How to scale a recruitment business

Over my years helping people set up in business, I regularly get asked two questions. 

1. Can I build a business to sell – which I discussed in a recent podcast

2. How do you scale a recruitment business

Well, the quick answer to the second question is that you can’t!

Well, not in the traditional meaning of scaling a business, anyway. Why? Well, scaling traditionally involved growing revenue without growing the underlying costs to the same degree – something difficult to achieve in recruitment, where any increase in revenue usually comes with additional staff costs.

That doesn’t mean there aren’t ways you can grow your business, and in this podcast, I look at some ways you can increase revenues without increasing costs at similar levels. 

If you’d like to read more on this subject, I’ve also written a blog on how to scale a recruitment business, too. It’s got some useful statistics and tools to help technology free up your recruiters to focus on what they do best – making money.
