Economic indicators officially suggest that U.S. businesses will be subject to recessionary market conditions for the foreseeable future. In parallel, many segments of the Staffing Industry are facing an inevitable shift from a candidate-driven marketplace to a client-driven marketplace. As a result, staffing organizations and search firms must allocate more time and resources to client development and marketing activities. In a contracting marketplace, competition for new business will be keener than ever, prospective clients will be more discerning than ever, and lost client engagement opportunities will be more damaging than ever.

In this compelling presentation, “Getting Above the Noise” – Advanced Recruiting Trends CEO, Paul Siker, will address:

- Approaches and techniques that can help you engage hiring authorities more effectively

- How to project a more consultative and compelling selling style

- How to Distinguish yourself not only as a “recruiter of choice,” but also as a “solution of choice”

If you are looking for an opportunity to refine existing client marketing activities, enhance your value proposition to prospective clients, or elevate your firm’s brand identity with the ultimate goal of garnering more business in a lean market environment, you won’t want to miss this presentation.

“Paul, Thanks so much for a job well done. I truly enjoyed the presentation last night and look forward to receiving the “nuggets” that you will be sending. Your information was timely, informative, and most of all practical. In these “tough economic times” we don’t need to spend an evening listening to just motivational jargon. And thankfully we didn’t. I walked away with ideas and methods that I could implement immediately.My staff will probably be tired of hearing your name! I have already began the mantra, “Well Paul said……!”  Thanks again for providing a worthwhile program to the GAPS membership.”
