Does Your Agency's Business Model Allow for Future Growth?


When you break it down into its simplest terms, your recruiters' goals are to match jobs with suitable candidates. But we don't like to talk in simple terms, because our industry has evolved around this basic formula.

Instead of dumbing it down, we want to encourage you to rethink the way you sell your services. There are plenty of ways to package up how your recruiters deliver their magic, and there are a number of business recruitment models to consider too. Each agency business model presents a different set of benefits, alongside new challenges. The work you put in to choosing your chosen business model will dictate the best structure and direction for your agency.
