Digital Recruiter Academy 
Linkedin Sprint - set up and running in 6 weeks.  

Since I started the Digital Recruiter in October of 2021, I've generated millions of impressions from LinkedIn content & averaged 20-30 inbound calls per month. Not once have I gone viral because it's not necessary to generate revenue.

We've helped 100's of recruiters on becoming micro influencers to help them generate outbound & inbound leads with better quality clients & candidates.

“Working with Clark and his coaches has been a game changer! As a business owner, the most important piece was finding someone with industry experience. There are many other marketing/digital marketing partners; but no one knows the RECRUITMENT industry better.” - Lindsay Lambert, Managing Member @ Permanent Staffing Solutions

"Clark and his team revolutionized the way I think about candidate/ client acquisition! Their approach is totally different from anything I had heard before, and was incredibly effective for me (especially on the client end). I signed 3 clients within the first 3 weeks of being in this program.

They do a great job of taking a theory about effective BD and translating it into a process that is easy to understand and implement." - Samantha Reader, Founder @ Mountain Top Recruiting

“Since we've started this program (4 months) we've increased our revenues by $88,000 between 4 separate placements that we could directly attribute to the sales strategies that we learned during The Digital Recruiter.” Nick Loehr, Co-Founder/ CEO @ JL Recruitment Group

We help consultative (not transactional) recruiters and consultants get back their time and stop chasing hiring managers.

Ever said "If they only knew we were different, they would work with us!"

Good news, you don't need expensive or complicated tech to make that the case in the digital age. 

You just need a better approach.

One where you aren't acting like a transactional recruiter and begging for business right away. 

One where you feel you can disqualify and WALK AWAY from bad potential clients.

You need to utilize your leverage.

What turned you into a top biller or firm? You made more calls, more placements, overcame more losses and now you’re still standing.

In all that time, you never learned marketing. Why would you? You were too busy recruiting.

However, now there’s way more competition. Young kids building AI and tech focused agencies. 

But what happens when they get on the phone? They aren’t savvy.

They don’t know how to run a meeting like you did.

So how do you compete with them. You buy the tech, but you or your team don’t use it correctly. 

What you need is a way to stand out.

That’s where we come in. We help you shorten your sales cycles and create an abundance of warmed up calls with your ideal market.

Showing you how to authentically stand out from the recruiting crowd and position YOU as the recruiting authority you are and that your market needs.

No more pointless cold calls & emails.
No more thoughtless AI-generated content that is hurting your brand.
No more wasting money on a tech stack that just sits there. 

Hiring managers and candidates want to know that you're different.

Don't tell them. Show them. 

We've worked with 100s of recruiters gain millions and millions of impressions from their target market and turn that into more quality meetings through strategic automation and content led outbound.

The most rewarding part of the business in 2025 for me?

Finally accomplishing something that always seemed out of reach.

Building a team. 

Mady Willcox started it. Pure tenacity, focus and intelligence to help put my brain to paper and delegate accordingly. 

Then she helped find, hire and train the incredible Li'l Kaye Salvatierra who has been an absolute game changer.

Riley Darfus leveled up BIG time. Podcast production, video clips, creating logos and banners and other designs, creating text posts. We're now 110 podcast episodes produced and expanding that service to clients.

Ross Mayfield joined up officially and went full tilt with DR after 4 years of working together and him supporting our community. 

Now he runs the Digital Recruiter Academy + being our "LinkedIn Coordinator" with his vast experiences writing 1000s of posts and messages.

Keely Flood supporting on the sales coaching side for our clients and introducing people to Digital Recruiter. 

Cristina Rexach helping me figure this out for a couple of years.

This Thanksgiving, I am grateful to have a weekend where I can decompress, recharge, and know that everyone is rowing the boat in the same direction.

...and by decompress I mean wrangling in our 2.5 and 9 month old boys who like to moonlight as hyenas. 

Grateful to have dream clients. Seriously, it's unmatched with the commitment level people bring to the table to make this work. 

This industry is not easy, but it can be extremely rewarding. 

Looking back on the days where I had no family, no money to my name due to my own failures, and a fairly bleak reality, I'll never take a second of this current setup for granted.

My hope for you is you get to enjoy some good food, some football, most importantly some family. 

Cheers 🥂

Posting content on LinkedIn? Here's a crucial mistake to avoid…

👇

Don't post for other recruiters. Post to your next ideal client.

Here’s how recruiters get off track with content,,,

-You start posting
-You connect with other recruiters
-Your feed becomes recruiter-heavy
-You start writing for them instead of your market

But your goal isn’t to impress peers.

It’s to connect with hiring managers, the ones who pay the invoices.

So here’s the move:

-Build your ecosystem with people in your market
-Ignore the feed, watch your analytics instead
-Keep posting for your buyers (yes, even if they’re lurkers)
-Unfollow anything that throws you off track

Remember, comparison is the thief of joy.

You’re not here to win likes, you’re here to build trust and win more quality business.

That’s the game.

The name of the game on this one was nothing flashy…

Consistency.

Start showing up on LinkedIn.

Keep showing up.

Don’t stress about likes. 

Focus on the pain points in the market, 

Just keep it going.

The right people notice if you give them quality content consistently.

graphical user interface, text, application, chat or text message

"I've gained 1000 new followers already (under 2 weeks)...I am so all in on this approach" This stopped me in my tracks yesterday in our Digital Recruiter Academy Call. 

Again, this recruiter has been in the program for less than 2 weeks.

And you know likes and followers aren't the main thing we care about. 

BUT - to generate that type of buzz around content that resonates with your ICP.

And have them follow you at that level?

Huge before and after.

Now she has a flood of potential clients and candidates that know who she is. 

She's on the radar.

She just has to stay with it. 

It's all about the "small wins" as my friend Keely Flood says. 

Those build up to the big ones. 

Add in the first placement she locked up as a new agency owner (all her work, this was pre Digital Recruiter). 

And she's off and running with some fantastic momentum.

Who says the holiday season needs to slow down?

Thanks to my good friend Benjamin Mena for inviting me yet again to speak at his epic summits. 

It's free and the best in the game. Make sure to sign up to get your 2026 off to the right start.

As everyone is going more towards "CHECK OUT MY AI WORKSHOP BOOTCAMP, WE ARE THE EXPERT"

...we've noticed what works with Digital Recruiters...

Staying consistent.

Finding areas to be more human. Knowing where people are relying on AI, so where can we leverage that to our advantage.

-Knowing how to have authentic conversations
-Seeking to understand your market first.
-Quality content that resonates
-Finding the line of always using automation, but not being spammy
-Ways to incorporate AI to speed up your workflow, but not ruin your brand

This is how you get GREAT clients (remember, clients aren't clients until they pay an invoice, looking at you contingent signed paper work warriors). 

That's the goal right? 

No awkward calls booked from a lead gen company. 

No being desperate to work on any calls.

Do outreach and content the right away, and watch your BD worries melt away in 2026.

3 exclusive director roles placed from his first post. 

This is what can happen when experience, successful recruiters take their talents to the LinkedIn feed. 

Sharing their authentic voice, stories and perspective. 

Will everyone get an exclusive client from their first post? 

No, but every successful recruiter can get clients from LinkedIn. 

Might be post 1

Post 10

Post 50.

All you need is this

1) understanding that content can work for you  

2) understanding of copy writing and marketing principles 

3) how to capture your voice and create content that resonates with your ideal market 

4) how to follow up when you have a digital presence (it’s different than cold outreach) 

5) a flywheel that connects with your ideal market daily 

6) Consistency 

2-6 is the reasons people work with us. Because you are a great recruiter and sales people. 

Not necessarily to be a marketer.  

So once you believe 1), what are you waiting for?

I was reminded today of one of my favorite things about retained search firms getting into cold outreach. 

"Cold email didn't work"

"LinkedIn automation didn't work"

Let me guess.

You are used to building relationships, getting referrals, gaining trust, etc before getting clients right?

Yes.

And so now, you're reaching out to people that don't know you at all, and wondering why pitching yourself in 3-5 messages about how you recruit in a special manner and saying it doesn't work?

Yes.

So the thing that gets you these great clients and fees upfront, you're not replicating any bit of that to people that don't know you.

You have zero leverage.
You have zero authority outside of the people that know you offline.

But now, you're competing with ALL the other recruiting agencies your market comes into contact with.

There is no shield and status.

...Until you earn it.

And that's done with marketing + strategic digital network building.

There's a reason we aren't "lead gen"

Because lead gen approach is useless in an industry where relationships are paramount.

And people are the product. And people are volatile.

Look for ways to reduce that friction. To get people to buy into you.

No, they won't do it because you say you're the best.

You have to 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘸 them why you're the best.

And do that over and over again.

Thank you to everyone who extended their Cyber Monday deal for my own benefit, just in case I missed out!

Ashley Woods didn’t discover recruiting.

Someone recruited her into it but she’s the one who chose to master it.

She learned to ask better questions, study the market, sit in coding meetups just to pick up keywords, and earn credibility by speaking the language of the people she served.

Then she hit a wall.

The workload was heavy, the hours were brutal, and even after winning big, she realized she’d built a career on urgency, 80–100 hour weeks, and no time for the things she actually loved.

So, she stepped away and then rebuilt everything.

She left recruiting for tech sales, realized she missed the impact of this industry, and when she came back through, she rebuilt her entire operating system: time audits, energy audits, automation, partnerships, and systems that pulled her out of reactive work and into high-value, intentional work.

That structure eventually became Time Rich Recruiter, where she now teaches recruiters how to buy back their time, protect their energy, and still deliver real results without burning themselves out.

Her message is simple:
You can be a high performer without sacrificing your entire life to do it.

"I KNOW that post was about me" 

Words from a prospective call last week. The thing is...

It wasn't our first call.

That was back in September.

Right after he gets swamped with searches. 

Ends up closing a couple hundred thousand and change on fees.

Time well spent right?

Yes, but...

In that time he could have had his biz dev engine built by our team. 

And as he is wrapping up the latest big wave.

The engine would have kept that momentum going.

Not to mention it would help him find a few of these candidates MUCH faster and freed up crucial time for him.

All good though. I get why agency owners think they can wait to install a BD engine.

Here's what to remember

1) You always get more when you have enough. When you're chasing is when things get way harder.

2) If you get swamped with leads...that's when you can actually walk away from business and/or raise fees or have the confidence to push more retained searches. 

AKA, nothing bad happens when you have an expert install and run a true BD engine.

That makes you look good, daily, in front of your market. 

(Yes, he joined and we're getting after it starting this week)

Thank you Jon Davis for inviting me down to #talentnetlive

Craig Fisher, great job creating an action packed event in one day. Tons of collaboration and passionate conversations. 

End of the day? Everyone's trying to figure out the balance of automation, AI and where humans step in. 

For my agency recruiter friends...if you can slow down, meet managers and companies where THEY are at...

You're going to do just fine with business development.

And if you use certain types of automation, forget about it. All of them have too much red tape to even figure that piece out.

Here's the thing with content.

Specifically, content that sells. 

The bests posts are never what you think. 

It's not the selfies.

It's not the "here's a graphic about how much we care." 

It's not the "National hug a puppy day." 

Not that any of those things are bad. (OK, maybe selfies are). 

It's none of them are RELEVANT. 

Relevant to a business pain point. Let alone a hiring one. 

Think through why clients pay you fees. 

Those nuances.

Why your best client went with you. And kept giving you roles.

While another great client went with you for a different reason.

Think of their buying journey. That' where the content is.

Can't think of your customer's buying journey?

Then I can nearly guarantee you that's where you're having issues with BD and marketing.

Know your customer, then you can sell to them.

...without "selling"

"What's your MPC approach?"

A client asked me that last week.

My answer? It depends.

Most placeable candidate plays can definitely work.

I used them all the time at Aerotek last decade.

You introduce a hyper-specific person for a hyper-specific role.

It opens a door. But then comes the dance.

Is this person actually in process?

Is the profile even real?

Or is this just another recycled script agencies are running?

Because nowadays, managers are getting bombarded with MPC's. 

So now, prospects start to doubt.

Not just the candidate.

The whole approach.

Not to mention the overthinking I see take place when crafting this candidate.

Instead, I told my client to think of it this way.

He has deep market knowledge. He can talk shop. He spots hiring issues in seconds.

That’s what actually builds credibility.

He IS the MPC.

Him leaning into HIM being the most valuable partner, that can find THEIR mpc, whether he has them in network already or not.

That's the value.

If a company’s had a bad run with agencies, who do you think they trust?

The one chasing a candidate.

Or the one who sounds like they’ve already worked the job.

So a few messages and voice notes later.

He booked more quality meetings, with the right people...

People who are excited to work with HIM. 

Not the mythical, magical candidate. 

Happy hunting.

Funny how content works.

The clients, current and former, I also see on my feed?

Are all the ones DM-ing me wins week after week. 

Quality consistency always wins.

It's not just about "showing up." 

You have to give your audience time to build trust with you.

Now, just make sure you aren't relying on lazy AI content that no one is paying attention too...

Then you're just imploding your brand before you even have one...

The reason your content doesn't convert to business is extremely simple. 

Yet, most people can't help themselves. 

And even if they are consistent for a little bit, I usually see this fall off occur.

Your content is all about you.

And no one cares about you.

It's ok, no one cares about me either. 

And that should be extremely freeing for you. 

Your next 10 clients all have hiring issues.

Otherwise they wouldn't be clients.

So stop posting about you.

Start posting about them.

And the problems that each of those 10 clients have. 

Naturally, you'll talk about how you solve those problems.

They want the solution, you're just the middle man to get to that result.

So remember...

You're the middle man or woman to the solution...not the subject.

Best practices for running automation and content on holiday weeks.
after doing this for nearly 6 years. 

1. Keep running campaigns. Turn it off on the holiday day. That's when no one believes you're working. But run it the days outside of that.
2. It's a great to test new audiences. 
3. Don't assume people aren't on here. Sometimes it's the one time they get a break, they engage with family for a bit, then what? On their phone. 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘪𝘴 𝘦𝘴𝘱𝘦𝘤𝘪𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘢 𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵 𝘸𝘦𝘦𝘬 𝘵𝘰 𝘧𝘪𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘰𝘴𝘦 𝘤𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘢𝘵𝘦𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘳𝘦𝘯'𝘵 𝘢𝘭𝘸𝘢𝘺𝘴 𝘢𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘷𝘦.

70% of linkedin users in 2025 are on mobile according to my chat gpt research. Keep that in mind. 

^^ also a good note as to what I space out posts the way I do. It's easier to read.

Yes, your impressions will go down most likely with content. Share the gratitude post, etc. 

But again, even 100, 500 or 1k impressions by your ideal prospect, could turn into a lead.

Just because other people take their gas completely off the pedal, doesn't mean you need too.

With 1-2 hours of work you can still be prospecting and marketing, and still getting fat on turkey, stuffing and pie. 

🦃

When you have your top of funnel BD going non stop, it feels like "Me, Myself & Irene"

You never know which personality you'll get on a given interaction.

Current client - "Hey! I have a referral for you" and proceeds to tell them all about the great work you do.

New connection - "Hey, great to connect, seeing your stuff, I'd love to learn more" 

New connection - "I'm not interested in services" - yet you never pitched services

Prospect - "Yes! Let's meet up for coffee. I love meeting up around this time of year and catching up with folks."

Current Client - "How do we level up and do more work together this year"

25 ish unread messages to get back to in the inbox today 

150 other people I reached out to this week - *Crickets

What's the lesson in all this?

Have a system.

Dial in your approach.

Never stop.

Go with the flow. 

Don't bend your principles for anyone.

The name of the content game. 

It's not enough to just post now. 

With the introduction of AI, there's more of it...and will continue to be more of it.

So there needs to be posts like this.

Posts taht arent prefect and have typeos. 

More importantly, posts that have your voice.

Now, you can "save money" and just paste whatever AI junk you come up with it.

Or you can treat content marketing like the revenue engine it should be for you. 

And that's 3-4x posts per week.

In your voice.

That resonate with your market.

While you're connecting with your market. Daily

No weeks off. 

Stop chasing. Free up your time. 

But, that doesn't work if you try to shortcut it.

Or don't invest in the key parts of your business.

It's not more people you need. People you have to manage and train.

It's optimizing YOU. 

Do that and watch the need for cold emails or calls go away.

All outreach turns warm.

That's why we've pivoted to help high performing recruiters with the tough part of all this.

Consistently creating.
Consistently having campaigns running
Consistently tracking leads. 

We do that for you, so you can focus on closing.

Marcus Quigley never dreamed of being a recruiter and as he puts it, nobody does.

He was in lending, trying to sell products he didn’t believe in, until a mentor pulled him into recruiting and he realized he actually loved the work, helping people, solving problems, building relationships.

He spent five years running a full desk, learning everything the hard way.

Then he went out on his own… and got crushed.

Wrong timing.

No process.

Spray-and-pray outreach.

Down to his last $4–5k, he even took a loan against his 401(k) just to take desperation out of the room but once he slowed down and rebuilt things the right way, everything changed.

He popped six placements in a month. And after doing just one deal last November, he’s already passed 20 this year.

He found his lane in legal recruiting, direct, decisive, no gray area, exactly how he works.

He vets deeply, tells the truth even when it costs him money, and walks away from clients who don’t respect the process.

And behind all of that is something he shared openly: he recently lost his dad.

After losing his dad, Marcus began showing up with a different level of purpose, in his life, his relationships, and his business.

It’s why he leads with integrity, why he chooses kindness, and why he does the right thing even when it’s hard.

His message is simple: You don’t need ego or urgency to win, just honesty, consistency, and doing the right thing for the long term.

Support your homies.

👆 This is belief and practice that put at the top of my list for how to do things right. And its not just about business, but how to foster real, deep, meaningful relationships.

Danielle Farage is many things to me: a work friend, a colleague, a collaborator and a co-host on the Purple Acorn HR Morning Show.

Over the past couple of years we have formed a bond, a "frentorship" as she calls it. And it works both ways! I learn SO much from her as far as creativity, content creation, Gen-Z $hit so I can communicate with my daughter.

But most importantly, the ability for me to be open minded about things I do not know about. (see: "Gen-Z $hit above). 😆

I lovingly call her "Kid-Sis" as she is my go-to conference running buddy. So when she announced that she was kicking off her latest (and amazing) project, The Underrated Economy, I had to go support her.

And, I HIGHLY urge you to check it out and learn more.

👉 The job market is facing a massive disconnect: essential industries like industrials, construction, and the trades sectors that keep our economy runninghave millions of unfilled roles and are generating unprecedented wealth, yet struggle to attract young talent. 

Meanwhile, millions of college grads are drowning in debt, unemployed or underemployed, and uncertain about their future as AI rapidly erodes entry-level white-collar paths they were told to chase. 

With Gen Alpha dreaming of becoming YouTubers, the gap between real opportunity and perceived prestige has never been wider, leaving us to question what happens next.

The future is now. Stay connected to it our become extinct!

Thank you Danielle for being my gateway to the present & future and being an incredible friend.

Oh you want some video? Here ya go!!!

Four leaders. One festival. Zero fluff.

Expect pragmatic tactics, spicy hot takes, and real stories from leaders actually doing the work.

I am excited to share the second episode in our special series recorded live at RecFest USA 2025 in Nashville, featuring:

🌟 Joey Lee (Head of TA, Panda Restaurant Group) on scaling 3,000+ store roles and “boots-on-the-ground” recruiting.

🌟 Rachel Allen, SPHR (Head of TA, 7-Eleven) on automating 95% of store hiring with AI while keeping interviews human.

🌟 Brandon Davis (Head of TA, Champions Group) on trades recruiting, sourcing discipline, and quality of submission.

🌟 Greg Russell (VP TA, CoverGenius) on mindset, feedback at scale, and “signal over noise” hiring. 

👆 This is the good stuff, folks, from the real practitioners, doing the work!

What You’ll Learn: ↴

✅ How high-volume brands (Panda, 7-Eleven) actually scale hourly hiring
✅ Why quality of submission may beat quality of hire as a TA metric
✅ Where AI belongs (and doesn’t) in frontline recruiting workflows
✅ How to coach recruiters on feedback, mindset, and “signal over noise”
✅ Tactics for trades recruiting: schools, military, word-of-mouth, and sourcing discipline
