January Surge

If You’re Starting Your Own Recruitment Business This Year Will You Be Ready For January 2018 Surge?

Yes it sounds a long way off!
But there is something interesting here you need to consider. January does, repeatedly, deliver a surge in job seekers. And huge numbers of them are seeking online. This January saw reports from sites including Gumtree, and CV Library that indicated a massive spike in online recruitment activity.

Get online

As a recruitment professional you have to be engaged with that. If online is where people are out looking, it’s online where you have to be outstanding. Running your own recruitment business now means that you have to have the best systems, the best software – and the best support to make sure it all works.

So, you start your own recruitment company this year. You’ve got the experience, the know how and the drive, and this will be the year you do it.

Have everything in place

You’ll need to sort finance and backing of course. Plus, you’ll have to arrange premises, staff, marketing, accountancy and all the legal aspects of getting started, but with your enthusiasm there’s no reason to assume that you won’t get up and running. Well, you might get ‘up’, but will you be fully ‘running’? Because there is that question of the increasingly important software. You’ve got to source it, install it and organise some kind of package to deliver the support you’ll need. And that can be a real drain on your time when you’e trying to establish your brand and run a business.

Keep on top of technology

Maybe you can muddle through for a while, but soon, because of your drive and enthusiasm, you’re getting lots of clients and candidates; now, if your brand is going to survive, it will have to perform. And then, sooner than you think, it’s next January, and here comes that online surge again, crashing into the inboxes and systems that you said you’d get up to speed but somehow haven’t quite found time for.

The answer then is to be fully up and running from day one. And how do you do that?

It Won’t be a Holiday

Starting Up A Recruitment Company It Won’t Be A Holiday But Could Just Be The Break You Need…

It’s that time of year isn’t it? Christmas is out of the way, television and papers full of ads to remind you that now is the time to book your summer holiday.

And that dream you’ve had, like so many recruitment consultants, comes back into your mind, the one about starting up on your own. It’s even more attractive now -as maybe if you were your own boss you could take a holiday whenever you wanted.

That’s not exactly true though and it certainly wouldn’t be true of the early days of running your own show. Perhaps you’ve even realised that and thought that maybe staying as an employee is, well, safer.

The dream doesn’t go away though does it?

But here’s the truth. Starting up on your own wouldn’t be a holiday. You’d have to work at it. Find clients, and candidates. You’d have to make your mark in the marketplace, to prove to those clients and candidates that you really do deliver that different, better, service that you’ve always thought yourself capable of, if only you were the boss. With all of that going on, and income to generate, holidays will have to come later…for now

Sorry about this, but there are some more hard facts to face. All of the above issues only become issues, and a welcome challenge, when you’re up running. And to get there you’ve got to find the finance, the premises, the branding and your website. You’ve got to somehow earn enough from the onset to support yourself. And ideally get it all organised so that you can focus on running and growing the business, which is what you do best.

That’s not going to be a holiday either! If you were running your own recruitment business, free of financial worry, without risk and able to concentrate on growing the business you’d be happy. And, you’d be happy to delay taking a holiday for a bit, until things were looking good and you felt able to do it, and that you deserved it.

Well, we can help. Helping recruitment professionals start their own businesses is what we do. With zero financial risk, a guaranteed salary, plus shares and dividends, you’re free to concentrate on starting up. With access to a full back office and support system you’re operational from day one.

Now that way you can start to think about realising the dream. It will be hard work, but it will mean you’re actually getting on with the work of growing your own business without being distracted by cash flow, bills and all the other things that our support package delivers for you.

It won’t be a holiday, but we think we can give you the break you’ve been looking for.

Protect Your Lifestyle

Starting Up A Recruitment Company There’s Being A Lifestyle Recruiter – And There’s The Lifestyle That Comes With Starting Your Own Recruitment Business!

In the recruitment industry we all seem to agree, broadly, on what we mean by a Lifestyle Recruiter.

“Typically someone who wants to take their experience as a recruitment consultant and ‘go it alone’, with the aim of addressing that ‘work life balance’ uppermost in their planning.”

They usually do ‘go it alone’ in a very real sense, operating as a one person business.

But, if you’re talking about ‘going it alone’ in the sense of starting your own recruitment business, with a high street office, and staff, then that’s a different thing. And it brings up some other issues around your lifestyle.

In fact, those issues may well have been the reasons you’ve perhaps thought about setting up on your own ( a lot of recruitment consultants have!) and decided that maybe now is not the right time. Because, let’s face it, being your own boss may bring you a bit more flexibility to work around the school run or do some other things, but it’s all about the money really isn’t it? The risk.

Those first few months of running your own recruitment business will be exciting, but, to begin with, there will be more cash going out than coming in. The premises, the marketing, the computers, the systems – they all have to be sourced and paid for, and all before the first clients start paying you.

We realise that, so what we do is help recruitment professionals start their own businesses by protecting their lifestyle – as it is now.
How does that work? We’ll provide all the funding you need to start up, plus shares, dividends – and a guaranteed salary. And finance aside, we’ll provide a full back office and support system.

Think about that. A genuine, no risk, start up. A regular salary from day one. 100% fund-ing to back your business – which you’ll have shares in. Dividends payable to you. Ac-countancy and HR services are included. And we’re there to mentor and support you from the outset, and as you grow.

In fact it’s everything you need to get started, without impacting on your lifestyle. You know – like being able to pay the mortgage, meet the bills – and eat! Because, if you’re worrying about all of that, you’re not going to be focussed, and free to concentrate on building your business.

When you are free to concentrate on building your business your chances of success are of course greatly improved. And that will change your lifestyle. For the better!

We’re not sure if that’s changed your definition of a ‘lifestyle recruiter’ but we’re pre-pared to bet it’s made you think again about starting your own recruitment business; because now you can do it without risking your lifestyle.

The Lonely Recruiter

Starting A Recruitment Business Is Better When You’re NOT On Your OWN.

We know, because we talk to a lot of recruitment consultants and their dream ticket as I am sure yours maybe is to start up on their OWN. To have their own business

BUT many worry about being on their OWN.

Becoming that ‘Lonely Recruiter.’..an expert in their field starting up on their own with little support, guidance or a back office support function to keep things ticking along.

And why not, you have come from being an employee of a recruitment firm, having it all done for you and NOW its down to you.

But what if there was a solution..

At Recruit Ventures we like to think that you should never feel lonely as your way is our way.

Your way ahead is to start your own recruitment business. Our way is to provide you with the finance and freedom to do it. Your way needs capital to launch, a guaranteed salary and shares in your own business. Our way is to deliver all of that – and then support you with a full back office system and mentor you all the way. Your way has a risk but Our way removes it.

But we do even more than that. The fact is that setting up on your own can leave you rather – on your own. Suddenly all the things that need doing, you have to do. Things you’ve taken for granted, perhaps, as an employee. The payroll, the tax issues, the office systems, HR matters – they’ve all been done for you. Now, it’s down to you.

As a start up it can be even more demanding. Premises to find, leases to sort, furniture, fittings, computers, systems – they all have to be organised. By you.

And – sorry to rub it in – but it can get tougher still. There’s no reason to assume that you don’t have the talent and dedication to tick all of the above tasks off the to do list, but even then you’ve got a business to run, and you’re new to it. You need advice, and someone to bounce ideas off. You need a mentor. Except now, you’re the one they come to. It can be lonely in those first few months of start up.

Which is where we come in – again. Over and above all the finance, salary, shares and systems we’ll be there with advice too. The Recruit Ventures team are experts in running recruitment businesses and they’re there for you as mentors and guides.

So, with Recruit Ventures backing you’ll be running your business, without running the risk. And you’ll be running a business of your own – except you won’t be on your own.

This is your opportunity. Own it.
