A Partnership for Growth

smarthr.ai & Simplifymeetings

Background

smarthr.ai is an innovative tool that assists recruiters and HR departments in developing tailored content for the hiring process. From job advertisements to individual inquiries on LinkedIn and Xing, smarthr.ai had a powerful product but faced the challenge of expanding its reach beyond its own network.

Challenge

The executives of smarthr.ai had a strong product and a clear vision for their company, but they also recognized that they needed help to grow on a larger scale and achieve their ambitious goals. They were aware that having an excellent product was not enough; they also had to ensure that this product was effectively marketed. This meant they needed to find a way to increase the number of qualified leads and simultaneously ensure that these leads were efficiently converted into sales appointments. Therefore, they decided to bring a specialized sales partner on board. They needed someone with expertise and experience in lead generation and organizing sales appointments - tasks that can be time-consuming and require specific skills. Their hope was that by collaborating with such a partner, they could devote more time and resources to what they do best: further developing their core business and improving their product.

Definition of the Ideal Customer Profile

Development of Outreach Campaigns
