Founder-led SaaS Cost Negotiation for Startups

 

Hi, I’m Hervé Lagrange — founder of SmartNegoLab, a startup focused on vendor negotiation (Saas, Recrutement Agencies and HR Tech).

I didn’t come from tech. My background is hospitality, luxury retail, and direct sales. I’ve worked in fast-paced, high-stakes environments across the UK, France, and the Caribbean — learning how to read people, manage expectations, and deliver value on the spot.

That experience gave me a skill most startup teams don’t have time to master: the art of negotiating.

After years in business development both as an employee and independently, I launched SmartNegoLab to help startups stop overpaying on vendors like Saas, Recruitment Agencies, and HR Tech.
