SaaS startups and scaleups can rarely stay still. The same goes for brand messaging and content. You need to adapt as your audience changes, your platform grows and the market shifts. This will ensure your words, like your platform, achieve product/market fit.
Whether you’re chasing MRR, customer growth, or penetration into a new market, the right words can give you an edge at every stage of the customer lifecycle.

Learn moreDo investors care about brand? It’s about far more than visuals and marketing – once you reduce it down to the essentials, it reveals the essence, heart and potential of a company. So yes: investors do care about brand. But how much are they influenced by it? And how can you curate your brand to reassure and resonate with them?
Read the blogAs a technology brand, you’re always breaking new ground. That’s a tough enough task in itself. Before long though, another brand is breaking the ground you’re currently standing on. It’s a precarious situation. You’re either disrupting, failing to disrupt or in danger of disruption. And for brand marketers, this presents a series of hurdles to overcome.
Read the blogBrands need to evolve. The catch here is that consistency is a cornerstone of brand narrative. Change too much, too often, and you risk a disconnect with customers, employees and investors. Evolve too little, and you risk the same. So where do you draw the line? How much should a brand evolve on the startup and scaleup journey?
Read the blogWe’re primarily B2B and tech copywriting specialists, and this often means writing for SaaS companies.
The main challenge specific to SaaS copywriting is that advertising desirable functionality can only get you so far. And while a SaaS team’s expertise typically lies in development and product, this is rarely where an audience’s interest lies.
To stand out from competitors and win trust from customers, SaaS companies also need to demonstrate expert understanding of their target audience’s field and specific challenges, whether they’re sector-based (telco, conservation, recruitment, etc.) or function-based (HR and people, finance, marketing, etc.).
Brand messaging and expertise-based content, such as original research and interview-based whitepapers, blogs, and videos, are crucial to bridging this gap.
We’ve done SaaS copywriting for pre-MVP platforms seeking investment, seed-funded companies approaching launch day, and Series-A funded companies looking to reach new audiences.
The target audience of the companies we’ve worked with has been varied. Some have had enterprise customers like Vodafone and Sony, others won the business of nonprofits like Oxfam or city governments like Paris. Still others have sold to a diverse small business market.
We do support our clients to articulate who they are (values, mission, purpose), what they do compared to competitors (value proposition), and what their audience needs to know (messaging).
For instance, we have been involved in defining core product messaging for long-established companies such as Moneyhub, as well as brand messaging for early-stage startups like The Land App and Housecure.
We can also refer you to brand and design companies we’ve previously partnered with, and they can help define the visual elements of your brand.
