Commodity … or Special Sauce?
11/21/2023
Recruiting and Search Consulting … it’s not a widget.
It’s not a commodity.
No two people are the same.
No two firms are the same.
We have a client prospect with several difficult to fill positions … the primary HR person we are working with believes we can help her ….
But her one-up manager who hasn’t spent one second evaluating firms says, “we have enough firms right now” …
A client with whom we’ve done a bunch of work with over the past few years has a new HR person, and she told us, “we’re all set right now” ….
OK … can we please talk for a moment? Would love to share some details of the last 8 people we placed in your company, who are still thriving.
Fasteners, nails, chemicals, steel, plastic resin … products that are all made to exact specifications …. commodities.
Physicians.
Attorneys.
Financial planners.
Tax Advisors.
Investors.
Search Consultants.
Recruiters.
Bad ones will cost you dearly …
Great ones … will be the best money you ever spent.
40-46, rain, clouds.
Make it a great day, everyone!
