Case Study
Transforming Recruitment Success
– Aaron Smith and Initiate
Background
Aaron Smith is an independent recruiter and the owner of Initiate LLC, a recruitment firm specializing in the SAP market in the USA. His business focuses on both contract and permanent recruitment. When Aaron began working with Bamboo Performance, he considered himself "average by industry standards." This self-assessment was a starting point for a transformative journey.
Challenge
Aaron's primary challenge was overcoming his self-imposed limitations and realising his full potential in a competitive industry. While he had been successful, generating $180,000 in billings, he felt stuck and unsure how to elevate his performance to the next level.
Approach
We approached Aaron's situation with a focus on mindset transformation. Our coaching philosophy is centered around the idea that the key difference between an experienced recruiter and an elite recruiter is their mindset. He aimed to help Aaron unlock his potential by breaking down mental barriers and reinforcing his self-identity and confidence.
Results
The impact of our coaching on Aaron’s business was significant. Over the course of their partnership, Aaron achieved the following:
Increased Billings: Aaron's billings increased from $180,000 to $400,000+,
Record-Setting Fees: Aaron secured back-to-back record fees.
Enhanced Confidence: Aaron’s self-perception shifted dramatically, leading to a more confident approach in his professional interactions and decision-making.
“
When you are doing well in recruitment, it is difficult to know how to reach that next level.
EVERY recruiter knows they can do better.
Put simply, there is a formula for success, a method to breakdown barriers and remove mental blocks. And that is exactly what Dan Alexander does! He is the LOCKSMITH who unshackles recruiters and opens doors for them, they did not even know existed.
So many supposed coaches and trainers are preying on the anxieties of recruiters in the industry to sell a coaching program. Dan is the opposite, he is the ethical coach.
He will take you above and beyond your self-imposed limits.
This has been my experience.
I one hundred percent, unequivocally, unashamedly, unreservedly recommend Dan Alexander!
