Retain, recruit and grow your clientele.
That’s the mission OneHQ’s tech aims to accomplish for a client base that’s growing around the nation.
The fast-growing company creates customized customer relationship management platforms for insurance firms, helping their sales, operations, advisors and managers make better decisions with detailed, digestible analytics. Its customer relationship management platforms also help streamline internal communication in and improve insights for companies’ operations.
OneHQ CEO Kyle Ginavan said that the platform is similar to Salesforce, but tailored specifically to insurance, securities and finance companies. With customized CRMs, the firms can better mitigate attrition, recruit new clients and thoroughly analyze performance.
A specific focus on insurance, securities and finance firms has helped the company gain traction and maintain steady growth, Ginavan said. OneHQ’s monthly recurring revenue has increased 90 percent per year for the last three years, Ginavan said.
Previously based in the Kansas City Startup Village, OneHQ outgrew its Kansas City, Kansas, digs and now has a staff of 12 in Overland Park. It’s also looking to hire seven more people as it eyes a fourth consecutive year of at least 90 percent recurring revenue growth.
