Episode 299: A Clear Sales Plan for HR Tech and HR Consultancies

Whether you run an HR software company or an HR consultancy, one thing is always true: big annual revenue targets only work when you turn them into simple weekly actions that actually bring in demos, sales calls, consulting calls, and new clients.

In Episode 299 of the A Better HR Business podcast, Ben outlines a clearer, calmer way to think about sales planning for the year ahead. The ideas apply equally to software founders and consulting firms.

Here is a taste of what is covered...

Start with one number There is one surprisingly simple number that reveals exactly how many demos or consulting calls you need each week. Most HR businesses never calculate it. Once you do, planning becomes far easier.

Work backwards from the goal Instead of trying to be everywhere, there is a cleaner way to map your activity. Ben explains how to reverse-engineer your pipeline so your marketing and sales efforts work together rather than in bursts.

Get really good at two or three growth activities More channels do not always mean more clients. Ben shares why most HR tech firms and HR consultancies see better results when they master a couple of activities deeply while using the others to support the core engine.

Add small moments of wow to your client experience A few thoughtful improvements in onboarding or delivery can increase conversions, retention, and referrals. Ben recommends a book that will reshape how you think about client experience.

Lead nurturing is the silent deal-maker You may have heard the old idea of seven touchpoints. Ben explains why that is outdated and why B2B HR often requires many more interactions before someone is ready to talk. He also covers why so many deals are lost long before the sales call or demo.

How HR Growth Engine fits into the picture If you struggle to follow up consistently, keep leads warm, or manage all your touchpoints across different platforms, Ben gives a short overview of how HR Growth Engine helps HR firms stay in front of their audience with less manual effort.

Stories from inside the HR industry Some firms grew with low-cost ads. Others filled webinars with ideal prospects. Others grew simply by improving their follow-up. Ben shares the common thread behind all these wins.
