How Betts Helped Hadrian Hire their First Enterprise GTM Hires in Manufacturing Technology

The Challenge

Hadrian, a rapidly growing manufacturing startup, faced the challenge of building their go-to-market (GTM) function from scratch. They had no existing sales team, no experience with RevOps, and no structured post-sales support. As the company scaled, they needed to establish these critical functions to sustain their growth.

The Solution

Betts partnered closely with Hadrian to understand their unique needs and helped them hire the key players to establish both their sales and post-sales functions. The team at Betts guided Hadrian through their first-ever GTM hires, helping them bring on board the right talent to meet their growth goals.

The first key hire Betts made was an Account Executive (AE), who was later promoted to Director of Sales. With the following hires being 2 Technical Program Managers, all who had 5+ years of selling experience in the manufacturing engineering industry along their first RevOps Manager, who would be tasked building out their entire RevOps function which required 5 years of experience under their belt. These hires established the foundation of Hadrian’s post-sales function, ensuring a smooth transition from sales to customer success and optimized their revenue operations, a function they had never had before.

Betts continues to support Hadrian in expanding their sales team by hiring more AEs to scale their GTM team. Thanks to Betts’ expert recruiting and understanding of Hadrian’s needs, they successfully built out their sales and post-sales functions, laying the groundwork for future growth. Betts continues to work with Hadrian, supporting them in expanding their sales team and ensuring they have the talent necessary to reach their ambitious goals.
