The Mike Ames Recruitment Show

The first thing you need to grow your business is a scalability mindset

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.
