On Breakthrough SaaS Growth with The Jasons, we unpack how a broken recruiting journey can undermine trust—and growth—before Day 1. Annette Franz connects culture, EX, and CX, showing how misaligned expectations and hiring “promises” ripple into churn, brand damage, and stalled expansion. You’ll hear practical ways CS leaders can partner with Talent to design candidate experiences that reinforce your brand promise, close the promise–delivery gap, and set the stage for loyal customers and durable revenue.

Breakthrough SaaS Growth with The Jasons
SaaS growth isn’t owned by a single team—it’s a cross-functional sport. Each week, hosts Jason Noble (London) and Jason Whitehead (U.S.) dig into what actually drives sustainable growth across product, pricing, onboarding & adoption, customer success, sales, marketing, finance, and leadership. Expect candid conversations, practical playbooks, and board-level perspectives on topics like AI (beyond the hype), data quality & trust, in-product guidance, value realization, renewals, expansion, and customer experience. You’ll hear from founders, investors, product and revenue leaders who’ve built real results—not just slideware.
Formerly known as The Jasons Take On, the show has evolved to reflect a broader mission: turning insight into action that breaks through silos and accelerates SaaS growth. Same Jasons. Bigger vision. Sharper takeaways.
