Analyze our Q1 2026 sales data and tell me what's working and what's not.
## Q1 2026 Sales Analysis ### Executive Summary 1. **Revenue up 23% YoY** ($1.2M vs $975K) — driven primarily by enterprise segment growth 2. **Conversion rate dropped 15%** in the mid-market segment — pricing page bounce rate increased significantly in March 3. **Top-performing channel shifted**: Organic search overtook paid ads as the #1 acquisition channel for the first time 4. **Customer churn increased 8%** among customers acquired through discount promotions 5. **Average deal size up 31%** — enterprise deals averaging $45K vs $34K last year ### Key Findings **What's Working:** - Enterprise sales motion: +45% pipeline, +31% deal size - Content marketing: organic traffic up 67%, conversion up 12% - Product-led growth: free tier to paid conversion improved from 3.2% to 4.1% **What's Not Working:** - Mid-market segment: conversion down 15%, likely due to pricing perception - Discount-acquired customers: 2.3x higher churn vs full-price customers - Paid advertising: CAC increased 28% while conversion decreased ### Recommendations 1. **Double down on enterprise**: Hire 2 more enterprise AEs — the ROI is clear 2. **Fix the pricing page**: A/B test a simpler pricing structure for mid-market 3. **Reduce discounting**: The data shows discounted customers aren't profitable long-term 4. **Shift ad budget to content**: Organic is outperforming paid — reallocate 30% of ad spend to content production
