    How Tamlyn Achieved 49% Growth & Her First Family Holiday in 14 Years After Streamlining Key Systems & Processes

    How Tamlyn Achieved 49% Growth & Her First Family Holiday in 14 Years After Streamlining Key Systems & Processes

    Tamlyn was running her recruitment business in South Africa when she realized she wan’t in a great space. As a mom of three, she was having a hard time juggling work and family time that she constantly felt there weren’t enough hours in a day. She was also very hands on in her business, spending even the holidays working.
    She started wondering if she was making the right decisions, and even considered changing industries. But when she was diagnosed with cancer, she realized she had no other choice than to make this work. She decided to jump in and make a few changes so that she can grow her business while taking care of her family and dealing with her health.
    That’s when Tamlyn discovered the Rockit program. She realized that there were so many ways to work strategically so that her business could still run and grow without her constantly being present in the office.
    With the Rockit program, Tamlyn learned multiple approaches to running the business. She began putting the right people in the right roles, empowering her team members to work smarter and not harder. Their billings were doubled and her staff became happy, motivated, and highly engaged — all while Tamlyn was attending chemo sessions and playing with her kids. Finally, Tamlyn was able to actually enjoy a holiday for the first time while seeing that the team working in the office were bringing in the numbers they needed.
    Tune in to this episode to discover how Tamlyn veered away from the traditional recruitment model she clung onto for a long time, and the changes she made that allowed her to find growth not just in her business, but also in her family life and health. 
    “We get so caught up working the same model that sometimes we can’t see beyond that model.” - Tamlyn Redmond
    In this episode, Tamlyn talks about:
    The struggle of balancing her recruitment business, her family, and her health The steps she took to continue growing her business while also dealing with cancer The multiple approaches that she applied to her recruitment model to grow her business exponentially How she dealt with high staff turnover and started setting up her team for success How she transitioned from being a generalist recruiter to finding a niche that brought them the growth they were looking for How changing their fees allowed her to double their billings Finding your super strength to systemize the business for efficiency and growth How her team solved the problem with inconsistent billing And so much more! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬

    When This 10 Year Old Recruitment Business Implemented the “Gold Jobs” Framework, Conversion Rates Increased by 40% Almost Overnight

    Jason had been running his recruitment business for a decade when he realized that he needed fresh ideas to make their growth more consistent. While Henderson Brown was enjoying a steady stream of clients across different industries, he realized that staff retention was a challenge, and their numbers kept fluctuating.
    While he considered the possibility of adding a new person to their team, he realized he just needed new ideas and stimulate new thinking within their existing team. That’s when he came across the Rockit program.
    Now that he heard fresh perspectives and learned new ways to do business, a renewed energy surged through Jason and his entire team, which positively impacted their business. From having the organization’s leaders bring in a majority of the revenue, they now have self-sufficient consultants who can bring in their own business, leaving Jason with more time to take care of his executive role.
    Tune in to this episode to discover how Jason maintained consistent, organic growth in their business while promoting a culture of accountability, which added even more value to the services they gave to their clients. 
    “Of course, they’re your client, they’re your customer, and you want to work with them collaboratively. But that doesn’t mean you have to say yes to everything they want you to do.” - Jason Kilbride
     
    In this episode, Jason talks about:
    The challenges that made him decide to add something new to their work dynamic How they dealt with their issues on staff retention and growth How to use data in spotting issues and finding solutions How they transitioned into the ultimate model and used it to complement 360 roles in their organization The changes they made on specific roles and how those changes impacted the business The attraction model and how it helped their team generate new business How a culture of accountability and ownership has benefitted their business And so much more! ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬
