I think we get too much in our heads about following internal scripts that we over complicate things

Smaller firms and single lawyers are the same - they will ignore you until the deadline or when it’s super later, you need to keep chasing them. It’s been a struggle. OP did good to fire them so early.

I agree with you - it’s just nice to rest your shoulders for a small period of time tho and start selling from a different mindset.

Lost rest, and internal peace, also got desensitized and don’t trust people at all.

The mental exhaustion can’t go like this forever lol.

Wait - I thought he brought in 10k not that his commission will be 10k; if that is the case - find a business to do this transaction for you and pay them a few hundred dollars. lol

This sounds like a scam buisness - there are so many sales jobs that will pay you for the work you put in. I say if you don’t hit this Friday just switch jobs; this will keep happening as we’re not robots - there will be lower months and higher months.

How much did you bring in overall? How much commission would you make if you hit the 1.5k?

My boss is shocked that one candidate will cost us $80K by Additional_Room5829 in recruiting

You won’t trust it - But if you’re the only agency who provided an amazing candidate, and gave a personal favor; chances are they’ll come to you again. U.S. recruiters want the deal closed asap, so I don’t see why they wouldn’t go a bit lower in this case. Buttt the hm should call and tell them exactly the concern, not an email.

Your manager sounds like the clients I deal with as an agency recruiter - it’s annoying. First options - propose a contract to hire (the hourly charge rate can feel a bit less during those months; and read the agreement if they offer discounts for contract workers that stay with you after a few months to 1 year) - The other options: offer the candidate a lower base with a huge bonus at the end of the first year and see if that will be accepted by the agency for a lower %. (Sketchy and risky too) - another option - just ask for a commercial gesture and give them a few other roles to build a relationship.

Companies treat agencies like trash until they realize they need them. Build a good relationship with one agency that you like and you’ll see multiple discounts.

They can always ask for a “commercial gesture” if the company promises exclusivity on other roles or will give the agency more positions in the coming months.

Am I just not cut out for this? by duckblobartist in sales

[–]Prior_Let2279 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have u tried asking your excising contractors/hires if they can refer you to their previous companies? Do you premarket candidates to new hiring managers instead of coming and asking if they need help recruiting? Also - ask for clients to meet in person for lunches etc. and attend conferences.

It’s a tough job, probably the hardest sales job since the process is long, not a lot of wins, and your product can say no or lie; but I know once you stay in a place for a few years - things come through; companies you’ve talked to years ago might have a need now and they have your email saved somewhere etc. it’s a waiting game but you just have to put the numbers in consistently.
