Points of Difference

WE ARE AN INDUSTRY SPECIFIC FIRM
Why this is an advantage to you:
  • Our sole focus is multi-channel retail companies and the brands/products that sustain them
    • Our consultants possess strong industry backgrounds and knowledge of and access to the stellar people and organizations
    • As a recognized industry authority, we provide our clients with deep knowledge of industry practices and trend
  • Our senior consultants OWN the entire search process from start to finish (initial calls, interviewing, reference checking, negotiating the offer and closing the deal)… They are your contact
  • Our “Off Limits” list is a competitive advantage as we prefer to have deep, long term relationships with fewer clients
WE OPERATE WITH FOCUS AND TENACITY
Why this is an advantage to you:
  • We go beyond the easily identified candidates to continuously unearth the hidden stellar candidates
  • We track executives through their careers and that is reflected in our extensive database. This updated information allows us to get to the right people more quickly
  • We are probing and thorough when interviewing and referencing (just ask the candidates)
  • We consistently enjoy a high completion rate while larger firms often struggle with theirs
  • We consistently complete searches in a timely manner
WE USE STRAIGHT TALK
Why this is an advantage to you:
  • Because of our conscientious approach and industry credibility, candidates and sources take our calls and listen to what we say
  • Candidates place a high value in our opinion when discussing or accepting positions
  • We are a reflection of the clients we represent and are your ambassadors to the candidate community
  • We recognize that the most successful long term placements are those that consider and balance the needs and desires of both the client and candidate
