Ask HN: Any books on marketing and sales for SaaS software?

9 points by mortal ↗ HN
I am building a SaaS product, and have little prior experience in marketing and sales.

I have read patio11's essays on the topics and have learned a lot. Thanks Patrick !

What are other resources (books preferably, videos would also do) on marketing and sales, relevant to selling software online ?

Jason Lemkin's SaaStr.com is a great starting point, although it focuses mostly on B2B SaaS. I would also check out his posts on Quora.

Aaron Ross's "Predictable Revenue" is a great start and focuses a lot on outbound sales; he is working on a part 2 with Jason Lemkin.

Mark Roberge's "The Sales Acceleration Formula" is also great and talks more about the marketing side.
