STOP THE BLEED!
INDUSTRY VALIDATION:
You aren’t just imagining the waste. It is a documented industry crisis.
We didn’t invent the problem; we just solve it. Leading industry research confirms that SaaS waste is the single largest leak in the modern P&L.
- 50% of Licenses Go Unused A 2024 study by Nexthink analyzed 6 million workstations and found that 49.96% of installed software was never actively used by employees.
- $259 Per Desktop The same study found that the average company carries $259 in wasted software spend for every single employee on payroll. For a 200-person firm, that is $51,000 in annual waste sitting on the table.
- The “Maverick” Spend According to CFO Dive, unmanaged “Shadow IT” (software expensed by employees without IT approval) has reached critical mass, with 30% of SaaS licenses being “barely used or not used at all.”
Stop Paying for Software
You Don’t Use.
Reduce Your SaaS Spend by 20–30%
The average mid-market company wastes tens of thousands of dollars annually on “Zombie Licenses”—subscriptions for ex-employees, duplicate tools, and unused premium seats.
Strategy Partners Group performs forensic software audits to identify this waste with 100% accuracy. We operate on a pure contingency basis: We only get paid a percentage of the savings we identify.
SECTION 1: The Silent Leak in Your P&L
Software is the second-largest operating expense for most companies, yet it is the least managed.
As you scaled and added employees, you hired fast and purchased tools faster. Now, your accounts payable is riddled with inefficiencies:
- The “Zombie” Seat: Paying $150/month for a Salesforce license for an employee who left in October.
- The “Coma” User: Paying for a Premium Zoom license for a manager who hasn’t hosted a meeting in six months.
- The Duplicate Stack: Paying for Asana, Jira, and Monday.com simultaneously because different departments aren’t talking to each other.
Industry data shows that 30% or more of SaaS spend is wasted. We find that waste and help you plug the hole in your operating budget.
SECTION 2: The SPG Forensic Audit
We don’t need access to your bank accounts. We don’t need IT admin rights. We rely on data reconciliation.
Step 1: The Data Sync You provide us with simple CSV exports of your Active Employee Roster (HR – Names and company email only, no personal information) and your User Lists (from major tools like Salesforce, Microsoft 365, Zoom, etc.).
Step 2: The Analysis Our analysts process your data while your team focuses on your business. We cross-reference payroll data against software usage logs to identify every discrepancy.
Step 3: The Recovery Report Usually within 24 hours you receive a detailed Findings Report containing:
A list of “Zombie” accounts to cancel immediately.
A list of inactive users to downgrade to free/viewer tiers.
A calculation of annualized savings.
SECTION 3: Our Pricing Model
Zero Risk. 100% Aligned Incentives.
Strategy Partners Group operates on a pure contingency model. We do not charge hourly fees or retainers.
If we find no waste: The audit is free.
If we find savings: Our fee is 30% of the first year’s realized savings.
Example: We identify $40,000 in wasted annual subscriptions. You save $40,000. We invoice you $12,000. The $28,000 goes to your bottom line rather than that of some Silicon Valley giant.
