This week, Kevin Karner joined us on the Bowery Capital Startup Sales Podcast to discuss "SaaS Upsell & Add-On Sales Strategy." Kevin is currently the Head of Customer Growth at Drift, joining on as one of the first sales employees. Prior to Drift, he led up the Add-On Sales team at HubSpot, from the team's first incarnation as an experiment all the way through to its growth to a ~15-member team. Kevin shares with us his experience putting an upsell / add-on sales strategy to work, how it varies from the traditional sales or account management roles, and why a SaaS company should consider building such a team in-house.
