Description:

Sujan Patel shares excellent marketing and growth tips for SaaS business owners based on his ten years of Internet marketing experience.

 

Introduction

Sujan Patel started his first business selling cars parts while in high school. While the business was not a great success due to a lack of business acumen, he learned SEO in the process. His SEO skills would serve him well in years to come.

 

Sujan dropped out of college to found Single Grain, a digital marketing agency. Single grain eventually became one of San Francisco's leading agencies boasting such high-profile clients as Intuit, SalesForce, Random House, Sony Pictures, and Yahoo. In 2014, Sujan sold his holdings in Single Grain and took a job as VP of marketing at the SaaS company When I Work—as a vacation (he does not like to be bored).

 

Together with Colin Matthews, Sujan has founded ContentMarketer.io, a SaaS product to help marketers automate content promotion efforts.

 

During the Christmas holidays of 2015, he and Rob Wormley "accidentally" wrote the ebook 100 Days of Growth while brainstorming growth strategies. (He would later write: "It's been one of the most productive Christmas's ever!")

 

Sujan is also a regular contributor to The Wall Street Journal, Forbes, Entrepreneur, Business Insider, and INC. Magazine. He has written on such varied topics as accelerators, mentorships, productivity hacks, online resources, success habits marketing skills, team building, content marketing, and growth strategies.
