  • Summary

  • This podcast interview focuses on transforming how B2B companies leverage customer interactions for growth. My guest is Krishna Raj Raja, CEO of SupportLogic. From his early days as one of VMware's first support engineers, Krishna discovered something the industry had missed - the most valuable customer insights were being lost in departmental silos. Yet instead of accepting conventional solutions, he chose to build something the market initially rejected but customers immediately embraced. This inspired me, and hence I invited Krishna to my podcast. We explore the counterintuitive approach of building a B2B software company by deliberately ignoring what investors and the market considered essential. His journey reveals how challenging established industry assumptions can uncover massive business opportunities that others miss, while creating natural barriers to competition through a unique product philosophy. Here is a quote that captures one of Krishna's most striking business lessons: "If customers are excited and investors are not seeing it, this is the right opportunity to go after, because this is an opportunity they're not going to fund." By listening to this podcast you will learn: How to identify massive market opportunities in the disconnect between investor skepticism and customer excitement Why focusing on six wildly successful customers yields better results than chasing rapid-scale When deliberately ignoring industry "must-haves" creates stronger market positioning How to turn early customer enthusiasm into effortless enterprise sales For more information about the guest from this week: Krishna Raj Raja Website: supportlogic.com Book: supportexperience.ai Learn more about your ad choices.
