In a bold move to reshape the B2B sales CRM software landscape, Korean startup Relate, has unveiled a cutting-edge CRM tool meticulously designed for B2B startups. Prioritizing product-led growth (PLG), Relate addresses the distinctive challenges faced by B2B startups in streamlining their sales processes.
In response to the limitations of existing CRM software, especially the complexity of platforms like Salesforce, Relate’s founders identified the necessity for tailored features catering to B2B startups pursuing a product-led growth strategy. Originating as a platform connecting Korean designers with the US market in 2019, Relate underwent strategic pivots to evolve into a sales CRM software. Recognizing the surging demand for CRM tools among Korean B2B companies, the founders focused on creating a solution for process-driven sales rather than relying solely on relationships.
Co-founder Sangyong Jung (SJ) expressed pride in shaping the Korean sales CRM market, stating, “Our commitment to innovation and customer-centricity remains unwavering.” Reflecting on their journey, the founders credited Y Combinator (YC), a renowned startup accelerator, for providing invaluable guidance and insights during the application and interview process.
Setting itself apart from competitors like HubSpot, Relate caters specifically to B2B SaaS companies, incorporating unique features such as integrated product usage analytics and shared side channels for sales communications.
Targeting B2B startups in the United States with small teams (around 5 to 10 members) building their initial sales teams, Relate aims to deliver an integrated solution tailored to their specific needs. The diverse founding team, including individuals with startup experience, tech services background, and expertise from industry giants like IBM and Walmart, positions Relate as a promising player in the B2B sales CRM software realm.
As Relate launches its groundbreaking sales CRM software, B2B startups can anticipate a comprehensive solution that propels their sales processes, fostering growth in a dynamic market.
