Helping Coaches Turn Strangers -> Relationships -> Clients | Host of the Podcast "I Need a Coach!" - The Opposite of Every Linkedin Marketing Company - Let Us Prove To You We are Different | NinjaProspecting.com

Most lead generation companies promise big results. Few deliver what really matters: genuine conversations with people who actually want to work with you.

At Ninja Prospecting, we do things differently.

We’ve spent the last eight years helping over a thousand coaches, consultants, and entrepreneurs create real opportunities on LinkedIn, without spammy tactics, bots, or fake personalization.

Our approach isn’t about gaming the algorithm or blasting DMs. It’s about mastering a process that helps you build relationships, earn trust, and convert naturally.

Because let’s be honest, people can tell when you’re pitching. But they also recognize when you’re being real.

That’s where we come in.

We help you stand out with clarity, authenticity, and systems that actually work. You’ll learn how to identify your ideal audience, position your profile to attract the right people, and write outreach messages that sound human, not robotic.

And we don’t stop there.
We go beyond lead generation to help you convert those conversations into clients through sales and mindset training, simple follow-up systems, and practical tools that keep you consistent.

If you want to do it yourself, we’ll teach you how.
If you’d rather hand it off, our trained VA team can run your campaigns for you — using the exact strategies we’ve refined through thousands of client conversations.

Our clients choose us because we don’t sell hype.
We build systems that are sustainable, ethical, and personal — helping you grow your business in a way that feels good.

The truth is, you don’t need more automation. You need more alignment.
When your message, audience, and approach work together, that’s when you start seeing consistent results, not just leads, but loyal clients who actually value what you do.

That’s the Ninja way: relationship-first, strategy-backed, and results-driven.

If you’re ready to see how we do it differently, check out our short video below — it’ll show you exactly what makes this approach stand out:

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT?

We do EVERYTHING manually.  Good old fashioned hard work.  100% Done For You.  

We have a background in networking, sales, and copywriting.  

We start with the end in mind.  What end result are you looking for?  Appointments?  Website/Training Registrations?  We don't assume we know what you are trying to achieve, and to be honest (one of our core values), we don't know if we CAN help you.  

From there, we create the game-plan, strategy, campaigns and copy for you to review.  

We TRACK literally everything so you have full visibility and we have full accountability.

We are a family company.  

We know what works and what doesn't, and stay on top of trends to help clients be as efficient and effective as possible.  

We LOVE what we do.  We LOVE being the "secret" weapon for you on Linkedin.  

In a world of spam and mass messaging, we take you step by step through creating and executing the ideal strategy to fill your pipeline with ideal prospects. 

Your time is better spent in front of prospects. Not chasing after them.  

Not sure of the best strategy to get optimal results? We develop it with you and then for you.

Not sure how to find your best prospects on Linkedin? We do it for you.

Not sure what to say without being spammy or salesy in your messaging that gets results? We have professional copywriters who do it for you.

We are your Linkedin secret weapon.

We UNDERPROMISE and OVERDELIVER. We believe in working with fewer clients, helping them have more success.

Mark Whitby

Non Executive Director

In June 2008, the recession almost killed my business. I lost 3 of my 4 biggest clients and more than 50% of my income overnight. I had a mortgage, two kids and our third on the way. I was scared out of my mind... 

I'd already invested 7 years of blood, sweat & tears to build a 6-figure sales training business for the recruitment industry. Now I was starting over again. My confidence took a huge hit.

Out of desperation, I learned everything I could about digital marketing. There's so much conflicting advice about online marketing that it's easy to get confused and overwhelmed. But my back was against the wall. I had to push through and MAKE it work. I made lots of mistakes, but I eventually figured it out.

Today, apart from referrals, I get 100% of my new business from digital marketing.  Best of all, using marketing automation the inbound leads keep flowing even when I'm busy working with clients.

Now I help recruitment business owners to escape the feast/famine roller coaster and create consistent, predictable placements. Some of my clients have doubled or even tripled their billings in 90 days. Check out my 100+ LinkedIn recommendations below.

I don't claim to have all the answers, but I'm happy to share what's worked for me and the hundreds of recruitment business owners I've coached.

Behind every high-performing recruitment business is a strong operating system.

That’s why I’m pleased to share that Recruiterflow is a founding sponsor of The Resilient Recruiter Podcast Live in Edinburgh this April.

Recruiterflow is the AI-first operating system for recruitment agencies and executive search firms.

Most platforms give you either a solid ATS or flashy AI tools without real operational depth.

Recruiterflow brings both together.

A powerful ATS and CRM at the core.

AI built directly into your workflows, not bolted on as an afterthought.

So your recruiters can focus on conversations and decisions, while AI handles the heavy lifting in the background.

If you’re building a modern recruitment business, this is the kind of system you run it on.

If you’d like to see it in action, you can request a demo here:

Host, The Resilient Recruiter Podcast | Creator, The 6 Pillars of a 7+ Figure Business™️| Helping recruitment agency owners increase billings by 200-400% in 6-12 months with tailored coaching, courses & community.

From $400K to zero.

Then nothing for six months.

Harrison Wright launched his recruitment business and billed nearly $400,000 in his first six months.

Then the market turned.

Hiring froze. Searches disappeared. He was burning $30,000 a month just to stay afloat.

Most recruiters would respond by doing more.

More calls. More CVs. More pressure.

He did exactly that.

It didn’t work.

So he rebuilt the business.

Today, he runs a retained model with an interview-to-placement ratio of 2.16 to 1 and clients worth more than $350,000 over time.

This episode looks at what actually changed.

“I can’t keep making $40,000.”

That’s what Larissa Gerlach told her manager in her first year in recruitment.

She was doing 200+ calls a week.

Hitting the activity metrics.

Showing up every day.

And still wondering if she was cut out for it.

Three years later, she was President’s Club.

Later, the CFO of a PE-backed firm asked her to replicate her results across 25 offices.

That became a national training programme.

Here’s what she learned:

Top billers aren’t created by activity alone.

They’re built inside environments that demand repetition, accountability, and practice.

In this episode of The Resilient Recruiter Podcast, we break down what that environment actually looks like and why most founders struggle to build it.

If you’re building a team, this conversation may change where you focus.

🎧 Episode 301 is live.

Thanks to Recruiterflow for supporting this episode.

Want to get your new recruiters productive fast and maximize your team’s performance?

Let us transform new hires into confident, self-sufficient billers -- without you taking time away from your own desk. 

We’re running a structured, 18-week training program built specifically for recruitment agency teams. 

There are two tracks - you can enroll in either, or both:

Recruitment Sales Mastery - Starts March 17th
Turn your recruiters into business developers. They’ll learn how to generate consistent new business, including planning, lead generation, cold calling, objection handling, and more.

Recruiting Excellence  - Starts May 26th
Give your recruiters the skills to close more placements. They’ll learn how to fill more jobs, faster, including advanced sourcing strategies, candidate qualification, offer management, and more.  

Each track delivers 10 weeks of live training followed by 8 weeks of coaching and role play to ensure skills stick. Plus scripts, frameworks, weekly assignments, and manager feedback/reporting.

Led by my colleague, Larissa Gerlach. 15 years of recruitment and sales leadership. She has trained 300+ recruiters who now generated millions in placement fees. 

Full details in the comments.

You call a client six months after the placement.

"Oh… he left."

You had no idea.

Most recruiters have been there. You make the placement, celebrate, and move on. The pressure to fill the next role takes over.

Lewis Waitt and Jessica Multhauf see the placement as the starting line. 

Their firm offers a 12-month guarantee on every placement. And more than 90% of their hires are still in the role after a year.

How?

Because they stay involved long after the candidate starts. Structured check-ins at 30, 60 and 90 days, then quarterly conversations throughout the first year.

It's a simple idea, but very few recruitment firms actually do it.

We unpack their full process in this week's episode of The Resilient Recruiter Podcast.

🎧 The episode goes live this Wednesday.


Out of curiosity, how long do you stay involved after a placement?

Brendan Thomas started his recruiting career at 36. Got fired the day he closed a $60,000 fee. Started over six days later.

Five years on, he has generated over $5 million in billings largely by targeting the accounts most recruiters are told to avoid.

This conversation covers how he breaks into enterprise clients, navigates HR gatekeepers, and earns the kind of access that turns one placement into a long-term partnership.

If you're building towards larger accounts, this is the playbook.

🎧 Listen to Episode 302

One placement can be a transaction. Or it can be the start of a long-term enterprise relationship. Most recruiters treat it like the first. Brendan Th

How to Win Enterprise Clients and Turn One Deal Into Recurring Revenue

“You are going to be told no more often than yes. And that's okay.”

Brendan Thomas said that when he joined me on The Resilient Recruiter Podcast.

He has generated over $5 million in billings across six years in the industry.

And much of that success has come from focusing on the accounts many recruiters are advised to avoid.

Enterprise clients.

The organisations with hundreds of open roles, multiple layers of HR, and vendor lists you’re not on.

Brendan goes after them anyway.

He leads with a real candidate. Reaches out to the hiring manager. And when the answer is no, he asks why.

Over time, those conversations start to open doors.

Access to hiring manager calendars. Direct relationships. Ongoing partnerships.

In this episode, Brendan explains how he breaks into enterprise accounts, earns trust with HR, and gradually turns one placement into long-term client relationships.

If you're prepared to hear more no's than yes's, this episode shows you exactly what to do with them.

"We're not another yes person to our clients. They bring us in because we challenge them."


Lewis Waitt and Jessica Multhauf run ALINITI, a Cincinnati-based firm that has been working with privately held and family-owned businesses for 25 years.

They didn't start as a recruitment firm. They started as HR and organizational development consultants. Recruiting came later, after they kept seeing other agencies fall short for their clients.

That background changes everything about how they work.

Before every search, they run a 90-minute role clarity session. They challenge unrealistic briefs. They write the job description themselves.

And when the candidate starts, they don't move on to the next role.

They stay involved for 12 months.

30, 60, and 90-day check-ins. Quarterly conversations. Joint meetings with the new hire and their manager. A readiness chart tracking progress all the way to month 12.

The result?

More than 90% of their placements are still in the role after a year.

So they back every search with a 12-month guarantee.

This episode covers how they built a four-service business that weathers downturns, why the placement is just the starting line, and what most recruitment firms get wrong about client relationships.

🎧 This week's episode of The Resilient Recruiter is available now.

Out of curiosity, how long do you stay involved after a placement?

"Investing in somebody's training will immediately impact your bottom line."

That's Larissa Gerlach. She's trained recruiters who are now billing over $2 million a year.

She knows what works. And she knows what agency owners get wrong.

Most skip training because it doesn't seem to make money right now.

It does. 

It just takes longer than a quick fix.

That's why we built The Academy. 

18 weeks. 

Live sessions. 

Real skills that stick.

Business Development track starts March 17. 

Recruiting Excellence track starts May 26.

Want to know why most recruiters are curious about AI but never fully commit to using it?

They don't trust it.

And honestly, that's fair.

Most AI matching tools hand you a ranked shortlist and expect you to accept it. No context. No reasoning. Just trust the algorithm.

That's not how good recruiters think.

Your clients pay for your judgment. A black box doesn't give you that.

I've been looking at how Recruiterflow's AIRA Matchmaker works and this stood out to me.

Unlike most matching tools, it shows you the reasoning behind every shortlist. 

Which criteria matched? 

Why is one candidate ranked above another? 

A score you can actually explain to your client.

You set the criteria in plain language. Edit it. Prioritise it. Run it again.

The tool works around your judgment, not instead of it.

Recruiters don't resist AI because they're anti-technology.

They resist it when they can't see what's happening.

When the reasoning is visible, trust follows. And that's when AI actually gets used.

Link in comments.

How long does it take new recruiters to become consistent billers?

The reason I ask is that most recruitment agencies that scale run into a speed bump.

New recruiters take too long to start producing and training pulls you away from your own desk.

Overheads increase while your own production suffers.

That's why Larissa Gerlach and I are offering a structured, 18-week recruiter training program.

It's designed to get your new hires up to speed faster so you don't have to train them yourself.

Let us develop your recruiters into self-sufficient billers.

How long does it take new recruiters to become consistent billers?

$400,000 in six months. Then the market crashed overnight.

Six months with no revenue. $30,000 a month going out. He did what most recruiters do - more calls, more CVs, more pressure.

It didn't work.

Harrison Wright doubled down on positioning, retained work, and delivery. 

Today he runs a practice with a 2.16-to-1 interview-to-placement ratio. 

The bear market that's hit most crypto recruiters hasn't touched his pipeline.

This week's episode covers how he did it, why he never pitches the job on the first call, and what changed when he stopped chasing the wrong clients.
