Episode Highlights
“Whilst you might not be able to find the perfect team member right now, it’s the perfect time to get prepared to find the perfect team member as soon as people start moving, so you’re ready for action.” – 6:50 – Hollie Power
“When you’re recruiting, it is a buying and selling opportunity, you are buying somebody or they are buying into you, and you’re selling what you do, and they’re selling what they do.” – 7:20 – Hollie Power
“We talk about how your vibe attracts your tribe. Typically, we’re talking about your clients, but the same is true for your staff. You want to be in a position where people are like ‘Oh my God, I would love to go and work there!” – 11:20 – Ryan Power
“There are lots of people who have built their businesses purely on social media, purely on Facebook and Instagram, which is a massive mistake because you don’t own the traffic. Overnight, you could lose your platform, you could have your account shut down, or Mark Zuckerberg might make you start paying for traffic overnight.” – 14:00 – Ryan Power
“It’s estimated we see 6000 marketing messages a day across all different sectors. That is a lot. But the problem with that is it means people become blind to it, so they become blind to your message and they just turn off from it almost straight away.” – 18:00 – Ryan Power
“I would sit down with your managers, and I would talk to them quite frankly about where you see yourself going, where you see them going, and in what time capacity. Make a time plan and say, ‘You’re gonna need a bit of support from me, I want to make sure you feel safe and secure in your role, and I want to make sure you feel ready, so I’m not going to totally throw you in the deep end.” – 22:40 – Ryan Power
