About CRM Force
Boutique means something different when the person who built the company has done the work.
Saad Ahmed spent 20 years as a CRM consultant, solution architect, and implementation lead — building marketing automation and CRM systems for clients from start-ups to publicly traded enterprises. He founded CRM Force to bring practitioner-led vetting to a space dominated by generalist agencies.
Every candidate goes through a two-step internal qualification process — reviewed by two separate evaluators before they reach you. We confirm experience, certifications, technical depth, and fit. You receive a shortlist, not a resume dump.
CRM consultants, architects, developers, and admins. Marketing automation specialists. RevOps leaders, business analysts, and project managers. If it touches the CRM or marketing technology stack, we place it. Contract, contract-to-hire, and direct hire — across all seniority levels.
We Recruit for You
Three reasons companies choose us over a traditional recruiter — and what makes the difference in practice.
Vetted by Someone Who Has Done the Work
Saad Ahmed, founder of CRM Force, spent 20 years as a CRM Consultant and Solution Architect — building HubSpot implementations, designing data models, and running client engagements himself. When he reviews a candidate for your role, he is not reading a job description. He is evaluating whether someone can do work he has done himself. That distinction matters.
No Resume Dumps. A Shortlist You Can Act On.
You receive 3 to 5 pre-vetted candidates, each with our written assessment — why we believe they fit your role, where they are strong, and what to probe in the interview. Our internal process puts every candidate through two separate evaluation stages before they reach you. You only meet people who have cleared the bar.
Three Engagement Models. One Standard.
Contract for short and long-term engagements. Contract-to-hire when you want to try before you commit. Direct placement for permanent roles. Every model includes the same sourcing, multi-stage screening, skills assessment, and reference validation. The delivery vehicle changes — the standard does not.
Our Recruitment Process
Four steps from brief to shortlist — no surprises, no padding, no wasted interviews.
We Learn Your Requirements
A focused role briefing call — not a generic intake form. We ask about portal size, Hub configuration, seniority level, technical depth required, team structure, and what a genuinely great candidate looks like for your specific situation. The brief matters more than most clients expect.
We Search Our Network
We work our pre-built database of CRM and HubSpot professionals alongside targeted outreach to passive candidates who are not actively applying. The majority of the people we present are not on job boards — they are available to the right opportunity, if the right person asks.
You Receive a Shortlist
Typically 3 to 5 pre-vetted candidates, each with our written assessment — not just a resume. We tell you why we believe each person is right for your specific role, where they are strong, and what you should probe in the interview. You decide who moves forward.
We Support You to Offer
We coordinate interviews, facilitate debriefs, provide market-rate compensation benchmarks, and support you through the offer stage. The search does not end when we send the shortlist — it ends when you have the right person in the role.

Signs You Need a Dynamics 365 Business Analyst
A few things we hear from clients before they reach out.
- Your D365 implementation started with poorly defined requirements and the results show it
- Business stakeholders and the technical team are misaligned on what is being built
- You are expanding D365 to new business units and need requirements gathered before work begins
- Your current implementation gaps are requirements failures, not technical failures
- You have no functional specification documents and are building from memory and meeting notes
What to Look For in a D365 Business Analyst
Strong D365 BAs are structured analysts who can facilitate a room of stakeholders and translate the output into actionable specifications.
Red Flags to Watch For
- Cannot distinguish between a business requirement, a functional requirement, and a technical specification
- Has no hands-on D365 platform experience — treats it as a generic CRM without module-specific knowledge
- UAT experience is thin — has never coordinated a formal UAT phase with real business users
- Requirements documents are vague and lack acceptance criteria
Whatever your sector, we know CRM talent.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do I need a D365 Business Analyst if I already have a Consultant?
- On smaller implementations, one person often performs both roles. On larger programs — multiple modules, complex business processes, or multiple stakeholder groups — a dedicated BA significantly improves quality and reduces rework from poorly documented requirements.
- What is the difference between a D365 BA and a D365 Consultant?
- A BA focuses on eliciting, documenting, and validating requirements. A Consultant typically takes those requirements and configures the system. The BA's output feeds the Consultant's work. Some experienced consultants do both; dedicated BAs are more thorough on the requirements side.
- How long does it take to hire a D365 Business Analyst?
- CRM Force typically delivers a shortlist within 5 to 10 business days. We focus on BAs who have genuine D365 platform knowledge — not generic business analysts who have been given the D365 title.
- Do D365 Business Analysts need certifications?
- Not required, but MB-910 (Dynamics 365 Fundamentals) or MB-910 plus role-specific certifications are common and demonstrate platform awareness. More important is demonstrable requirements documentation and UAT coordination experience.
