What is a good benchmark for year-over-year revenue growth?
Asked 4 years ago
I am wanting to use the YOY approach to analyze my monthly revenue growth, however, I am not actually sure what a good benchmark is for this growth. I know that profitability goals shouldn't be set comparatively to other companies, as all companies perform differently based on a variety of factors, but I am curious as to what works for others so that I can begin decerning what would work for me.

You are correct. You should not compare your growth benchmark with different companies. However, an average growth benchmark for a good company is between 15-45% to give you an idea.
According to the Pacific Crest SaaS survey, companies with more than $2 million annual revenue often lie on the higher end of the average spectrum. If your growth rate lies between the average or more than this average limit, your company has a reasonable growth rate.
