Starting Up Your Own Recruitment Business
It’s All About You!
Of course it’s all about you! This is your dream, your ambitions. This is about you deciding that with all your experience, your market knowledge and your passion, it’s time you did it your OWN way.
Started earning for yourself rather than seeing your efforts reward your employer.
It’s about your style too. Admit it. You’ve long thought that you have your own ideas on how a recruitment consultancy should be run. Ideas on how to deliver a better client service. Plans for a really smooth candidate experience.
The fact is it is all about you in a very real sense.
Let’s explore the routes you’re most likely to take. First, you set up on your own, running it from home. You become a ‘bedroom recruiter’. Lots of people are doing it. But this way it’s entirely about you. Because you’ll be doing everything! The sorting out of finances, the setting up of even the simplest of systems, the admin. And that’s before you’ve even got to seeing clients, finding new business and talking to candidates. (While you’re spinning all those plates you’ll also be juggling the cash flow of course!). It’s all down to you.
Or, secondly, you set up something a bit more substantial. You rent an office and with a sound business plan in place (you have written the business plan, haven’t you?) you set about all the other things you need to do. Things like finding and hiring staff, which even recruitment people have to do! And when you’ve assembled your team it’s still all about you. You’ll have to lead them, drive them, enthuse them. You’ll have to make sure that they work the way you want your new business to work. Get them, and keep them, ‘on brand’. Your brand.
And, at the risk of repeating myself, that’s before you’ve even got to seeing clients, finding new business and talking to candidates.
You see my point? The business being ‘all about you’ because it’s your baby, dream, is really exciting. But your baby is going to need looking after, and if you don’t have the support you need you won’t have the time and freedom to do what you do best – which is …….Seeing clients, finding new business and talking to candidates.
