How demand generation relates to MRR
New-customer MRR is one part of SaaS recurring-revenue growth. Expansion and reactivation can add revenue; contraction and churn can reduce it.
Acquisition therefore connects with sales conversion, activation and retention. Agreed nurture or re-engagement work can support that connection. Product, sales and customer-success responsibilities stay clear, and revenue attribution reflects what the evidence supports. Marketing alone cannot guarantee net MRR growth.
