Building connection before selling! long long process

Hi folks,

I've been working with this project - https://persondrive.com for six month with the mission to enable new employee to make impact from day zero with clear onboarding process.
My strategy was to work with HR consultants to get feedback on the product. So far the feedback is encouraging, with some connections along the way. However, I have to admit that I didn't make any sales yet.
What's your suggestion on leveraging your own connections on making sales? Would you go with the push or pull model?

Cheers,
Vuong
