    July was a month of reflection as the financial year came to an end, and the standard yearly reports painted a picture of how 2023 panned out.

    It’s fair to say that it was a more turbulent financial year than the one prior, but one thing that I’m really proud of was winning six Sourcr Awards in their yearly July Awards ceremony.

    Sourcr is an independent review platform where candidates and clients rate their experience with each Agency they deal with.

    To win these awards means a lot because they are voted by the people for the people, giving them more meaning and relevance than other Awards that are given out to the highest bidder.

    A special shout-out goes to {tag LinkedIn]Rich Lees , who won Recruiter of the Year in Sales for both ANZ and NSW.

     

    The roll call for the Awards won is below;

     

    🏆 Agency of the Year – Sales

    🔥 Best Agency – Sales, NSW

    ✨ Recruiter of the Year – Sales

    ⚡ Best Recruiter – Sales, NSW

    🎖️ Recruiter of the Year – Marketing

    📢 Best Recruiter – Marketing, NSW

     

    We could not have achieved these incredible results if it hadn’t been for the many Technology businesses and job seekers who have put their trust in us over the past 12 months and beyond.

    So, if you want to add to your Sales and Marketing team or are thinking about a move, this recognition will tell you that you are in safe hands.

    How AI Has Changed Selling: What Top Sales Reps Do Differently

    Ask a candidate in a sales interview whether they use AI and almost everyone says yes. That answer tells a hiring manager nothing. Every rep has ChatGPT open in a browser tab. Every rep has tried a call recording tool that summarises next steps. Using AI is no longer a differentiator. It’s table stakes. What…

    GTM Tech Sales Hiring Forecast: What to Expect Through Late 2026

    GTM hiring is not collapsing. It is sorting itself into two very different markets, and most people are still planning as if only one of them exists. Overall GTM job postings across US digital native companies fell 15% in Q1 2026 compared to the same period last year, and that pullback continued into April. At…

    How to Write Cold Emails That Get Responses

    Most cold emails fail before the reader gets to the second sentence. Not because the product is weak. Not because the timing is wrong. They fail because the email was written to explain the sender’s company instead of starting a conversation with the reader. Open almost any inbox and the pattern repeats itself. A paragraph…

    How to Scale a GTM Sales Team: A Complete Guide to Building a High-Performing Revenue Engine

    Every high-growth company reaches a point where its early sales strategy stops working. In the beginning, founders often handle sales themselves. They build relationships, close the first customers, and refine the product based on direct customer feedback. This founder-led approach is essential for achieving product-market fit, but it isn’t designed to scale. As demand grows,…

    How to Optimize Your Sales GTM Funnel

    Every GTM team has a funnel. Very few teams actually know where theirs is leaking. Leadership looks at top of funnel volume and bottom of funnel revenue, sees a gap between the two, and calls it conversion rate. That number tells you almost nothing about what to actually fix. Optimizing a GTM funnel is not…

    GTM Frameworks Every Sales Team Should Know

    Ask five sales leaders which framework their team uses and you will usually get five different answers, delivered with the same confidence, and at least two of them will not be able to explain why they chose it over the alternatives. Frameworks get adopted because a previous employer used them, because a conference speaker recommended…

    Tech Sales GTM Metrics That Actually Matter

    Most sales teams are drowning in dashboards and starving for answers. Calls made, emails sent, meetings booked, activity scores glowing green across every rep’s profile. None of it tells you whether revenue is actually safe. This is the quiet failure sitting inside most GTM operations. Not a lack of data. A surplus of the wrong…

    How to Optimize Your LinkedIn Profile for GTM Recruiters

    Recruiters do not read LinkedIn profiles. They scan them. Three seconds on the headline, five on the current role, maybe ten on the experience section if something catches their eye. If your profile has not been built with that scan in mind, you are being filtered out before anyone reads a single line of your…

    How to Prepare for GTM Job Interviews Like a Pro

    Most candidates prepare for a sales interview the same way they prepare for any interview. Research the company, rehearse a few stories, show up confident. That approach might get you through round one. It rarely gets you the offer. GTM interviews are different because the interviewer is not just evaluating whether you can talk about…

    Why Sales Talent Is Getting Harder to Hire, Not Easier

    Sales roles remain in high demand despite a tighter economic climate and the rise of AI across the funnel. That surprises a lot of people, because the assumption is usually the opposite. Less budget and smarter tools should mean less need for sales talent. Fewer reps, fewer headaches, fewer headcount lines to justify at the…
