Great software deserves
a sales engine.

"Building a strong B2B application has never been easier. Selling it to established companies is as hard as it ever was."

1The new bottleneck

Vibecoding with tools like Codex, Cursor or Claude has dramatically lowered the barrier to building B2B applications. Any expert or seasoned team with a unique domain expertise can now build outstanding software. But building was never the finish line. Getting in front of established software companies, and turning their interest into signed contracts, takes a sales and marketing engine that most small teams have neither the time nor the budget to build.

2Our answer: an externalized one-stop shop

Instead of asking you to master a bewildering array of tools and technologies, or to hire dedicated marketing and sales teams, AAiA acts as your go-to-market department. Over 90 days we run the full journey with you: research into your market and personas, a landing page built to convert, content such as videos, email sequences and call scripts, and finally lead acquisition across LinkedIn, Meta, YouTube and email.

3Measured in qualified opportunities

B2B Software sales cycles take months, so we don't pretend every contract will be signed within 90 days. Instead, we agree on an objective you can verify: a number of qualified opportunities based on the BANT methodology. Budget is available, the person who signs the deal is identified, the requirements match the solution, and a timeline is defined. That is real pipeline, and that is what we commit to.

4The philosophy behind every engagement

Shared risk

The monthly retainer fee during the 3-month period is paid 50% upfront and 50% upon reaching the objectives. A revenue-share agreement keeps us aligned afterwards.

Selective by design

We only start after validating your project maturity (first customers signed), the enterprise-readiness of your solution, a demonstration session and a personal assessment. If it is not a fit, we say so.

Expertise, amplified by AI

Trustworthy go-to-market expertise sets the direction; AI automation delivers the volume. Together they achieve in 90 days what a small team could not achieve alone.

5The people behind it all

Selling B2B software is built on trust, and trust is built by people. Behind every campaign, every script and every sales call there is a person who puts their reputation on the line, and you will always know who that is.

That works both ways. The personal assessment at the start is not a formality: a 3-month journey only succeeds when both teams genuinely want to work together.

Domain expertise is your unfair advantage.
We're here to turn it into signed deals.
