I`ve spent the last two years building a suite of HR software
products designed to source, screen, evaluate, profile, rank,
and retain great employees. We`ve grown to 8 people and
sales are beginning to gain traction. Organizational
Development people who see my software say it`s state-of-the-
art.

While I`d like to have my software category validated by a large
company launching a similar product line, I`m worried that
unless I can build a national presence my little company could
get lost in the shuffle.

I have chosen to bootstrap the business, hence we have no
outside investors. I own the whole thing. However, the flip side
is we are constantly strapped for cash to grow the company. It
seems to me that what I need is a network of established HR
consultants selling my software to their clients on a revenue-
share basis.

Does anyone out there know any HR consultants who might be
interested in generating incremental income from their
established client list?

Marcus,

This guy - Hunter Lott - recently spoke to a peer group I belong to. Very knowledgeable about HR issues. He`s been in HR many, many years. You might consider contacting him and his associates and see what they think about your product. Tell him a member of Vistage 9033 recommended you contact him.

Marcus,

Great concept!  What size are your typical clients?

Janet,

Most of our clients have between 150 and 1,000 employees; however, recently we`ve made some headway with some larger prospects. A Midwest trucking company with 1,900 drivers and a light manufacturer in Tennessee with 4,000 workers.

I`m trying to finish a Certified TamingTurnover Partner program that makes it possible for HR professionals who want to be self-employed to sell and support our software in their local market.

Marc

Marcus,

My services are currently geared toward smaller businesses, but I would be interested in finding out about the Certified TamingTurnover Partner program.

Marcus,

I don`t know if you have come across another SUN member, executeksearch.  His name is Ken.  He is in the executive search and hiring business and he might have an interest in what you do.  There might be synergy there or you may be the fiercest of competitors. Look him up and send him an email.  Tell him I referred you.
