# SaaS Growth Playbook — MRR from $0 to $50K

> 🌍 **Language / 语言**: [中文](#中文版) | [English](references/en/README.md) | [日本語](references/ja/README.md) | [한국어](references/ko/README.md)

Revenue is the only metric that matters. This playbook is organized by MRR milestones.

- **$0–$1K MRR**: Finding first paying customers and validating willingness to pay
- **$1K–$10K MRR**: Pricing optimization and reducing early churn
- **$10K–$50K MRR**: Activation funnels, expansion revenue, and hiring your first marketer
- **Retention levers**: Cohort analysis, NPS-driven improvements, and re-engagement flows
- **Benchmarks**: Stage-appropriate metrics so you know if you're on track

## Two Roads to $1M ARR (2026 addendum)

Every path to the first $1M reduces to one of two equations — mixing them too early stalls both:

- **Enterprise leg:** nine ~$100K accounts per year (a typical composition: $30–50K standard service + $30K implementation + $20K training)
- **Self-serve leg:** five hundred $200/yr subscriptions

Prove each as its own small closed loop before combining them into one forecast.

### Getting paid — the part growth content skips

If enterprise deals enter your MRR mix, recognized revenue ≠ collected cash:

- Break payment into three tranches (3:4:3 or 4:4:2 across go-live milestones), collect 30% on signature day, and put a written daily late fee (0.5%/day) in the contract.
- Hold a technical bargaining chip: one or two features hosted on your own servers until the final payment clears — agreed openly before signing.
- Escalate unpaid balances to the most senior person you've met at the account, not your usual contact.
- Deal-over-deal trend to enforce: prepayment share up, tail-payment share down.

### Expansion through partners, priced correctly

| Partner tier | Cut |
|---|---|
| Referral-only reseller | 10–20% |
| Silver (>$100K/yr in sales) | 15% |
| Gold (>$300K/yr in sales) | 20% |

Supply partners at ~80% of list; cap their resale at 1.2x list. Before signing anyone, ask three things: what products they carried before, where their customers originate, and whether they resell or deliver services.

### Custom-work churn insurance

Bespoke requests are churn risk wearing a purchase order. Two filters: only data privacy and internal-permissions integration justify private deployment — everything else stays on cloud (customization → license; SSO-type integrations → open API + docs, customer self-serves). For asks you must decline, quote high instead of saying no; the price declines for you.
