clawhub install saas-marketing-playbook

What you get after installing:

  • Stage-specific tool recommendations (analytics, CRM, email by budget)

Stop guessing which marketing tools to buy. This playbook maps the right stack to your stage.

  • Tool recommendations: Analytics, attribution, email, CRM — by stage and budget
  • Channel prioritization: Which channels work at $0, $10K, and $100K/mo spend
  • Content marketing engine: SEO, blog, comparison pages, and distribution
  • Paid acquisition: When to start, how to test, and when to kill campaigns
  • Metrics framework: North star metrics, leading indicators, and reporting cadence

B2B Content & Channel Economics (2026 field notes)

The 80/20 content formula that converts

Winning B2B content spends 80% of the airtime on how you made customers successful and only 20% on yourself. Same logic applies to sales decks: open in the buyer's own words about the pain, then present the fix — never features-first.

Partner channels as a marketing multiplier

Before hiring for channel marketing, price the partner motion:

Tier Economics
Reseller (referral only) 10–20% fee
Silver partner — >$100K annual sales 15%
Gold partner — >$300K annual sales 20%

Wholesale at 80% of list price, resale capped at 1.2x list. Due-diligence trio for any prospective partner: track record (what did they carry before?), customer origin, and reseller vs service-partner intent. Below roughly $2–3M revenue, partner ecosystems replace overseas offices entirely — top products share as much as 50% with distribution partners.

Size the marketing plan against revenue math

Anchor the annual plan to one of two $1M-ARR skeletons: nine ~$100K enterprise engagements, or five hundred $200/yr self-serve subscriptions. The skeleton dictates the stack — the enterprise leg needs ABM tooling and case-study production; the self-serve leg needs SEO, lifecycle email, and conversion instrumentation. Funding both stacks at once is how sub-$1M teams overspend.

One hard-won pricing note

When prospects push for custom work your roadmap doesn't want, don't refuse — quote it at a premium (pad the person-days). The quote filters; the relationship survives.
