Are you an agency recruiter, corporate recruiter, or industry expert who wants to build your own recruiting business, but don’t know where to start or how to get new clients?

Maybe you’re:

- Unsure which niche to focus on
- Struggling to find clients 
- Trying to avoid conflicts with your current 9 to 5

I’ll work with you to:
✅ Refine your niche, launch your recruiting business, and run it in “incognito mode” if you have a day job
✅ Land your new clients using our proven automated client acquisition systems
✅ Make your first $20,000+ placement (often in under 90 days)

When a candidate asks "What's the salary range?"
Should you:

A — Share the exact range
B — Say "it's competitive"
C — Ask their expectations first

7 swaps to build your own recruiting business 🚀

Let's swap:

❌ Giving away 50-70% of your fees 
✅ For keeping 100% of what you earn
❌ Working every job order 
✅ For a hyper-focused niche
❌ Being tied to a desk 
✅ For working when and where you want
❌ Endless corporate meetings 
✅ For direct client relationships
❌ Racing to hit KPIs 
✅ For quality over quantity
❌ Being siloed as “just a recruiter”
✅ For running your entire desk
❌ Fighting over internal candidates 
✅ For building your own talent pool
I see it every week - recruiters transforming their lives after making these swaps.

Take Ginny: In just 90 days after leaving her agency role, she:
•⁠ ⁠Landed a major client
•⁠ ⁠Made 4 placements
•⁠ ⁠Billed $200k
•⁠ ⁠Works on her own terms

The best part? 
It's hiring season. Start laying the groundwork now, and you'll be ready to capitalize when budgets refresh.

AI is not a software installation.
It’s a cultural transformation.

You can’t send a memo saying “We’re an AI-first company now”
and expect productivity to show up on Monday.

AI is not something you install.
It’s something you adopt.

ROI doesn’t come from tools.
It comes from how people actually use them -
in the tiny moments, in the daily work.

This is culture change.
And 𝑀𝑎𝑠𝑡𝑒𝑟𝑦 𝑖𝑠 𝑤ℎ𝑒𝑛 𝑐𝑢𝑙𝑡𝑢𝑟𝑒 𝑐ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑔𝑒 𝑏𝑒𝑐𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑠 𝑏𝑒ℎ𝑎𝑣𝑖𝑜𝑟.

⸻

𝐋𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐡𝐢𝐩 𝐒𝐞𝐭𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐨𝐧𝐞

This isn’t a sprint.
And it’s not a multi-year grind.
It’s High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT).

Short, focused, consistent bursts.

Not “inspiration speeches.”
Not 50-page playbooks no one reads.

Just: 
→ Show your team how you use AI.
→ Share the micro-wins.
→ Share the confusion.
→ Share the adjustments.

Demonstrative leadership → drives adoption.

Your team learns by watching you.
Not hearing you.

⸻

𝐓𝐫𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 = 𝐆𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞, 𝐍𝐨𝐭 𝐂𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭

Every company has a graveyard of training videos no one has opened.

AI enablement cannot be “watch this module.”

It must be:
→ Context
→ Hands-on support
→ Shared best practices
→ Building internal champions
→ Protecting critical thinking
(Not outsourcing judgment to AI - ever.)

⸻

2026 is the year of AI ROI.
We plant the seeds in 2025.

Happy Friday Y’all - Raja Sampathi

𝐏𝐒: still thinking if AI is the future?

The greatest ROI from AI transformation isn’t the tools - 
It’s you.

This is your chance to build legacy.
The kind people talk about for decades.

You’re leading in a moment where we’re shaping a technology that can think (or damn close). 

That’s going to ask you to step out of your comfort zone and do something that hasn’t been done before.

In doing that, you’re not just boosting efficiency.
You’re creating a cultural and economic shift for your organization.

If you’ve seen 𝑆𝑒𝑎𝑏𝑖𝑠𝑐𝑢𝑖𝑡, they thought they were fixing a broken horse.
But it wasn’t the horse that changed.
It was them. In a way, both did. 

AI is the same.
You don’t just implement it.
You evolve with it.

𝐏𝐒: You are that AI Enthusiast Employee & Future Champion, you should be inviting your boss for for this lunch 

𝐏𝐏𝐒: I’m having lunch with this guy next week. He's an AI Champion,  what should I ask him?

Myths are for bedtime stories.
Let’s dispel the AI productivity ones.

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟏 - AI Should NOT be Used just for Productivity Hacks 

I once led an ERP implementation where the sponsor kept saying: 
“We’ll start with the low-hanging fruit.”

But AI actually does have low-hanging fruit. And it’s immediate.

They buy back time. 
Time → becomes problem solving. 
Problem solving → becomes value.

With AI, the low-hanging fruit is the meal.

Your time saved is 𝑓𝑢𝑒𝑙 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑡ℎ𝑒 𝑖𝑛𝑛𝑜𝑣𝑎𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 you seek.

(ERP implementations have no low hanging fruit, the sponsor got let go)

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟐 - You Need 47 AI Tools to See Results
Move over Fast & Furious, there are more AI tools being released than Vin Diesel sequels.

Here’s the truth: You don’t need a tool zoo. You need one or two tools - and fluency.

Your Copilot alone - used well - can unlock millions in value. 
(See post from Yesterday in comments)

𝐌𝐲𝐭𝐡 𝟑 (𝐦𝐲 𝐅𝐚𝐯𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐭𝐞) - “AI is a Fad, We Can Wait and See”

AI adoption is not a tech race. It’s a behavioral race.

Your competition knows, believes that and is scaling accordingly.

Those who start learning now will think differently, work differently, and lead differently - long before the “wait and see” crowd even realizes the gap has formed.

By the time most leaders notice the shift, they’ll already be on the wrong side of it.

PS: Part 3: Mastery drops tomorrow

𝐏𝐏𝐒 - Which AI myth riles you the most?

There are 2 kinds of leaders who will read this Wharton study on AI ROI

One will Consider action, other will do something about it 
This is not (just) a software installation, it is a cultural transformation 

And at the heart of it all, are people, and leadership
Never been easier to go fast , try and succeed with - 
deliberate use cases

But the risks of not doing so is - obsolescence, that will be fast too 

Time is not just enough to be on right side of History
Tis time to Write History 

𝐆𝐨 𝐭𝐨 𝐦𝐲 𝐀𝐛𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐒𝐞𝐜𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 to write history 

The full report is here - https://lnkd.in/gv5t9QrZ

AI can automate about 57% of current US work hours - McKinsey 
That should excite you. And scare you.

This is not a job loss story.
It’s a workflow redesign story.
And most leaders are playing defense.

Here’s the excitement:
→ If you redesign workflows (not just tasks), you can unlock serious value
→ AI fluency demand is up 7x in two years
→ By 2030, the US could unlock $𝟐.𝟗𝐓 𝐢𝐧 𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐮𝐞, if leaders prepare people and redesign work

Here’s the fear:
→ Digital and information work gets hit first
→ “Wait and see” becomes “too late” fast
→ Most skills still matter, but how you use them changes

3 Things you need to take away for 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟔 
→ AI Fluency is next key communication skill
→ AI Adoption needs to leadership led, Delegating to IT = 𝑃𝑟𝑒𝑝𝑝𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑓𝑜𝑟 𝑓𝑎𝑖𝑙𝑢𝑟𝑒 

𝐀𝐧𝐝 𝐓𝐡𝐢𝐬 
→ Work becomes a partnership: people, agents, robots - all powered by AI.

The winners will not be the most technical.
They’ll be the fastest to redesign work around humans plus machines.

What is your plan?
