Industry Solutions
The HR tech market has hundreds of vendors competing for the same budget lines. Win rates have dropped, and buyers switch vendors frequently. Every HR leader you reach out to already has multiple vendors in their inbox pitching similar solutions. Salesmotion gives your team real-time intelligence on HR priorities, org changes, and workforce initiatives so every conversation starts with relevance. Guild Education saves 6+ hours per seller per week.
Selling HR technology requires understanding a buyer who is managing one of the most turbulent periods in the history of work. CHROs, VPs of People, and Heads of Talent Acquisition are simultaneously navigating remote work policies, skills shortages, AI-driven workforce transformation, and employee experience expectations that shift quarter to quarter. If your reps cannot connect their solution to these specific challenges, they lose to competitors who can.
HR tech buying decisions are driven by workforce signals that generic sales tools do not track: mass layoff announcements, return-to-office policy shifts, DEI program expansions, benefits overhauls, and HRIS platform migrations. These events create acute buying windows, but most reps learn about them too late, or not at all, because they are buried in press releases, earnings calls, and industry publications.
The HR tech market is also extraordinarily crowded. There are thousands of point solutions competing for the same HR budget. The only sustainable differentiation is relevance: showing a CHRO that you understand their organization's specific workforce challenges, not just their industry category. This requires account-level intelligence that goes far beyond job titles and company size.

Guild Education sells workforce development solutions to large enterprises with deal sizes exceeding $20M and sales cycles spanning up to 24 months. Their strategic account executives needed to continuously surface insights that connected Guild's offerings to evolving customer priorities, but manual research across earnings calls, press releases, and industry reports consumed hours per account each week.
Salesmotion automated the research burden, saving 30 minutes per account and over 6 hours per week per AE. The platform surfaces earnings call alerts, weekly account digests, and executive commentary, enabling reps to maintain meaningful engagement throughout multi-year sales cycles by always having a relevant, timely reason to reach out.
“It's not even just about saving time — it's about uncovering things we otherwise might not research. Salesmotion helps us connect Guild to what's already publicly important to the company.”
