Probably the most overused, yet most misunderstood word in SaaS?
Go-to-market is often used to refer to everything that happens in a business outside of engineering and core functions like finance and HR.
Often this isn’t defined as a single strategy, but as an amalgamation of everything you’re already doing. Even to those in the know, GTM can feel really intangible - and extremely difficult to communicate internally.
And if it’s difficult to communicate amongst different teams, are you sure you’re all rowing in the same direction?
Ultimately, it needs to be a summary of:

…the product you have (and are) building…
…to the market (who, and in which landscape)
Your go-to-market plan needs to convey target customer, your product and positioning, pricing, and distribution channels.
