What is the Boardroom Insight Technology Leaderboard?

An industry ranking and award program that honors B2B SaaS companies for outstanding consulting services such as platform implementation support, user training and forward deployed engineering. 

What pain point does this fix in my company’s go-to-market motion to increase revenue?

Consulting services such as platform implementation assistance are a make-or-break parameter in software deals. As a result, you need to differentiate the sales pitch for your consulting services from competitors. 

Why can’t I fix this sales pain point with other methods?

Showing prospective customers rave reviews about your consulting services falls short because your competitors are doing the same. Real differentiation requires you to show prospects something your rivals don’t have. 

How does this increase revenue?

  1. More effective lead conversion. Table stakes services such as user training transform from a client necessity into a competitive differentiator when they’re honored with an industry award from the business press
  2. More upsell revenue. When you’re selling value-added consulting services such as custom solution development, leads need multiple reasons to choose you over the consulting firm that their company has been working with for the past decade. Winning an industry award for your professional services team gives prospects the extra buy signal that tips the scales in your favor
  3. Differentiation from LLM labs. If you’re selling AI-related consulting services, you need to stand out from the well-funded AI consulting practices of LLM developers such as OpenAI and Anthropic
