    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.

    The Modern Cover Letter: Short, Targeted, Powerful

    Let’s be completely honest: most cover letters are absolutely terrible. They are dense, generic, and painfully boring to read.

    Personal Branding for Introverts: How to Stand Out

    The conventional wisdom around personal branding in sales feels exhausting for introverts: constant networking events, daily social media posting, aggressive self-promotion, and being “always on.” If you’re an introverted sales professional, you’ve probably felt the pressure to adopt extroverted behaviors to build your brand and advance your career. But effective personal branding doesn’t require you…
    5 Red Flags Recruiters Look for (And How to Fix Them)

    Tech sales recruiters review hundreds of resumes and LinkedIn profiles weekly.

    How Enterprise Sales Became a Multi-Stakeholder Strategy Game

    In the traditional “golden age” of sales, the path to a closed-won deal was often a straight line. You identified a decision-maker—usually a charismatic executive with a budget and a problem—convinced them of your value, signed a contract, and moved on to the next lead. This “single-threaded” approach relied on personal rapport and individual authority….
    You Should Prioritize Alignment Over Compensation in Tech Sales

    In the hyper-competitive world of tech sales, it is easy to be blinded by the “Big Number.” Recruiters often lead with eye-popping On-Target Earnings (OTE), signing bonuses, and equity packages that look like lottery tickets.
