Whether you want to change to scale up, become more profitable, win more new clients or attract better employees there are four obstacles you ALWAYS have to overcome. We see it all the time. The owner of a recruitment company is keen to develop their firm but it just doesn't happen. Or it does for a bit, then it peters out and they go back to solely working “in” their business. If you only overcome 3 out of these four obstacles your chances of success are still very remote. Beat them all and it's harder to fail than succeed. So here they are: - Focus: no clear idea of what you want the business to look like and no plan to achieve it Knowledge: lacking the detailed know-how of what to change and how to change it Time: lack the time to work “on” your business to make the necessary changes Discipline: little or no accountability so discipline wains over time. In today's #MARShow we explore these in detail and how you can beat them all. Having a change framework means you'll build a “habit of change” so the results you want will eventually come. Remember, the more you work “on” your business today, the less you need to work “in” your business tomorrow.
Most recruitment companies fail to scale for the same reason. The owner has a recruiter mentality rather than a scalability mentality. If you own a recruitment company (even if you are a solopreneur), and you have a recruiter mentality you're pushing water uphill. Step one on your journey to scale is to adopt and nurture a scalability mentality. This is the subject of this #MARShow: what is a Scalability Mentality, and how can you get one. A scalability mentality has 7 parts to it, and we'll reveal all of them. I wonder how many of them you already have? Anyhoozle, just to get you started here are the first three: - ❶ A deep belief that your business is there to serve you, and not the other way around. ❷ You are as strategic as you are tactical (you need to be both). ❸ You feel no guilt for working “on” the business and taking time off for yourself. These are the easy ones but there are others you need to know about. Adopt a scalability mentality and I believe it's harder NOT to scale than it is to scale. The thing I am most proud of achieving with my clients is changing them from a recruiters who own a business, to a business owners who just happen to do recruitment. There is a world of difference between the two, and I want you to be the latter.

When you run a recruitment firm the dream is to sell it but, how likely is this to happen and how much will it be worth? In this episode of the #MARShow we will answer both questions. We'll also share the characteristics of recruitment companies that are particularly attractive to potential buyers. Well, when I say “we” I mean our special guest, Carl Swansbury, founder and Head of Corporate Finance of corporate finance house Ryecroft Glenton Corporate Finance. Carl has bought and sold dozens of recruitment companies on behalf of his clients, so he knows a thing or two about it. In the show we drill into: - ✅ how do you value a recruitment company? ✅ what makes a recruitment company attractive to buyers? ✅ when should you begin to prepare for a sale?

If you're a solopreneur recruiter or own a small recruitment firm and want to break the link between the hours you work and what you earn then this show is important. Virtual teams are a great way to grow your business without committing to permanent staff, plus you can now hire people anywhere on the planet. But this approach does come with some risks, which is why we are covering it in today's Mike Ames Recruitment Show. Our guest is Ward Hampton who successfully runs a virtual team. He's an English search consultant, lives in Peru, services clients in North America, EMEA & Asia-Pacific and employs zero staff. However, he has a team of 5 people spread across the globe. We will ask him the following questions: - ❶ Why did he choose to run a virtual team and what are the benefits? ❷ Who's in his team and what do they do? ❸ Where does he find his people from? ❹ How does he manage the team? ❺ What lessons has he learned along the way? Bottom line here is, virtual teams can help you grow quickly, but it needs to be done in the right way. Do that and you can easily break the link between hours and money. In other words you can scale up.
We all want to improve our profitability and one way to do this is build offshore people into your team, but how do you do this successfully? Well, that's the topic of our next Mike Ames Recruitment Show: offshoring for beginners. It's also for those who've tried it, and it didn't work out. On this, we'll be exploring the reasons offshore projects often fail, so you can avoid them yourself. Like most things, there's a way to approach using offshore people that will significantly increase your chances of success. So, we've invited Ketan Gajjar, (https://www.linkedin.com/in/ketangajjar/) founder and MD of RPO Arena to share the secrets of a successful outsource project. This is what we cover: - ❶ Why offshoring often fails to work. ❷ Tasks and roles you can move offshore and the results you can expect. ❸ The commercial arrangements. ❹ How to measure and manage offshore people. ❺ Taking the first steps. With harder times expected, now is a great time to embrace offshore and see how it can support your business. When done properly, you not only get great results for less cost, but getting experienced people is considerably easier than finding equivalent people in the UK.
Good afternoon, I'm _____ with today's episode of EZ News. Tai-Ex opening The Tai-Ex opened marginally lower this morning from yesterday's close, at 17,341 on turnover of 3.1-billion N-T. The Tai-Ex followed most other regional markets and lost ground on Tuesday - falling by 199-points - as investors lacked cues from Wall Street overnight due to U-S markets being closed on Monday. CDC Releases Medigen COVID-19 Vaccine Contract The Centers for Disease Control has released the contract used to purchase Medigen Vaccine Biologics' coronavirus vaccine. According to C-D-C Director General Zhuang Ren-xiang, the 58-page document was made public after Medigen's board of directors passed a resolution authorizing (授權) the government to release it. Zhuang says the contract had been reviewed by the Control Yuan, the National Audit Office, and the Legislature prior to its being made public and no evidence of illegal behavior was found. The contract was signed in May of 2021, and the government purchased 5-million doses of the Medigen vaccine, of which 200,000 were donations for the government's help in funding the vaccine's development. Former Professor Jailed for Fake Bridge Inspection Reports And, The Hsinchu District Court has sentenced a former university professor to six-months in prison for falsifying (偽造) documents relating to the safety inspection and assessment of three road bridges in Hsinchu County. Chen Ming-cheng owned an engineering consulting firm based in Taoyuan. Chen was found guilty of instructing a student employee to file fake reports indicating that the Tai-He, the Hou-Hu and the Rui-Guang bridges in Xin-Feng Township had all been inspected. The student employee was sentenced to 4 months imprisonment, suspended for two years. Both verdicts can be appealed. French president sets out new policies in marathon news conference The French president has set out new policies ranging from liberal market reforms to an overhaul (檢修) of parental leave. Emmanuel Macron made the announcements in a marathon news conference on Tuesday. Ross Cullen reports from Paris. Shell to Sell Business in Niger Delta Shell has reached an agreement with a consortium of companies to sell its onshore business in Nigeria's Niger Delta in a deal worth $2.4 billion. It is the latest move by the London-based energy major to limit its presence in the challenging Niger Delta environment, where it has faced decadeslong local pushbacks to its oil exploration. Activists want Shell to address environmental damage, such as compensation (賠償) for affected communities, as a condition for the government's approval of the deal. Shell says the deal is designed to preserve its commitments, including remediation where spills occurred in the past. Kenya Begins Rhino Relocation Program Kenya has embarked on its biggest rhino relocation project and has begun the difficult work of tracking, darting and moving 21 of the critically endangered beasts to a new home. A previous attempt at moving rhinos in the East African nation in 2018 was a disaster as all 11 of the animals died. The rhinos are being relocated to a conservancy because they need more space to roam and, hopefully, to breed. Rhinos are generally solitary (獨自的) animals and are at their happiest in large territories. There are just 6,487 wild rhinos left in the world, according to rhino conservation charity Save The Rhino, all of them in Africa. Kenyan authorities say they have relocated more than 150 rhinos in the last decade. That was the I.C.R.T. news, Check in again tomorrow for our simplified version of the news, uploaded every day in the afternoon.

Everybody has to write job ads from time to time, some more than others, but could they be better? Well, the stakes are high because we know great ads attract better candidates. We also know that everybody's attention span has diminished so it's increasingly hard to attract attention. Question: has your attention span diminished over the last few years? In truth, the words you use have a massive effect on the stickiness of anything you write. The same goes for blogs, long-form LinkedIn posts and even candidate profiles, but especially job adverts. My question is: could we be better at writing them? I suspect the answer is “yes” (well, I know it is for me). To help, we've invited Anna Iveson, an expert in writing ads, onto the show. Her tips and advice can be applied to most online copy, but we are focusing in on adverts. ֍ How to grab attention ֍ Building interest in the role ֍ Increasing the chances of people responding to your ads In these challenging times, the power of the written word is only going to increase!

Daniel Mercedes Jr. started the business that would become The Dancing Empanda by selling food out of the trunk of his car. “I was looking for a little side hustle to do and I just remember grandma making the empanadas,” Mercedes said. “So that's what I decided to do. So we talked about it and she gave me the recipes and I started making empanadas and going to barber shops and mechanic shops out of the car and just to see how we grew and they loved it.” At the time, Mercedes was working at a transitional home through the Department of Corrections. He was selling his empanadas on the weekends. “Then once I got to the place where I was making the same as my check, that's when I decided to give my two weeks' notice and I ran with that,” he said. “I was very surprised to see that if you put into work, you know, and the product is good, you can make money off of it.” That was eight years ago. Since then, Mercedes has expanded his business into two food trucks — which he's been running for four years. His wife has also become a part of the business. “The hardest part is what my wife does, which is making the empanadas and also getting us job contracts,” Mercedes said. “I'm driving the food truck — it's the easiest part — working it is easy because we only have empanadas.” Now, four years into running his food trucks, Mercedes is getting ready to retire. “Now we're actually selling the business with the recipe, the empanada machine, everything that comes with the business — the name, the brand,” he said. Mercedes has parlayed his success with The Dancing Empanada into purchasing property in North Carolina, which he has outfitted with some tiny homes he plans to use as vacation rentals. “(The Dancing Empanada is) a great business to have is just our journeys over with it,” he said. On the latest episode of Florida Foodie, Mercedes shares more about how he built his business. He also talks about working with his wife and children, as well as his plans for the future.

Many prospective bakers dream about having a brick-and-mortar bakery someday, but few recognize the not-so-glamourous truth about what it takes to actually get there. Jenni Reher lives in Mead, CO and started a vegan & gluten-free donut business named Rustic Donut back in 2015. Initially she used her home kitchen under Colorado's cottage food law, but eventually moved into a shared commercial kitchen in Loveland, CO so she could wholesale her donuts to coffee shops. Over the course of 4 years, Jenni grew her bakery into a substantial business, with about 20 wholesale accounts that re-ordered every single week. But then in 2019, when her business was doing better than ever, she decided to sell it to a vegan restaurant. Why did she sell? Why did she want to quit? Why didn't she pursue her initial dream of owning a brick-and-mortar? In this episode, you'll not only learn about great strategies about growing a vegan, donut, and/or wholesale bakery, but you'll also get an honest look at what NOT to do so that you don't end up burnt out at the height of your business.Get full show notes and transcript here: https://forrager.com/podcast/66
