Selling recruitment and staffing services to employers to wholesalers

Wholesalers buy in bulk from producers and sell to retailers, trades or hospitality, with owners, buyers and warehouse managers each involved in decisions. They look for new product lines, better logistics and tools that handle many orders with a small team.

Recruitment agencies win new employer clients by spotting companies that are hiring and reaching out to offer help. Keeping those employers in your own lead database lets you track conversations and return to them when new roles open.

The wholesalers that need recruitment and staffing services to employers are listed publicly. What most recruitment agencies lack is a list they own, with the right fields, that shows who was already contacted.

What recruitment agencies run into with wholesalers

Employer prospects sit in personal inboxes and spreadsheets of each consultant.

Put every employer into one shared database with unlimited users on the account.

You forget which companies already said they had no need right now.

Tags and notes on each contact record exactly what was said and when.

Orders@ addresses are flooded with customer orders.

Choose buying@ or info@ as prefixes instead, and add your own where it fits.

Wholesaler lists span unrelated categories.

Tag categories and save a filter per tag, so each campaign fits the product range.
