Today’s guest is Simon Monaghan.
Simon is a highly skilled tech recruiter who’s on a mission to change how the industry perceives recruiters.
He grew up with ADHD, which had its challenges but ended up being one of his biggest superpowers. His need to approach things in a methodical way helped him prioritize his time and create systems that drove the business forward.
In his first year of setting up his business (Odd Shoes), he was working just 30 hours a week but still managed to bill almost 300K.
He's obsessed with providing quality but also doing things as efficiently as possible. This is a stark difference in today's workaholic culture where people believe they need to be working every hour of the day to get the best results.
During his 3 years running his recruitment business, he's billed just over 700k. He can attribute £324,000 to having come directly from writing engaging job ads that resonate with his candidates.
In today's episode, we'll cover how Simon manages to maintain a top biller status while working just 30 hours a week. We cover the importance of copywriting and some tools he used to become a better copywriter. We also cover how Simon managed to find his "WHY" in recruitment and how that allowed him to perform better and be happier!
