Intent Signal Playbook

The Hiring Surge / Team Expansion Playbook

Identify companies expanding specific departments and sell the infrastructure they need to support that newly hired headcount.

Why This Signal Matters

When a company posts 15 new sales roles, they need seats for their CRM, more leads, and better training software. Hiring velocity directly predicts software and service procurement.

Who to target when this fires:

  • The Department Head (e.g., VP Sales for SDR roles)
  • HR/Talent Directors for onboarding tech
