An actionable playbook for founders, growth marketers, SDR leaders, and revenue teams who want to turn demo interest into predictable revenue.
In B2B SaaS, booking a demo is often treated as a win.
But the real challenge begins after the demo.
Despite strong lead flow, up to 80% of demo leads never convert into paying customers—not because of product gaps or pricing, but due to broken post-lead processes.
Demo to Dollars was created to bridge that gap.
What This eBook Is About
Demo to Dollars focuses on the most ignored yet critical part of the B2B SaaS funnel:
everything that happens after a lead is captured.
This eBook helps you build a repeatable, scalable post-lead engine that aligns marketing, SDRs, sales, and revenue operations—so no opportunity is wasted.
Instead of chasing more leads, you’ll learn how to extract more revenue from the leads you already have.

Design lead nurturing journeys that feel personalized—not spammy
Build SDR workflows that convert conversations into opportunities
Align marketing and sales with strong sales enablement systems

Accelerate stalled pipelines using proven deal-closing tactics

This is not theory. The playbook is built on real SaaS case studies, proven frameworks, and industry benchmarks.

Why I Wrote This
Most SaaS companies don’t fail because of poor lead generation.
They fail because leads aren’t handled with strategy after they come in.
As someone who has worked closely with B2B SaaS teams across industries, I’ve repeatedly seen revenue leak in the same place—between demo booked and deal closed.
With rising CAC, longer buying cycles, and more informed buyers, we can’t afford to waste demos.
Demo to Dollars was written to help teams move beyond vanity metrics and start building real revenue outcomes from their pipeline.
Revenue doesn’t come from leads. It comes from leading your buyer—from interest to impact. That’s what this book is about. Not just getting demos. Not just nurturing leads. But orchestrating every part of the buyer’s journey after that first ‘I’m interested’ —with intelligence, intent, and integrity. Whether you’re a founder, a marketer, or a sales leader—remember: It’s not the demo that closes deals. It’s what happens after.
