Most recruitment agencies waste £50+ per cold call meeting. Anthony Lewis found a better way to scale from startup to 50-person team.

Anthony's team made 1,500 cold calls for just 27 placements. That 1.8% conversion rate would panic most agency owners. Instead, he built a candidate experience system that turns rejections into revenue.

What You'll Learn:

  • How to build agency growth without expensive cold calling

  • Business development strategies that actually work

  • How 86% candidate satisfaction became his competitive advantage

  • Agency scaling secrets from startup to 50 employees

  • Why treating candidates like future clients changes everything

Key Insights:

  • 9:39 Why purpose prevents fee-chasing behavior

  • 24:53 What "psychological safety" means for performance

  • 35:30 Why individual KPIs beat generic targets

  • 45:43 The candidate feedback system that drives growth

  • 50:26 How the MD personally calls every unhappy candidate
