The Honest Salesperson

I have a decade of experience in new client acquisition sales, helping generate over 10 million in revenue within the recruitment industry.

Over the 10 year period, I have broken into over 100 new accounts, and trained over 40 other individuals to do the same. I am intimately familiar with the challenges and hurdles faced when building a book of business, acquiring new clients, and implementing a sales system that can be scaled as your company scales.

I bring that experience to a small number of early stage, growth focused recruitment companies.

I partner with solo-operators and owners as an advisor and mentor assisting them in their growth phase.

I help them lay the foundation needed to grow, avoid expensive mistakes, help assemble world-class sales teams, and implement a sales system that can be replicated.

If you are a small business founder/owner within the recruitment space, and you're looking for a partner to help navigate your journey, I'd love to hear from you.

My area of expertise is in direct hire and contract agencies, with average placement fees $20,000 or more.

Founder & CEO at Raks Group LLC | Helping US Founders Find Right Talent | Follow me for tips to build & grow your team.

I’m not the loudest guy in the room.

But if you’re a founder trying to hire right, or a recruiter trying to build something tangible, you’ll probably say what most of my clients say:

“Ranjith gets it.”

I started my career as an accountant.

But it didn’t take long to realize I was more drawn to people than numbers—more curious about team building than balance sheets.

That shift led me to build Raks Group, an IT & recruiting firm I’ve been running since 2016, shaped by operator experience, founder empathy, and a no-nonsense approach.

𝐑𝐚𝐤𝐬 𝐠𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐩 𝐋𝐋𝐂 wasn’t built to be flashy. It was built to be effective. We help fast-moving teams hire with more clarity, stronger alignment, and long-term confidence.

From early-stage startups to scaling orgs, we’ve supported companies across the U.S. with end-to-end hiring, placing people who don’t just fit the job, but fit the mission.

Whether it’s the company’s first 10 hires or critical exec roles, we come in when the stakes are high and the margin for error is low.

But there’s another side to what I do.

When I started, I searched everywhere for a real roadmap to launch and scale a recruiting business.
All I found were recycled PDFs and noisy playbooks.

So I built the thing I wish existed.

𝐑𝐞𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐢𝐭 𝐄𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐞 — a free course + private community for recruiters who want to do this differently.

Not the flexers. Not the growth-hack crowd.

The ones who care about reputation more than revenue.

It took 4 months of deep work and creating systems, lessons, and frameworks to build this launchpad.

Now it’s helping recruiters take control, go independent, and build something that lasts.

And lately, we’ve gone deeper. At Raks, we’ve also started building software products that solve problems we’ve faced firsthand:

 → [SociaM8.com] — Your Social Media Management Partner! 
 → [ChatM8.ai] — AI chatbots and voice agents to handle customer conversations and daily tasks.
 → [Roar.ai] — Your screening partner that will help you hire the right person, automatically, quickly, and fairly. (Upcoming)

The mission is still the same: help great teams hire better.
Now we’re doing it through services, community, and product.

If you’re a founder who wants a recruiting partner, not a vendor—
Or a recruiter who’s finally ready to build your own thing—
You’re in the right place.
