In this week’s episode, we break down the latest performance from four major SaaS players - Rubrik, Asana, MongoDB, and CrowdStrike - and dig into what’s really going on under the hood.

We cover:

Rubrik’s wild growth (54% YoY!) and eye-watering 61% S&M spend
Asana’s GTM efficiency collapse and the uphill battle to cut costs
MongoDB’s consistent ARR gains and tighter OpEx discipline
CrowdStrike’s standout GRR and the implications of surging OPEX

Plus, two major topics impacting sales and AI:

Apple’s iOS 26 Call Screening - Is this the end of cold calling as we know it? We unpack how this default feature could derail outbound teams and change the GTM playbook for good.

Apple’s AI Paper: “The Illusion of Thinking” - A must-know for anyone building in AI. We explore how Apple challenges the current hype around large reasoning models (LRMs) and what this means for the road to AGI.

If you're deep in SaaS, sales strategy, or AI innovation, this is an episode you won’t want to miss.

In this video, Matt reflects on a recent cold call experience that felt like it came straight out of an 80s Wall Street movie — high-pressure, filled with buzzwords, and completely ignoring the prospect's actual needs. This outdated approach made him wonder: Are people still using this strategy in 2025?

Matt dives into why the old sales playbook no longer works and why the "pitch harder" method is leaving salespeople behind. Drawing from his own experience on both sides of the sales conversation, Matt shares practical, modern strategies that actually lead to successful sales outcomes in today’s world.

If you're in sales or just want to improve your outreach, here are the key takeaways:

1. Lead with the Problem, Not the Pitch: Rather than diving into product features, start by addressing the problem your prospect is facing. It’s about relevance and understanding their pain.
2. Ask to Discover, Not Deliver: Matt encourages salespeople to be more like doctors than salespeople — diagnose the problem before presenting a solution.
3. Know When to Walk Away: If the prospect isn’t a good fit, it's okay to move on. Wasting time on unqualified leads is counterproductive for everyone involved.
4. Share Insights, Not Just Features: Even if a prospect doesn’t buy, leave them with valuable insights that will make you memorable and position you as a trusted advisor.

Matt’s advice is simple but powerful: Stop following the outdated "pitch first" approach, and instead, focus on problem-solving and offering real value. This shift in mindset will help you build better relationships and see more successful sales outcomes.
