and potentially sell the company in the end

Modern startups are on an assembly line from seed to later-stage series financing. As they make that journey, founders need to have a working knowledge of dozens of fields if they’re going to scale a company. SaaS is a unique set of skills across those disciplines.

This book focuses on gaining a working understanding of what specialists will do in those fields as an organization grows and how founders can leverage the basics to get those capabilities started so once professionals are hired in each, they can hit the ground running with authentic materials. Founders will be pulled in a lot of directions as they find success, so the book looks at what to do with each discipline at each stage of growth.

The hardest part to creating a startup is to just start the thing. This book covers when to bootstrap, apply to accelerators, seek seed capital – and where to do those things. It also covers some of the earlier questions like how to write a mission statement, where to find investors, what technical stacks to use, how to HR, how to sell, and more importantly, when a founder should spend time on each discipline. A way to look at the tech stack and the ever-changing landscape to keep technical debt low and the ability to respond to ever-changing market forces high. 

What You’ll Learn

  • The nuts and bolts of which type of corporation to found, impacts to taxes, equity, and of course more philosophy.
  • Researching, pricing, and planning to take that wonderful innovation to market and expanding into a portfolio.
  • Leadership styles—each has its place and so we look at ways to level up that domain 
  • Management—going beyond inspiration, from those regularly scheduled meetings to helping people grow to task managemen.
  • Basic accounting and finance skills with terms and guidance on revenue treatment

Who This Book Is For

People thinking of or starting asoftware/SaaS company. Could be useful for first timers or those on their third startup.

Book description

If you’re new to software product management or just want to learn more about it, there’s plenty of advice available—but most of it is geared toward consumer products. Creating high-quality software for the enterprise involves a much different set of challenges. In this practical book, two expert product managers provide straightforward guidance for people looking to join the thriving enterprise market.

Authors Blair Reeves and Benjamin Gaines explain critical differences between enterprise and consumer products, and deliver strategies for overcoming challenges when building for the enterprise. You’ll learn how to cultivate knowledge of your organization, the products you build, and the industry you serve.

Explore why:

  • Identifying customer vs user problems is an enterprise project manager’s main challenge
  • Effective collaboration requires in-depth knowledge of the organization
  • Analyzing data is key to understanding why users buy and retain your product
  • Having experience in the industry you’re building products for is valuable
  • Product longevity depends on knowing where the industry is headed

Bibliographical Study Papers

A Bibliographical Study of Software Product Management Research

Publisher: IEEE Sami HyrynsalmiArho SuominenMarko Seppänen Software Product Management (SPM) is a relatively young research area which aims to understand how to productise a software product or a service as well as how to align it with the organisation’s strategy. While the research of an academic discipline of SPM started to emerge as yearly as 1990s, the most impactful works have been published during 2006–2007. To understand how this young field has emerged and developed, this paper presents a bibliometric study on SPM publications found from Scopus (n=142). The identified studies have been produced by a small set of authors and institutions, which are mainly located in Europe. By using Bibliographic Coupling and Co-Citation metrics, the study shows that Software Product Management literature is drawing from several different related fields. Furthermore, the studied literature is tightly interconnected. The study also shows that the SPM field might be lacking a coherent intellectual background and new openings due to scattered research foci. To prevent this development, this work calls for a formation of a shared research agenda for the Software Product Management field. https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/abstract/document/9570214

A comprehensive overview of software product management challenges

The principal focus of software product management is to ensure the economic success of the product, which means to prolong the product life as much as possible with modest expenditures to maximizs profits. Software product managers play an important role in the software development organization while being responsible for the strategy, business case, product roadmap, high-level requirements, product deployment (release-management), and retirement plan. This article explores the problems that affect the software product management process, their perceived frequency and perceived severity. The data were collected by a systematic literature review (5 main databases were analyzed), interviews (10 software product managers from IT companies), and surveys (89 participants). 95 software product management problems assigned nonexclusively to 7 areas were identified. 27 commonly mentioned software product management problems were evaluated for their perceived frequency and perceived severity. The problems perceived as the most frequent are: determining the true value of the product that the customer needs, strategy and priorities change frequently, technical debt, working in silos, and balancing between reactive and proactive work. In total, 95 problems have been identified which have been narrowed down to 27 problems based on their occurrence in at least 3 interviews. These selected problems were prioritized by perceived frequency and perceived severity. Some of the identified problems spanned beyond the software product management process itself, but they all affect the work of software product managers.

The role of software product management is key for building, implementing and managing software products. However, although there is prominent research on software product management (SPM) there are few studies that explore how this role is rapidly changing due to digitalization and digital transformation of the software-intensive industry. In this paper, we study how key trends such as DevOps, data and artificial intelligence (AI), and the emergence of digital ecosystems are rapidly changing current SPM practices. Whereas earlier, product management was concerned with predicting the outcome of development efforts and prioritizing requirements based on these predictions, digital technologies require a shift towards experimental ways-of-working and hypotheses to be tested. To support this change, and to provide guidelines for future SPM practices, we first identify the key challenges that software-intensive embedded systems companies experience with regards to current SPM practices. Second, we present an empirically derived framework for strategic digital product management (SPM4AI) in which we outline what we believe are key practices for SPM in the age of AI.

Abstract

The product manager (PM) role is well established in leading technological companies, such as Google, Amazon, Microsoft, and Facebook. PMs are responsible for integrating technical, design, and business perspectives when developing software products and product portfolios. In agile methods (e.g., Scrum), similar responsibilities are linked to the Product Owner (PO) role. In contrast, in large-scale agile, one can find both Product Owners and product managers who sometimes compete. Despite the widespread adoption of the product manager role, the attention toward it in the agile academic community has been surprisingly limited. In this multiple case study, we analyzed 17 interviews with 11 product managers from four agile companies. We found that the PMs facilitated continuous product experimentation and innovation, supported the product teams, and engaged in additional activities to achieve optimal product development. Our summary of the product management activities can guide product managers working in agile companies.

Influence of Software Product Management Maturity on Usage of Artefacts in Agile Software Development

local: wagenaar2017.pdf

Product-Focused Software Process Improvement(PROFES 2017)

Context: Agile software development (ASD) uses ‘agile’ artefacts such as user stories and product backlogs as well as ‘non-agile’ artefacts, for instance designs and test plans. Rationales for incorporating especially non-agile artefacts by an agile team mainly remain unknown territory. Goal: We start off to explore influences on artefacts usage, and state our research question as: To what extent does maturity relate to the usage of artefacts in ASD in software product organizations? Method: In our multiple case study 14 software product organizations were visited where software product management maturity was rated and their artefacts usage listed. Results: We found maturity to be negatively correlated with the non-agile/all artefacts ratio. In other words, the more mature software product management is, the fewer non-agile artifacts are used in ASDConclusions: This suggests that an organizational factor influences an agile team in its artifacts usage, contradictory to the concept of self-organizing agile teams.

Included in the following conference series:

Reference models available for process assessment and improvement in various domains are often criticized to be too generic or unable to capture industry, domain, or company specific requirements. Although typically a plethora of process reference-like models and other best practice resources are available to potentially close the criticized gaps, companies are reluctant to move towards the implied multi-model-based process management approaches or to customize or extend existing models according their proprietary needs. Approaches and methods to develop, enhance or customize available models or to integrate multiple models are often not satisfactorily understood and far away from being industry practice. The goal of the research underlying this paper is thus to support the development and enhancement of process reference models for complex industry contexts. As a sample domain the area of product development and management in the software and systems engineering domain is used. The paper analyses the development of four industry-driven model development cases to identify their model development contexts and goals as well as development strategies, approaches, and related rationales. The aim of the paper is to contribute to the understanding of how process reference models are developed and how they can be enhanced or adapted to broader and more complex contexts in order to deliver value and competitive advantage to the respective businesses.

Enterprise Product Management in the Digital World

https://link.springer.com/chapter/10.1007/978-3-030-01659-3_13 (local nikolova2019.pdf)

Smart Technologies and Innovation for a Sustainable Future

In the digital era, businesses in any industry are being transformed fundamentally to stay competitive. Innovation is increasingly shaped by changes in technology, development methodologies, and the ways in which consumers make purchase decisions, demanding changes throughout the entire lifecycle of a digital product. The lifecycle of digital products becomes more and more complex with the need to embrace new business models for creative businesses, including the increasing role of business networks and collaboration to offer related products and services. Product management in the digital world is thus transformed to include data-driven decision making, collaborative ownership, incremental thinking, and continuous learning.

Abstract

Software product management (SPM) as a discipline includes many practices like product and release planning, market analysis, roadmapping, and product lifecycle management. Product management frameworks prescribe these practices but companies seldom adopt all of them. We conducted a state-of-practice survey with the aim to investigate how companies adopt SPM practices and how this practical experience fits together with the framework suggested by International Software Product Management Association (ISPMA). The results of this study showed that ISPMA SPM Framework describes core product management practices well but the impact of product management practices to the final product success remains ambiguous.

Abstract

Developing product software is getting increasing attention from both academics and practitioners. Organizations are recognizing the benefits and importance of developing a product for a market. Also, several software companies that develop customer-specific software have identified a need to change to developing and selling product software. Since few studies are available in this domain, it is difficult for organizations to handle such a transformation. In this research, we introduce the productization process that describes the transformation from developing customer-specific software to product software.

Abstract

The quality of processes in Software Product Management (SPM) has a high impact on the success of a software product, as it improves product quality and prevents release delays. To improve the SPM practice, we propose the maturity matrix for SPM, a focus area oriented maturity model concentrating on the SPM functions Requirements Management, Release Planning, Product Roadmapping, and Portfolio Management. In this paper, we describe the development of the SPM maturity matrix, consisting of (a) identification and description of capabilities, (b) positioning the capabilities at the right levels in the maturity matrix and (c) validating the maturity matrix with expert validation and a survey among 45 product managers and product management experts. The result is a validated maturity matrix that will guide further development of methodical support in SPM.

Abstract

[Context and motivation] This paper seeks to understand the essential product management challenges that one software product company has recently started to face. [Question/problem] The paper illustrates how the case company, Maestro, has been forced to adjust its management style due to the increasingly complex and turbulent business environment. The paper further illustrates how the evolving management style has affected the way product requirements are managed. [Principal ideas/results] The comparison of our results with existing product management literature suggests that traditional product management approaches are becoming increasingly inadequate to deal with growing amounts of interpretations, requirements interdependencies and market turbulence**. [Contribution]** The findings of this paper indicate a need for examining literature from management and organizational sciences in order to expand the traditional view of requirements models as static and purely design-time entities towards new kinds of approaches that are more effective in dealing with complexity and turbulence. The paper eventually results with an identification of research gaps and important topics for future research.

Abstract

Within the software industry, one can recognize a strong trend towards productization, which is the transformation process from customer-specific software to a standard product. Organizations that originally focussed on building custom software regularly reorient towards a market. In order to grow into a mature product software company, an organization has to introduce and adapt its software product management processes. This paper presents a case study on how software product management processes evolve during the stages of productization at a small software company. We identify productization stages at the case company and describe the situational factors and implemented software product management capabilities during those stages. The paper provides a validation of the productization model, and insight into the development of SPM processes in relation to the productization stages.

Abstract

Software product management is generally expected to link and integrate business and product related goals with core software engineering and software life cycle activities. Empirical research demonstrates the positive effect of mature software product management practices on key software development performance indicators. Nevertheless, the various frameworks available for software product management have distinct and diverse focus points, are often linked or incorporated with specific development paradigms, or lack integration with or addressing of core software engineering activities. On the other hand, traditional software process improvement approaches generally lack the provision of explicit or detailed software product management activities. – In this paper we build on the results of preceding research on identifying a lack of software product management practices within ISO/IEC 12207 and on deriving key outcomes of software product management activities from selected software product management frameworks. Based on these results we propose a process reference model for software product management that can be integrated with the process reference model as defined in ISO/IEC 12207 for software life cycle processes.

Abstract

The importance of product management in the software industry is widely recognized and empirically validated. Despite its importance, the maturity level of software product management in companies is low, many companies struggle with the challenge of introducing product management. This paper describes a real-world industry experience report of a product management introduction project in a banking and retail IT Solutions Company. We illustrate the initial situation before the product management introduction project, the approach that has been pursued within the project, the challenges of the first year and the experiences that have been made.

Comparison of Software Product Management Practices in SMEs and Large Enterprises

Software Business(ICSOB 2012)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing ((LNBIP,volume 114))

Included in the following conference series:

Abstract

The aim of this interpretive qualitative study was to understand how software product management (SPM) activities differ in SMEs (small and medium-sized enterprises) and in large enterprises (LEs). We studied thirteen software organizations representing various types of software products and analyzed the collected data by applying the grounded theory method. As a result, we summarized the observations, explaining the main differences between SMEs and LEs and identified SPM activities that are size-dependent, size-independent, and specific for SMEs and LEs only. Our results indicate that the company size affects goals and activities of SPM. Therefore, companies of different size require different approaches in the adoption of SPM activities.

Software Product Management and Agile Software Development: Conflicts and Solutions

Software for People

Part of the book series: Management for Professionals ((MANAGPROF))

Abstract

Agile software development has been established over the last 15 years as a popular development approach. In a time when speed of change is of utmost importance, agile approaches are often the most appropriate roads to success. They do not only change the way development is performed, but they also impact other parties involved in development projects, in particular the software product manager. Software companies are faced with the question how software product management and agile development can work together in an optimal way. Who is responsible for requirements? Is the software product manager automatically the designated “product owner” (Scrum)? Or is “product owner” a new and separate role? Does he/she replace the software product manager?

The Software Product Management Framework which has been developed by the International Software Product Management Association (ISPMA e.V., www.ispma.org) provides orientation. It can be used as a helpful tool to make the change process towards agile development successful.

Framework for Implementing Product Portfolio Management in Software Business

Software Project Management in a Changing World

Abstract

Whether a software product company takes up a project depends on the strategic decisions that are made with regard to an organization’s products. A software project needs to fit strategic goals and enable an organization to realize a vision through its software products. Making decisions on a strategic level, however, requires information of several related topics including technological trends and the product’s life cycle and surpasses the scope of an individual software project. Instead, these decisions are made on the level of the product portfolio. Product Portfolio Management (PPM) holds that an organization has to manage investment decisions over time following profit and risk criteria. Given the multitude of relevant topics and the interrelatedness between these topics, it has proven difficult to implement PPM processes in software businesses. To this end, we created the Portfolio Implementation Framework (PIF) consisting of (a) a competence model, giving an overview of the critical topics; (b) process-deliverable diagrams, which provide an implementation path for product portfolio management processes; and (c) a maturity matrix that comprises 32 capabilities, which should be realized during implementation. The maturity matrix also serves as an instrument for industry to assess, compare and improve portfolio management processes across organizations. The framework provides a holistic view on a step-by-step PPM process implementation and has proved its applicability in practice.

Productization of an IT Service Firm

Software Business. Towards Continuous Value Delivery(ICSOB 2014)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing ((LNBIP,volume 182))

Included in the following conference series:

Abstract

Two types of businesses dominate the landscape of the IT industry: service businesses that develop tailor-made software based on customer specific needs on the one hand, and software businesses that develop standard software products based on market needs on the other hand. The so-called productization process enables software companies to perform a business transformation from customer specific service-driven to a product business. This research aims to evaluate to what extent the proposed productization process is applicable in a service-oriented company using seven theory-testing case studies within the context of one IT service firm. The results indicate that the productization process cannot be applied to its full extent, since most of the product-driven processes are not mature, which is largely caused by a lack of knowledge about the productization process in service firms.

The Preliminary Results from the Software Product Management State-of-Practice Survey

Software Business. Towards Continuous Value Delivery(ICSOB 2014)

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Business Information Processing ((LNBIP,volume 182))

Included in the following conference series:

Abstract

Software product management (SPM) as a discipline includes many practices like product and release planning, market analysis, roadmapping, and product lifecycle management. Product management frameworks prescribe these practices but companies seldom adopt all of them. We conducted a state-of-practice survey with the aim to investigate how companies adopt SPM practices and how this practical experience fits together with the framework suggested by International Software Product Management Association (ISPMA). The results of this study showed that ISPMA SPM Framework describes core product management practices well but the impact of product management practices to the final product success remains ambiguous.

About this book

Matthias Bertram aims to develop a deeper understanding of software customization and its strategic role for software product management. Drawing on the conceptual foundation of the resource-based view of the firm, such as resources, capabilities, and dynamic capabilities, the author conducts two qualitative investigations: the first within vendor and customer firms to develop an in-depth understanding of the value of software customization as well as the vendor resources and capabilities necessary to successfully provide software customization and the second on the vendor’s dynamic capabilities necessary to generate temporary competitive advantage from software customization in product management activities.

JHC Hooft - 2013 - studenttheses.uu.nl Currently there are software vendors that want to move form customer specific software to a standard software product. A software product can be governed by software product management (SPM) and the productization process describes the process a software vendor undergoes to change from customer specific software to a standard software product. Currently the SPM capabilities are not linked to a stage of the productization process. This exploratory research links the SPM capabilities to a stage of the productization process, identifies the investments in terms of working days that are related to a SPM capability and identifies change aspects that should be considered for the implementation of SPM during the productization process. The results of this research are an overview of the SPM capabilities implemented at the case company during each stage of the productization process and the investments in terms of working days related to these SPM capabilities. A preliminary framework is created that links the SPM capabilities to a stage of the productization process. And lastly a set of guidelines is identified from literature that indicates the aspects of change that should be considered for the implementation of SPM during the productization process. … The lack of guidelines in terms of investments, SPM capabilities to be implemented and change aspects for moving to the next stage in the productization process as described in section 1 leads to the following research question: RQ: When should software product management capabilities be implemented in the productization process and what chance aspects and investment are needed to implement these capabilities?

To answer the research question the following four sub questions will be answered:

SQ1. What is Software Product Management and productization? SQ2. Which SPM capability can be linked to which productization stage? SQ3. What are the investments associated with these SPM capabilities? SQ4. Which aspects of process change and which success factors should be considered for the introduction of SPM during the productization process?

[PDF] Improving software product management processes: a detailed view of the product software knowledge infrastructure

Improving_Software_Product_Management_Pr.pdf

K VlaanderenI Van De Weerd… - Utrecht, The …, 2010 - academia.edu

abstract Nowadays, a huge amount of software is being developed worldwide. Mainly among SMEs (small-to-medium enterprises), there are a lot of companies that focus on the development of product software. In order to manage software products effectively, implementing software product management processes in the organization is essential. Unfortunately, hardly any schooling is available in the area of SPM. In this thesis, a beginning will be made with the elaboration of a product software knowledge infrastructure (PSKI) that should help companies improve their product management process using method increments. The foundation for this elaboration lies in data about the current state of SPM, gathered from six product software companies. Also, two techniques will be elaborated that are a fundamental part of the PSKI. In addition to this, a core aspect of the PSKI is elaborated in a proof-of-concept. Combined, these deliverables form a strong basis for further research.

Abstract. Within the software industry, one can recognize a strong trend towards productization, which is the transformation process from customer-specific software to a standard product. Organizations that originally focussed on building custom software regularly reorient towards a market. In order to grow into a mature product software company, an organization has to introduce and adapt its software product management processes. This paper presents a case study on how software product management processes evolve during the stages of productization at a small software company. We identify productization stages at the case company and describe the situational factors and implemented software product management capabilities during those stages. The paper provides a validation of the productization model, and insight into the development of SPM processes in relation to the productization stages.

Model-driven assessment in software product management

K VlaanderenI van de Weerd… - … Workshop on Software …, 2010 - ieeexplore.ieee.org

The maturity of Software Product Management (SPM) in software companies is generally low. In order to enhance the overall maturity of SPM in the industry, we are developing a Knowledge infrastructure that helps product managers in increasing their knowledge of the field and improving the SPM processes in their organization. An important part of this infrastructure is the assessment of a company’s current situation. This paper presents a novel approach to assessing a company’s SPM processes, by deducing its maturity based on process-deliverable diagrams. The approach is implemented using MetaCase’s MetaEdit+, and evaluated in seven cases.
