Why Sales and Marketing Misalignment Kills SaaS Growth

How mismatched definitions of pipeline, ICP, activation, and handover create hidden drag across SaaS growth teams.

Alignment is an operating system

The work starts with shared commercial assumptions: target segments, buying triggers, pipeline stages, conversion expectations, and retention signals.
