Business development research for recruitment agencies
Finding the next firms to pitch is research that tends to land on the owner. Chancelry can set that up for your agency as one job, in your own email and systems.
The job
This is the job as we’d write it down with you. What counts as a firm worth pitching goes in the scope.
Examples of a single job. Not client results.
- Business development research. A weekly list of firms that match what you look for, with why each one made the list and where the details came from.
- Research. Background on a firm before you pitch it, or notes on a market you’re thinking of moving into. The system includes a specialist for research.
Start with one job
Name one job you’d take off your desk. We agree in writing what “working” means, and we aim to have it running within a week of agreeing it, in your own email and systems.
You name the job. Reply to our email or use the consultation form. We’ll tell you by the next evening whether it fits.
We agree it in writing. A one-page scope: the job, the accounts it touches, and what “working” looks like.
Aiming for a week. We aim to have it running within a week of agreeing the scope, set up on your own accounts over a screen share you start.
Handover. A 45-minute screen share, then one round of changes within 14 days.
If it earns its keep, it grows. The same set-up can take on more of the firm, up to the full operator.
Examples of a single job. Not client results.
- Candidates who’ve gone quiet. A list each morning of candidates who haven’t replied in the time you set, with a chaser drafted for each. You decide in the scope whether it sends or waits for you.
- Business development research. A weekly list of firms that match what you look for, with why each one made the list and where the details came from.
- Replies you’d otherwise miss. When a candidate or client replies, you get a message on your phone saying who it was, and any follow-up to them stops.
What you’ll need
- The accounts the job runs on, in your own name and paid for by you.
- A paid Claude plan, if the job uses Claude.
- If a computer is involved: administrator access, and a backup you’ve checked can be restored.
- One person who can approve the scope and sign off at handover.
- Nothing technical to learn. You start a screen share and we do the set-up.
A working session, replayed
The demo is a replay of real working sessions on our own businesses, with names changed. It isn’t recruitment work. It’s the same design, on different jobs.
