Nurturing Candidates In Niche Markets
Doug Razzano / June 1, 2021

Competition for top talent is fierce, especially for early-stage vendors attempting to attract the best revenue producers into an unknown vendor.
As seventy-nine percent (79%*) of all global working professionals are passive. Every Vice President we speak with believes that the best Quota-carrying talent actively responds when they need them.
Sadly, only 21 percent of all (cross-industries) candidates are open to looking at new opportunities. Even fewer successful quota-carrying candidates are qualified or looking with a proven track record of success in early-stage SaaS vendors.
Why Most Fail Recruiting Top Talent
The number one reason most SaaS vendors fail in hiring the best of the best candidates is straightforward. Lack of planning and not having a talent partner nurturing candidates months before you are ready to recruit them.
