Digital PR · SaaS & B2B software

Digital PR for SaaS and B2B software companies. Make the benchmark reproducible before pitching it.

This scope prepares a software research story from evidence the client is entitled to use. It defines the population, method and limitations before selecting a headline. A source pack lets journalists inspect the basis of the finding, while product or customer-performance statements remain subject to the relevant approval and confidentiality boundary.

01 / What’s different

What changes for SaaS and B2B software companies

The same method as every digital PR project. These are the parts we plan differently here.

  1. Cohort definitionThe sample must describe the population the claim actually concerns.
  2. Comparable methodA benchmark needs conditions that can be understood and checked.
  3. Customer rightsProduct access does not establish permission to publish customer information.
02 / Where we work

Evidence that can support a software story

Choose a research question and inspect available data before proposing a result.

Possible source material

  • Permissioned aggregate product observations
  • A documented controlled workflow comparison
  • Attributable industry data with a defined analysis
  • An approved operational finding with clear limitations
No client dataset or completed benchmark is assumed.

Source-pack requirements

  • Population and period
  • Method and exclusions
  • Interpretation limits
  • Approved release and attribution

SaaS benchmark source-pack brief

The benchmark brief keeps a useful result distinguishable from a selected product demonstration. This record is illustrative and contains no client results.

Decision criteria and limits: SaaS benchmark source-pack brief
Situation to checkProposed scopeBoundary
A customer cohort is analysedDefine inclusion, exclusions and the period behind the observation.A selected customer group is not the entire market.
Two workflows are comparedRetain the setup, versions and conditions needed to interpret the difference.A mismatched test cannot substantiate a like-for-like superiority claim.
A result uses customer informationGet the required rights and privacy approval before release.Access to product analytics is not publication permission.
A headline simplifies the resultCheck that the scope and uncertainty remain defensible.A descriptive association must not become a causal business promise.

What the first handover should make clear

  • Keep cohort and method notes beside proposed headlines.
  • Record confidentiality and release decisions.
  • Separate source-pack production from outreach and publication outcomes.

01Can we call public-data analysis original research?

Describe the actual analytical work and source transparently. Do not imply that the underlying dataset was collected by the client.

02What if the result is not newsworthy?

Record that finding and decide whether to refine or stop the story rather than inventing a stronger number.

03Can a product demo substitute for a benchmark?

It can illustrate a workflow, but its conditions and evidential limits must be explicit.

04What is included in the fee?

[CONFIRM: data work, source pack, review rounds, outreach and third-party costs.]
