Technology & SaaS

Buyer intelligence for technology and SaaS.

Software is easiest to sell to a business that has already outgrown the way it works. Groundwork finds the companies where that is visible from the outside.

Who it's for

Who Groundwork works with in technology & saas.

Groundwork works with software, platform, automation and business-systems companies selling into established businesses, including technology companies selling to other platforms.

Groundwork defines what a good prospect looks like for your offer, evaluates the market against that definition, engages the relevant decision-maker and hands you a qualified opportunity. You take the meeting. What buyer intelligence means.

Prospects

The companies Groundwork can identify.

  • Multi-branch businesses coordinating operations and billing across sites
  • Companies whose revenue depends on accurate operational records
  • Growing businesses running on fragmented or manual systems
  • Platforms expanding into new merchant, customer or geographic segments
  • Organisations investing in new operating or customer systems

Intelligence

The commercial and operational data that matters.

Sector and company size describe a market. These are the details that separate one company in it from the next.

Operational complexity

Branch count, transaction volume and handoffs between teams show where systems are under strain.

Revenue dependencies

Billing tied to deliveries, hours or equipment movements makes process accuracy a revenue question.

Growth activity

New branches, segments or markets change what a business needs its systems to do.

Hiring patterns

Roles in integrations, finance systems or operations indicate projects being staffed.

Product signals

For platforms: capability gaps, API maturity and recent releases show where integration demand sits.

Relevance

What makes one prospect more relevant than another.

  • Its operating model creates the exact problem your product solves.
  • Growth is adding volume faster than its current systems can absorb.
  • The cost of the problem shows up in revenue or cashflow, not only in effort.
  • A commercial or technology executive with budget can be identified.
