增长飞轮（4 象限）

Growth Flywheel (4 Quadrants)

        PLG（产品驱动）
            ↑
            |
   已有流量 + 短决策  ←→  需要信任 + 长周期
            |
            ↓
        SLG（销售驱动）

选型判据：

ACV < $1k/年 & 决策周期 < 1 周 → PLG（Vercel、Supabase 模式）
ACV > $10k/年 & 决策周期 > 1 个月 → SLG（Snowflake、Databricks 模式）
中间 → PLG-to-SLG hybrid（HeyGen、Deel 模式）

        PLG（Product-Led Growth）
            ↑
            |
   Existing Traffic + Short Decision Cycle  ←→  Trust Required + Long Cycle
            |
            ↓
        SLG（Sales-Led Growth）

Selection Criteria:

ACV < $1k/year & decision cycle < 1 week → PLG (Vercel, Supabase model)
ACV > $10k/year & decision cycle > 1 month → SLG (Snowflake, Databricks model)
Middle range → PLG-to-SLG hybrid (HeyGen, Deel model)

5 阶段路径

5-Stage Path

阶段	ARR	关键动作
Pre-PMF	$0-$100k	10-30 次用户访谈（联动 `gr-user-interview` ），确认 must-have
Early PMF	$100k-$1M	投 1-2 个渠道做深（不要广撒网）
Growth	$1M-$5M	引入 affiliate + 集成伙伴，PLG 加 sales-assist
Scale	$5M-$10M	Enterprise 团队、合规认证（SOC2）、channel 加码
Ecosystem	$10M+	开放平台、investor / agency 分销

Stage	ARR	Key Actions
Pre-PMF	$0-$100k	10-30 user interviews (link with `gr-user-interview` ) to confirm must-have features
Early PMF	$100k-$1M	Focus deeply on 1-2 channels (don't spread too thin)
Growth	$1M-$5M	Introduce affiliate + integration partners, add sales-assist to PLG
Scale	$5M-$10M	Build Enterprise team, obtain compliance certifications (SOC2), increase channel investment
Ecosystem	$10M+	Launch open platform, enable investor / agency distribution

2B 打单与交付（私有化 & 定制实操）

B2B Deal Closing & Delivery (Private Deployment & Customization Practices)

来自某 Multi-Agent 开源商业化项目复盘。签合同只是一半，全额收回款才是另一半。

Lessons learned from a Multi-Agent open-source commercialization project. Signing the contract is only half the battle; collecting full payment is the other half.

付款与尾款防御

Payment and Final Payment Protection

规则	细节
分段付款	私有化 3:4:3 或 4:4:2（首批功能上线 / 全部部署完 / 运维 3–6 个月后尾款）
签约即收款	签合同当天收 30%
违约金	写进合同：拖一天多付 0.5%
尾款筹码	留 1–2 个功能部署在自己服务器，尾款结清才迁（签前说清、条款写清）
找谁要	尾款找对接的最高的人；推诿可问 1–2 次 CEO
长期方向	预付款越来越高、尾款越来越少

Rule	Details
Phased Payment	For private deployment: 3:4:3 or 4:4:2 (first batch of features launched / fully deployed / final payment after 3–6 months of operation and maintenance)
Payment Upon Signing	Collect 30% on the day the contract is signed
Late Payment Penalty	Include in contract: 0.5% additional payment per day of delay
Leverage for Final Payment	Keep 1–2 features deployed on your own server; only migrate them after final payment is settled (clarify before signing and include in terms)
Who to Approach	Ask the highest-ranking contact for final payment; if pushed around, you can ask the CEO 1–2 times
Long-Term Direction	Increase advance payments and reduce final payments over time

需求边界：SOR / SOW / CCB

Requirement Boundaries: SOR / SOW / CCB

SOR（客户原始输入）与 SOW（验收标准+交付节点+变更条款）分开，合同和 SOW 一起签
变更走 CCB：客户书面发起 → 双方 PM 评估金额/工期 → 签变更确认
一切留痕；合同指明"项目验收对接人"
客户口头承诺再多，只有 paperwork 有效

Separate SOR (Customer Original Request) and SOW (Acceptance Criteria + Delivery Milestones + Change Terms), sign the contract and SOW together
Changes go through CCB: customer initiates in writing → both PMs evaluate cost/schedule → sign change confirmation
Keep records of everything; specify the "project acceptance contact person" in the contract
No matter how many verbal promises the customer makes, only paperwork is valid

商务推拉与定价

Business Negotiation & Pricing

客户提 50 个需求、能做 40 →"先答应 10 个、因为想帮你做到 15 个"，把让步做成人情
不想做的需求抬价过滤（人/天多标几天），不直接拒
私有化只有两个真需求：数据隐私 + 接内部权限系统，其他都该买 SaaS
SaaS 二开直接卖 License；SSO 等集成开放 API + 标准手册让客户自己做

If the customer proposes 50 requirements and you can fulfill 40 → "Agree to 10 first, because we want to help you achieve 15", frame concessions as favors
Filter unwanted requirements by raising prices (quote more person-days), don't reject directly
Private deployment only has two real needs: data privacy + integration with internal permission systems; everything else should be purchased as SaaS
Sell License directly for SaaS customization; open APIs + standard manuals for integrations like SSO so customers can do it themselves

营收与渠道账

Revenue & Channel Accounting

$100 万 ARR 拆解：9 个 $10 万 2B 客户或每 $10 万 ≈ 500 个 $200/年订阅用户（$1M ≈ 5,000）
代理分层：reseller 10–20% 推荐费；年销 $10 万银牌 15%、$30 万金牌 20%
代理尽调三问：代理过什么产品？客户从哪来？Reseller 还是 Service Partner？
2B 内容公式：80% 讲自己如何帮客户成功 + 20% 讲客户；deck 先讲怎么痛、再说怎么好

$1M ARR breakdown: 9 $100k B2B customers or approximately 500 $200/year subscription users per $100k ($1M ≈ 5,000 users)
Agent tiering: 10–20% referral fee for resellers; 15% for silver tier (annual sales $100k), 20% for gold tier (annual sales $300k)
Three due diligence questions for agents: Which products have you represented? Where do your customers come from? Are you a Reseller or Service Partner?
B2B content formula: 80% talk about how you help customers succeed + 20% talk about customers; start the deck with pain points, then solutions

B2B 内容特殊要求

Special Requirements for B2B Content

必须有 case study（ROI / 节约时间 / 节约人力）
必须有可验证数据（"our customer X saved Y hours/month"）
必须有 CFO 友好的 pricing 页（ROI 计算器、年付折扣、合规文档）
❌ 不要用 ToC 营销话术（"amazing"、"magical"）

Must include case studies (ROI / time saved / labor saved)
Must include verifiable data ("our customer X saved Y hours/month")
Must have a CFO-friendly pricing page (ROI calculator, annual payment discount, compliance documents)
❌ Don't use ToC marketing jargon ("amazing", "magical")

反模式

Anti-Patterns

❌ 没 PMF 就投流（烧钱速度比学习速度快 10x）
❌ PLG 做到 $1M 就盲目转 SLG（很多死在这里 —— Vercel 是反例，坚持 PLG 到 $100M）
❌ 只看 ARR 不看 NRR（NRR < 100% = 漏水桶）
❌ Enterprise 只给一个合同模板（要分 startup / mid-market / enterprise 三版）

❌ Running ads before achieving PMF (burn rate is 10x faster than learning rate)
❌ Blindly switching from PLG to SLG after reaching $1M ARR (many fail here — Vercel is the counterexample, sticking to PLG until $100M)
❌ Only focusing on ARR and ignoring NRR (NRR < 100% = leaky bucket)
❌ Using only one contract template for Enterprise (need three versions: startup / mid-market / enterprise)
