How to Transform a Sales Training Company into SaaS Company in 12 Months with Mario Martinez, CEO of Vengreso

Mario Martinez is the CEO of Vengreso and joins Ryan in this episode to talk through how he transitioned a 7-way merger sales company into a SaaS company, which he is now also taking global! Mario also talks about the evolution and future in business, SaaS and AI for the knowledge worker and the unique ways you can utilise Podcasting and LinkedIn to market and create organic leads.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • Vengreso focuses on a product-led growth strategy with a sales-led motion
  • Social media influence is a huge opportunity, Mario spends most of his time on Twitter and LinkedIn as this is where most of the b2b salespeople are including sales reps and marketing leaders
  • FlyMSG is a unique product that doesn’t only utilise snip technology across app platforms but also utilises AI to help form replies and responses for you.
  • You can’t plan for every eventuality but what you can do is recognise trends and patterns early and react to them.
  • Research, identify and adjust plans, keeping yourself agile as a leader and company.
  • Teaching himself product design and product development is how Mario turned himself into a sales leader, sales influencer and marketing leader. He is now asked by Fortune 100 companies to air them with their marketing strategies!
  • Mario believes that start-up leaders have to be ‘scrappy’, making decisions quickly, taking risks and investing themselves completely in whatever they do.
  • If you want to be a business owner, a start-up founder, you better make sure the only thing that impacts is yourself. This will incentivize you to eliminate the pain as soon as you can or make you quit early if it is not for you.
  • The goal of FlyMSG is to streamline the lost productivity in the knowledge worker, which is trillions of dollars worth of productivity a year!
  • Write down 20 questions that your buyer would ask to lead to them needing your product, for your product to solve their problems. Then create content around this.

“83% of all users said that they actually use the same message one time or more over a month, 61% said they do it daily”

“I’d like to say I was smart enough that I planned the whole thing out, but I wasn’t, I was smart enough to see the trend though”

“Make the sacrifice, at the stage you’re at, to make it a reality”
