What do they do?
Why did they contract with us?

TrueSpot had already created a game changer product for the car dealerships leveraging their patented campus network and location technology. Initial customer engagements were starting to be signed and they needed support in scaling up sales. 

 

Although nailing product-market fit is a key requirement for success in startups, it is not the only obstacle to overcome. Being able to scale up sales when selling sophisticated and innovative technology products requires careful go-to-market execution. TrueSpot and KAHI worked together ironing-out the sales narrative, sharpening the value proposition, optimizing the go-to-market as well as the business model.

 

At KAHI, with our usual hands-on approach, we got deeply involved even shouldering day-to-day operation roles and responsibility for sales and business development. Thanks to all the collective effort not only has TrueSpot been able to prime itself into a scalable sales machine but they have been able to increase credibility to a point where they are being able to sign strategic partnerships with top automotive players such as KeyPer (Owned by Assa Abloy) and Supra KeyAdvantage (Owned by Carrier).

“Having worked in location tech for many years it is exciting to see a company like TrueSpot really nail the right solution to make it work from a business perspective. While Apple AirTag is now becoming very popular with consumers, TrueSpot has been pioneering over the last 4 years the underlying technologies into purpose-built enterprise IoT products for dealerships. We are proud of our contribution in helping TrueSpot sharpen their offering and solidify their market position”says Adam Philips, Founder of KAHI and interim CRO at Truespot.

They are great catalyzing sales scrappy, versatile and take extreme ownership to make things happen!” says Mike Hanna, CEO and Founder TrueSpot.
