From 100 Doors to 6-Figure Billings: Jeron van den Elshout’s Advice for Building a Global Recruitment Empire
Description
What do 100 door-knocks in a day and record-breaking recruitment billings have in common? Everything according to Jeron van den Elshout.
In this high-impact episode, Jeron shares how he went from nearly getting fired in his first sales job to founding a global recruitment business operating across the US, Middle East, and Europe.
You’ll hear how persistence turned rejection into revenue, and how a single conversation changed everything, catapulting him from frustrated jobseeker to top biller. Jeron breaks down the key differences between contingent, exclusive, and retained models, and makes a compelling case for why retained isn't just preferable, it's essential for hard-to-fill roles.
We cover:
- Reactive vs. proactive recruitment
- Why "exclusivity" can be misleading when internal talent teams are still in the mix
- Why the retainer model is optimal and what makes it hard to implement
- How Jeron built a personal brand of 40,000+ LinkedIn followers by sharing tips and staying authentic
- The creation of KOLY, a “recruitment incubator” helping consultants eventually launch their own agencies
This episode is packed with hard-earned lessons and practical insights from someone who’s done the work and lived the journey. Jeron brings the experience. Don’t miss it.
