SaaS & Technology marketing by Northbound Growth Advisory

Growth Marketing for SaaS & Technology Companies

Recurring revenue rewards efficiency. We build demand programs around your ICP and sales cycle, then report in the metrics your board actually reviews: CAC, pipeline, and net revenue retention.

The problem we solve

Pipeline efficiency decides whether growth is profitable.

Most SaaS marketing problems are not traffic problems. Demand arrives, trials start, and then the numbers stop connecting: acquisition cost climbs faster than expansion revenue, sales calls out lead quality, and nobody agrees on which channel is actually working.

Northbound works the whole equation. We define the ICP precisely enough to disqualify, build acquisition around the sales cycle rather than the content calendar, and instrument the funnel so the trade-off between volume and quality is a decision instead of an argument.

  • Demand programs built around your ICP and sales cycle
  • Product-led and sales-led motions aligned, not competing
  • Reporting in CAC, pipeline, and retention terms
  • Positioning that survives a competitive bake-off

Common questions

Frequently Asked Questions

We work best with businesses that have established product-market fit and revenue to reinvest. Before that point, most companies get more from founder-led sales than from a marketing retainer, and we will say so on the first call.

Yes. Where a self-serve motion exists we build acquisition and lifecycle programs around activation and expansion rather than demo requests, and align the two motions where both run.

We agree the metrics before work begins — typically qualified pipeline, acquisition cost by segment, and conversion through the stages you care about. Where revenue attribution is clean we report it; where it is not, we say so rather than inventing a number.

No. These are priority verticals where we bring direct leadership experience, not a restriction. If your business sits outside them and the fit is right, we are interested.
