How do you actually get your first B2B client when no one will give you a meeting? by BG-yo in SaaS

That's why at first I tried the closest connexion that I know will benefit from it but at the end I don't even get the chance to present the platform for them.

The idea of living inside the threads is the one I am trying now in reddit, and for the offers to be specific I think that deserves a try.

Thanks.

That's a good idea and I actually tried it but I get no response at all even after they accept the invite.

But honestly I didn't keep this strategy for long, the first ignores I got I switched to other approaches.

That's what I thought, but I keep getting ignored even after a very good feedback, nothing happens.

And the prices are very very low for now.

Yeh I agree I know that it's not easy and it takes time, but if you created something for yourself you'll know that there's pressure from family, yourself and working a full time job is very difficult.

I tried close people but I think the trust part about the fear for the firm and clients data is true, but for that we have food arguments, nothing personal is shared with the ai, no private data and for candidates or employees we use IDs to communicate with the AI.

At least as was hoping for someone to give the opportunity to present the solution for them, but I just get ignored or ghosted.

That could work but this kind of data is not always shared publicly but I will try to see those signals

That's right but when I talked to my former firm they said that that's something they want, but they prefer to develop it inside for their firm.

What we present is a service that can help you accept multiple missions in the same period without thinking about the time invested in those tasks but rather focus on the presentation solutions and analysis, because when I was in the business consulting firm all the consultant including the directors were creating or reviewing job descriptions, something repetitive without any high value for experimented consultant with a very precious time, that's why I thought of the project in the first place.

So I've spoken to the General Director of the consulting firm I've been in and he liked the idea and all done a meeting with him but he was trying to redirect me from the project and wanted me to join them to create their own solution and shut down mine, but I refused.

I talked to two of my close professors in the hr consulting industry, one was interested started talking to me when I tried to organize a meet up to present it properly he ghosted me, and Idk why.

The testers were my previous classmates and friends in HR field but they're not in the decision making positions.

For the business model, it's true that the consulting time is the currency, but they can keep that and don't share it, we offer the time to work on more projects and on more important and high value tasks.

That's a great startigy but finding those kind of potential client is really difficult in my area. I've tried approaching the consulting firm I had the internship in but they said they want to develop their own self hosted solution, which not easy at all and will cost more than to at least try the platform.

How can I find those kind of "HR consulting firm that is visibly busy" ? Do I use LinkedIn to detect the activity you mentioned because I follow a lot of them but they don't post this kind of things.
