How Lindsey Menezes Turned Her Business Around From Rock Bottom to Earning 57% More in Just 6 Months


Listen Later

When you’re growing your business, you notice that there are things within your business that are preventing growth. You find gaps between you and your goals and wonder what’s missing. Eventually, you realize that you have to step out of your comfort zone and do something different to get that growth you want. 

That’s exactly what Lindsey Menezes experienced when she felt stuck in her business. 

Lindsey is the Managing Director of Pace VIC and Pace NSW, a recruitment business focusing on logistics, supply chain, and procurement. She didn’t have a recruitment background, so she jumped right into doing a 360 role the moment she entered the scene. After all, it’s what everyone else was doing.  

But Lindsey found herself facing rock bottom in the middle of the pandemic. The entire business has shifted, and both clients and candidates now had different needs. She realized that she didn’t have the right processes and structure in place. She also felt like there was no clear direction. She had a vision of where she wanted this business to be, but she didn’t know what steps to take to get there. 

“What have I got to lose?” – This is what she thought when she learned about the Rockit program. It changed the way she looked at her business – from the way she connected with clients and candidates to the way she delivered her tasks. She stepped away from the 360 model and shocked her peers with her bold move, but this was a risk she took that eventually led to her earning 57% more in billables just around 6 months later. 

Tune in to this episode to discover how Lindsey turned her business around and brought it from rock bottom to peak growth.
