Reverse Marketing Course

Designed to teach consultants how to use talent proactively to create demand, not wait for jobs to appear.

Overview

Reverse marketing is a strategic approach to position high quality candidates with key clients so the talent itself creates hiring conversations. This two session course covers how to identify the right talent, define a clear sweet spot candidate profile, position candidates without underselling or overselling and run structured client conversations that convert interest into qualified opportunities. The emphasis is on precision, relevance and controlled conversion rather than mass CV blasting.

What this course covers
