HR/Recruitment playbook

An acceleration playbook for your HR or recruitment services, not generic business advice.

Your roadmap and coaching adapt to the human reality: candidate care, client urgency, fee collection and the founder who does too much of the placement work.

Phanda E.Diego M.Sara L.Addee A.Nia M.Luca R.Elena G.Jonas W.Sara V.Priya S.Greg T.Tom B.Shannon W.Amara O.Marcus R.

Operators who have built and scaled real businesses.

Your practice. Your goal.No equity taken.Remote, wherever you build.

How your AI coach reads the business

Your recruiting service, modelled for repeatable placement.

When you tell your AI coach you work in HR or recruiting, it reads your business through a placement, client and candidate relationship lens.

01

Client urgency

Managing the difference between a client who needs someone 'now' and one who will actually hire.

02

Placement economics

Tracking fees, replacement risks and the true cost of each search.

03

Candidate care

Building a pool of quality talent so you can move quickly for new client briefs.

04

Process leverage

Moving the search and review work away from the founder.

  • Taking on every role a client asks for
  • Searching without a clear contract and fee agreement
  • Spending too much time on roles that don't convert

  2. 02Draft a clear search brief and fee agreement before you start
  3. 03Build a pool of candidates in your niche
  4. 04Deliver your first search to prove your process works

Illustrative. Your AI coach proposes moves from your own numbers and you approve each one.

How an operator helps

Where practices get stuck.

Operators who have run service businesses spot these early, and work through them with you.

Trap 01

The urgency trap

Chasing urgent roles that turn out to be low-priority for the client.

Trap 02

Replacement risk

Spending so much time on replacements that you neglect new search business.

Trap 03

Every search and candidate requires the founder, limiting your growth.

Trap 04

The fee gap

Waiting months to collect fees after a successful placement.
