Leads for Recruitment & Staffing Agencies

The buyer depends on what you sell. A light industrial staffing firm sells to plant managers and operations leaders who need workers next week. An IT or executive search firm sells to department heads and HR leaders on a slower timeline. Temp-to-hire, contract and direct-hire services each have their own pitch.

Larger companies often buy contingent labor through managed service providers or vendor management systems. Getting onto those vendor lists is a different sale from winning a single job order. Small and midsize firms usually buy direct, and the hiring manager may also be the owner.

We start by agreeing on your niche, your ideal client and the roles you know well. Outreach that names the roles you fill and the markets you serve gets more replies than a generic staffing pitch.

Cold email to business contacts is legal in the US, but CAN-SPAM still applies. Every message needs an honest subject line, your physical address and a working opt-out that you honor promptly. We send from separate domains that are set up and warmed properly, so your main domain stays healthy.

Calls and texts to mobile numbers fall under the TCPA, even when the contact is at work. We do not make calls or send texts. If your recruiters call prospects, they should check do-not-call lists before dialing. LinkedIn's user agreement bans most automation tools, so our LinkedIn work is done by people, not bots.

Our outbound sales service runs the cold email. Our LinkedIn lead generation service handles profile outreach and LinkedIn ads.

Recruitment campaigns start at $1,000 a month, and setup for lists, domains, tracking and messaging is quoted up front.

Cost depends on how many markets and industries you target, the seniority of your buyers and how many channels you run. Executive search outreach takes more research per contact than light industrial outreach.

We report replies, meetings held, job orders received and placements by source, using data from your applicant tracking system or CRM. We will not promise a number of meetings or a fixed cost per lead.
