One thing that annoys me about some of the Recruitment and Search Firm Owners who approach me… are those looking for a quick fix…
And this isn’t to point fingers at anyone, because I’ve even been there myself…
So desperate for success you become obsessed with finding that ‘miracle cure’…
That magic pill…
Or that one solution that’s going to make things start happening for you overnight…
The truth is… It almost NEVER happens that way…
Don’t get me wrong…
You CAN achieve things pretty quickly in this business…
You CAN get very dramatic results in a very short amount of time…
It is possible to change one or two things in your business and see results almost instantly…
But it doesn’t always happen that way…
Very often, any actions that you take today and for the rest of the week, might not yield results until 6 months from now…
Perhaps even longer…
That’s probably not what you want to hear… But it’s the truth!
(Even though some so called guru and experts will never tell you this…)
Growing your Recruitment or Search Business is a lot like steering a ship…
Remember the ‘Ice Berg’ scene in Titanic?…
Let me refresh your memory…
Two guys are stood shivering on the deck when suddenly they spot the ice berg right ahead of them…
They FREAK OUT!… They take immediate action and run to the phone to call the lieutenant Screaming “pick Up You Bastard!”
The lieutenant finally picks ups, they tell him the news and he freaks out too…
He then takes immediate action and runs to tell the guy actually steering the ship…
And he also freaks out!… and begins frantically turning the steering wheel like a mad man…
The whole engine room is in a state of panic… People are running doing a whole bunch of stuff but the ship doesn’t seem to be moving at all…
Meanwhile… The two blokes in the crow’s nest are panicking too, screaming “Why aren’t we turning? Why aren’t we bloody turning?!?!?”
And then…. CRRUNNNCCHHHHHHH!!! the iceberg starts ripping into the side of the mammoth steamer ship that’s barely even turning… and the rest is history…
Remember??
Well… Your Recruitment or Search Business is kind of like that…
Except there’s no Kate Winslet asking you to draw her “like one of your French girls”…
And there’s no fresh faced Leonardo DiCaprio…
So it’s kind of worst…
It’s just you, running around in the engine room doing a bunch of stuff…
But you might not see results straight away…
It might be weeks or even months before the ship starts turning!
The trick is, to start turning the ship WELL before it’s about to hit an iceberg….
