Most SaaS forecasts are wrong.Not because the logic is bad.Because no one challenges the story the numbers are telling. In 2025, the pace of GTM shifts, pricing compression, and AI-induced chaos means one thing for finance teams: If you don’t audit your forecast monthly, you’re not forecasting.You’re guessing. We’re going to walk you through how […]
Cash isn’t burned in the forecast.It’s burned in the gaps between finance and GTM. You can build a pristine model—perfect logic, clean assumptions, elegant charts—and still miss your number by $2M. Why? Because the real leak happens between the spreadsheet and the team executing it. In 2025, SaaS CFOs can’t just model reality.They have to […]
You’re a SaaS CFO. You’ve got 3–6 months of runway, an ambitious pipeline, and investors asking one question: Where does the money go? Most teams show up to fundraising with an operating plan.What investors want is a capital allocation machine. One that flexes. One that tells a story. One that earns confidence—before the pitch even […]
Most annual plans die quietly.They don’t break. They just become irrelevant. The numbers get approved, the slides get saved, and by Q2—leadership is solving a new set of problems with last year’s assumptions. That’s the real risk: not being wrong, but being late. We’re seeing a shift. A new generation of SaaS CFOs is phasing […]

In 2025, SaaS CFOs aren’t just forecasting the future—they’re defending against it. So we decided to run an exercise. What […]
If you’re a SaaS CFO in 2025, chances are someone has recently asked you:“What’s your G&A as a percent of ARR?” Not your burn rate. Not your CAC.G&A. Why? Because suddenly, back-office spend is getting the microscope treatment. And for good reason. While most CFOs have nailed the topline efficiency metrics, many are bleeding through […]
It’s one of the most painful conversations in SaaS finance right now—and one of the most avoidable. General & Administrative spend, or G&A, has become the quiet killer of runway. While sales and marketing take the heat (and the budget), bloated back-office spending often grows unchecked, especially as ARR crosses major inflection points. But we’ve […]
In a growth company, the early wins feel electric. Product-market fit clicks. Sales start compounding. The Slack channels are full of wins, momentum, and “next big thing” excitement. Everyone’s sprinting. Everyone’s hacking. Everyone’s flying blind. Until they’re not. That first real moment of chaos doesn’t show up as a fire—it shows up as a finance […]
