No doubt, the most frustrating aspect of running a military-focused recruiting agency occurs when my team fails to get a candidate hired.

If our recruiters strike out and cannot present the perfect candidates fast, our clients either fill their open positions without us or hire candidates from competing agencies.

When that happens and we are unable to make the placements — which is, unfortunately, more often than I like to admit — we have nothing to show for all the time and money we’ve invested in these unsuccessful searches.

Nothing! Zero placement fee revenue and lost opportunities to help more Veterans get hired. It absolutely sucks! A similar situation also occurs when our recruiters identify highly talented and marketable Veterans, yet we lack the right clients for them.

If we can’t immediately present these top-performing candidates to hiring managers, our candidates are gone, and again any chance of generating revenue has vanished. And here’s the real bummer about both of these lost opportunities.

I know other military-focused recruiting agencies — our competitors — most likely have the missing piece we desperately need: the ideal candidates for our clients’ open positions, or access to hiring managers with the perfect jobs for our marketable candidates.

Can you relate? Does your agency sometimes face the same challenges? If so, this is exactly why we launched the recruiting industry’s first Split Fee Network focused exclusively on military Veterans.

Here’s what I propose. Let’s team up — ONLY when you’re in a jam and can’t make a placement on your own. The best part…everyone wins! — your veterans, your clients, and most of all, your bottom line!

Together, we can make a massive impact in the military community and help so many more Veterans get hired, and that’s something we can all be proud of. It’s why we’ve all dedicated our careers to this extremely important mission. In addition, we’ll help our clients add more top-performing Veterans to their teams…leaders who will help them grow. And, when that happens, they’ll need to hire even more candidates from you. So I encourage you to join us today and give our Military Network a shot.

It’s free so there’s never any risk on your end, no monthly fees, and no obligations. As one of my mentors told me when I started 7 Eagle Group 10 years ago, collecting half a fee is always better than no fee. You’ll simply share revenue 50/50 from your network placements…that’s it.

Other split networks like NPA Worldwide and Top Echelon are responsible for connecting hundreds of agencies who in turn make thousands of new placements every year.

The timing is perfect for the estimated 150 military-focused recruiting agencies to join forces and do the same! Remember, there’s power in numbers and I’m confident we can do some amazing work together for this community we both love so much and give your agency a huge competitive edge.
