Primis, a leading tech recruitment agency, faced challenges in maximizing consultant efficiency and optimizing their business development strategy. With a focus on building strong relationships through various outreach methods, Primis had tried using a tool to automate their outreach but struggled with low user adoption.

Primis needed a tool that was simple, user-friendly, and could automate low value-add tasks, allowing consultants to focus on building relationships rather than administrative work.

The Search for a Solution

As a tech-focused recruitment agency, Primis placed a high importance on leveraging technology to stay competitive. They sought a solution that could automate follow-ups, track interactions, and free up their team to focus on what truly matters: creating meaningful connections. They needed a  tool that would reduce time spent on manual tasks and enhance consultants’ ability to reach out to the right people at the right time.
