A worked example.
We want to generate qualified discovery calls for our HR software for 50–200 person companies. Our offer is a free payroll-compliance assessment, not a generic demo. We can invest ₹1.5 lakh over six weeks and have HubSpot forms, conversion tracking and three customer case studies. We need a recommendation on channel mix, the first test plan and briefs for the ad-creative team.
