Every recruitment leader and IT leader in recruitment wants their CRM and recruitment software to deliver real value into the business. But often, when my team and I begin working with a recruitment business, we find that the system seems to be the “sales-prevention-software” and thus an expense rather than an investment.
This Recruitment Leaders’ Podcast will give you ideas on how to reverse this problem, and turn your recruitment software into a key recruitment business enabler.
How Can You Make Your Recruitment CRM (at Least) Cost Neutral?
In this episode of my podcast, I spoke to James Payne, of Erecruit, about:
We all know what our recruitment software costs… or at least how much cash we give the supplier, but how do we know that it’s working? And what does “working” even mean?
Uptime? Creating loads of admin for busy sales people? Creating a great datadump of candidates that recruiters won’t have time to source from, so go “off-piste” on to LinkedIn instead of being on the phone. Of course not, recruitment leaders!
How do you know that your system is not working for you? And by working, we mean delivering what your business needs, not just a database to host GDPR compliant data?
Which 3 barriers to changing recruitment CRM should you ignore or further research?
What are the opportunity costs of not moving from one recruitment software to another?
How to lose clients by not moving your technology forward
How is your CRM actually restricting your more experienced (and high value) recruiters?
How can you use recruitment tech to retain your staff? Recruiter churn is embarrassingly high in a sector which professes to be able to recruit
Do we have too much data?
And a great question… How can you make your Recruitment CRM cost neutral?

Recruitment Marketing Event for Sales and ROI-Led Marketers
Recruitment Marketers need ROI from Marketing - whether it is more candidates, clients, colleagues, or cash... With that in mind, we presented the Marketing in Recruitment event with Members Only. It was for recruitment marketers who need to understand and prove ROI.Recruitment Marketers Need to Measure the Success of Their MarketingGenerating tangible ROI remains the holy grail for all recruitment marketers, but it can be a difficult goal to achieve. Simon at Members Only asked me to compere the event, so I used it as an opportunity to "pep talk" the marketers and their leaders.I talked about:The compelling reasons for sales and marketing to work together… 38% higher sales and 36% higher retention.How 98% of Marketers have experienced conflict with Sales at some point in their career and 73% of recruitment marketers are frustrated that their leaders just don't "get" them.What I think needs to happen for sales and marketing to be more connected and thus effective.If 60-70% of the content a marketer generates is never used, and 80% of leads are never followed up... what needs to happen?If 2/3 of the marketers who left their jobs last year said "not enough training", how on earth does the recruitment industry expect their marketers to generate any ROI?Read the slide deck from the event - food for thought?
