Growth Machines: Combining Product-Led Growth and Sales
Finding the right moment to activate the sales team | Susann Johansen, Oneflow
In this episode of the Growth Machines podcast, I speak with Susann Johansen, Head of Growth and User Experience at OneFlow, about how they introduced Product-Led Growth at Oneflow, a traditionally sales-led company.
Susans shares the evolution of OneFlow's go-to-market strategy, the challenges of implementing a freemium model, and the nuances of segmenting and scoring product-qualified leads (PQLs).
She also highlights the collaborative efforts between product, marketing, and sales teams to align on the right timing and approach for customer outreach.
Our conversation covers the varying success of PLG across different regions and the interplay of PLG with traditional sales in complex B2B purchasing processes.
