Is your GTM search actually working?

Six things we hear every week

  • You’re getting candidates. None you’d actually hire.

    Volume, not quality

  • You know exactly who you want. They just won’t engage.

    Hard-to-reach talent

  • Everyone looks good on paper. You can’t tell who’s actually good.

    CV ≠ performance

  • Your agency is sending candidates. You’re still doing all the qualifying.

    What are you paying them for?

  • You’re entering a new market and don’t know who the best people are.

    No market map

  • You’re hiring a role your team has never hired before.

    No internal benchmark
