Running your own recruitment business is tough. It’s hard enough running your own desk in an agency. The market is volatile, there is competition everywhere – for people’s attention and their wallets.
Everyone believes they’re good at what they do and that they should be a natural choice for their clients.
But it’s not true.
Especailly if you ask clients real opinions about the majority. Thankfully we’re not in the majority. We can do something about it.
In this episode I share three common barriers to growth and strategies to help you deal with them, today.

Firing clients is something we’ve all imagined.
Strangely many choose to put up the disfunctional relationships they find themselves in.
Scared to push back.
Worried about losing a customer.
But if they’re a drain of time, energy and resource and aren’t creating profit in enough abundance they’re a liability. I’m sharing a few stories and tactics that can help you devleop a better strategy to grow a portfolio of good customers - who value you and are profitable.
As a recruitment professional you’ll enoucnter clients who treat you like ‘another supplier’. They’ll do this for as long as you’re willing to accept it. Because when you reset the agenda they have a choice.
Go back to the old supplier who let them down or change their behaviour to continue enjoying the experience of working with you.

The big myth in recruitment is the importance of control. Or more accurately, the poor advice as to who should be in control.
When you attempt to exercise control over another, it leads to manipulation. And feeling manipulated is not pleasant. It leads to candidates ghosting you and clients following their own path, rather than your advice.
Making placements is critical - it takes something more sophisticated that being in control. You need to be in command.
This episode explores what this really means and how you can elevate your status with higher levels of command.

Time is an issue for many in recruitment.
Not enough hours in the day. Too much to do.
Yet there are those who seem to be super productive. Highly efficient.
What do they do that others don't?
I'm going to share with you a few truths about the lies we tell ourselves about time management and how you can become more productive without increasing hours worked. it doesn't mean ti's going to be easy. And there's no quick fix.
When you know what it takesyou can own the choices you make about where you invest and where you sacrifice time. And that's one of the three things that's totally in your control in this life.

Most in recruitment understand the importance of finding the pain - unearthing the problem in their sales process. The clearer we are on the problem, the easier it is to showcase the value of the solution we provide.
Unfortunately most clients don't recognise their problems. Because, just like us, they only know what they know.
To increase your success at selling in recruitment the more familiar you are with the relationship between the holy trinity of success - problems, symptoms and implications the easier you'll find it to engage fully with your prospects.

Questions are the core to achieving good results.
The better your questions the more you can help others to think deeply about what matters to them. The real magic is in your ability to listen and observe.
Good listening and observation opportunities are only possible with good questions.
In this episode, I share six powerful questions to help you to help others make better decisions. And I’d consider them to be power tools for life, not just for recruitment.

When you have customers who you enjoy working with and they spend good money it’s a joy. Not every customer is equal – some can be drains on time and energy for less return.
It’s important you know who your best customers are, the ones you can develop into great customers and who you could replace.
This episode is all about increasing customer spend, protecting your best customers from feeling unloved and creating a customer development project in your business.

The elephant in the (meeting) room for recruiters is the simplicity of what they do. When you meet a prospect who boldly claims that “all agencies are…” or “other agencies are willing to do it for less” that there is little to no discussion about what “it” actually is.
Whatever you recruit – CEOs on million dollar base or legions of temps to work in factories on minimum wage, you’ve got to know your it.
And be able to explain it to someone who thinks they know what it is to help them realise – you only know what you know.
