Why does SaaS content fall behind?

As a SaaS company, one of the key ways you communicate with your customers is through the content on your website and in your product. This content could include product documentation, FAQs, marketing copy, and more. Keeping this content up-to-date and accurate is essential for providing a good customer experience and maintaining trust in your brand.



However, this can be a challenge for SaaS companies, especially as they scale and their products and teams grow. Here are a few reasons why:

  1. Rapid product development: SaaS companies are constantly updating and improving their products, which means the content that describes those products may also need to be updated. This can be time-consuming and may require coordination across different teams (e.g., product, engineering, and marketing).

  2. Multiple customer touchpoints: SaaS companies often have multiple customer touchpoints, such as a website, product, and customer support channels. Keeping all of this content up to date can be a logistical challenge, as changes need to be made consistently across all channels.

  3. Limited resources: SaaS companies are often lean startups that have limited resources. This can make it difficult to allocate time and budget towards maintaining and updating customer-facing content.

So, how can SaaS companies overcome these challenges and keep their customer-facing content up to date? Here are a few strategies:

  1. Create a content calendar: By scheduling regular content updates and reviews, you can ensure that your content stays current and accurate. This can also help you prioritize updates and allocate resources effectively.

  2. Set up a content governance process: Establishing clear guidelines and processes for creating, reviewing, and approving content can help ensure that changes are made consistently and efficiently.

  3. Utilize automation: There are tools and processes that can help automate parts of the content update process, such as pulling in product data or generating marketing copy based on templates. This can save time and reduce the risk of errors.

  4. Invest in content management: Having a dedicated content manager or team can help ensure that content is kept up-to-date to date and coordinated across different touchpoints.

By implementing these strategies, SaaS companies can overcome the challenges of keeping their customer-facing content up-to-date and provide a seamless and consistent experience for their customers.
