One of the challenges that exist with staffing agency marketing is that staffing and recruiting agencies exist to serve two masters: the hiring manager of the firm they are filling the job order for and, of course, the candidate. When developing an inbound marketing strategy or content marketing program designed to generate new business for a staffing agency, it’s important to keep these two distinct target personas in mind with everything you do.

In an incredibly competitive industry, staffing firms are constantly vying to distinguish themselves from the competition. You need to not only offer value to your clients, but also provide superb customer service and long term results.

Traditionally, when the term “account based marketing” was being discussed as a new business tactic by staffing agencies, it referred to cold calling or telemarketing to 50 or a hundred companies that the agency wanted as customers because the prospect fit a profile that ranged from size to the types of staff that they might use.
If you happen to be at the right place at the right time when that ideal prospect has a need you can fill, then this can be a pretty effective tactic.
But it’s “old school.”
It requires you to pound the phones or flood the prospect with emails or mailed sales collateral, and frankly, it’s not a particularly customer friendly way to build a long term relationship.
Today, account based marketing is built on new approaches, thinking, and technology that are designed to build friendly, long term relationships that produce a win-win for both the staffing agency and the customer.

The lifeblood of any staffing agency or recruiting firm is acquiring new business while retaining current clients and referral relationships.
According to Staffing Industry Analysts, over the past 20 years, the staffing sector has more than doubled in size, reaching over $130B in gross revenues (in just the US). The American Staffing Association tells us that this growth is being served by about 20,000 staffing and recruiting companies—up from an estimated 14,000 in 2006—which all together operate around 39,000 offices.
Yet, with all of this growth and opportunity, industry surveys like that conducted for LinkedIn tell us that securing new clients is priority #1.
