• LinkedIn Sales Navigator (a must-have)
• LeadLeaper
• NeverBounce
• AllPro CRM or Zoho (still undecided)

Have any of you used these programs? I’d appreciate your feedback or any alternative recommendations!

Thanks in advance!

Contract vs Perm – Profit

Contract vs Permanent – Who Brings More Profit?

Hello everyone,

My colleague and I have been having a spirited discussion, and we can’t quite agree on the answer.

Here’s the scenario: a consultant earning £400k a year as a freelancer versus one earning £200k a year as a permanent employee.

Which one is contributing more profit to the business?

Historically, our company has set targets for incentives where freelancers receive a target of ‘x’, while permanent consultants earn 50% of that. However, the new policy has leveled the playing field, making targets equal for both groups, which means permanent consultants are now competing against freelancers who are often less experienced.

For context, freelancers and permanent employees operate independently, each under their own line managers in different regions.

Business owners, we’d love to hear your thoughts on this!

Low candidate reply rate in the Netherlands (need help)

Struggling with Low Response Rates from Candidates in the Netherlands

Hi everyone! I’m currently facing challenges in the Netherlands’ candidate-driven market, where there is a noticeable scarcity of talent. I find it difficult to elicit responses from potential candidates on LinkedIn. While I’m proficient in sourcing and using Boolean strings, and have successfully landed clients through email campaigns, engaging candidates has proven to be a struggle.

When reviewing profiles, I often see that candidates fit the job description, but I can’t find information about their aspirations or motivations, making it tough to initiate meaningful conversations.

I’m curious: How do you typically start your LinkedIn conversations?

P.S. If any recruiters in the Netherlands are interested, I’m open to discussing a split-fee commission arrangement.

My most embarrassing hire

The most cringe-worthy hire I’ve ever made.

Planning on Sunday and basics

Sunday Planning and Recruitment Essentials

Hey everyone,

I often hear recruiters emphasize the importance of mastering the basics for success. As someone in education recruitment, I’m curious to know: what would you consider the essential basics? If you were to create a list, what would it include?

Additionally, I’ve noticed that many recruiters dedicate Sundays to planning. Could someone share their Sunday planning template or outline what they typically do on Sundays to stay ahead in the competitive landscape? Thanks!
