Recruiters! 10 Stats About Why Recruitment CRM Generates Easier Sales
Recruiters and leaders who want to make more placements—with less admin, cost, and time spent chasing hard-to-fill roles—need to rethink how they’re using Bullhorn.Too many recruitment sales strategies rely on LinkedIn, job boards, and Google, outsourced marketing, blood, sweat, and tears, while overlooking the most valuable asset: your CRM. That makes you less competitive, and costs you time, money, and margin.It's time to get proactive and revenue-generating!Recruitment Data Wealth💵💶💷Recruiters need clean, warm databases to see them through easy and tough times.I've seen a lot of tech and data paralysing the recruitment market, but still do not see enough of a connected approach to account management and lead generation in the recruitment sector. Lots of time and money is wasted buying more systems, and access to more data, rather than monetising what you have.If your Bullhorn CRM isn't clean, connected, and proactively used for lead generation and account management, you're sitting on a data dump—not a goldmine.What you need is:Engaged, loyal clients who refer.Candidates who come back—and bring their network.A CRM that drives leads, not just tracks them.This is what I call Data Wealth.💸 Start Monetising What You HaveRecruitment tech is booming, but also at a time where many recruiters are trying to cut back and need more sales. AI and Automation is a key goal for many recruiters and leaders this year. But what’s the point of more platforms and data if you’re not maximising what’s already at your fingertips?Instead of spending more on sourcing more leads, Linkedin Recruiter, and outsourcing your BD and marketing, start tapping into your own Bullhorn and data.
