So very excited (and proud) of Pillar's newest feature, Candidate Selection, that ensures hiring teams have all the critical data at their finger tips to build the best teams. Check it out below!

💡The right questions lead to smarter decisions. Budgeting and forecasting isn’t just about plugging in numbers—it’s about digging into the details that shape the future. And it all starts with asking the right questions. When The Network Firmworks with clients, especially those without a solid financial framework, they don’t settle for blanket assumptions like the classic “whack it up 5%” approach. Instead, Wesley Bartonand his team dig deeper: ▪️Are you planning to hire? ▪️What types of roles are you adding, and when? ▪️What costs or investments are coming down the line? Here’s an example: A startup budgets $200,000 in recurring expenses with a simple 5% increase for the next year. But after a few conversations, it turns out they’re hiring an engineer at $300,000—a key expense that would have been completely missed. By layering in scenario planning and asking targeted questions, The Network Firm builds forecasts that reflect real plans, not just educated guesses. It’s this thoughtful, tailored approach that leads to better decisions and stronger outcomes for clients. 🎯 #Forecasting #Scenarioplanning #Advisory

Make yourself 'exitable' as a founder... - systemise everything, develop a full 'operating system and manual' - hire for 'responsibility' not just 'activity'- nurture a 2nd tier management team - focus on net profit (you don't need £10m ebit to do a life changing deal—£250k+ will get many a good 7figure+ valuation - implement a predictable sales and marketing engine - keep on top of reporting/financials - treat customers and staff like gold (your biz is worth nothing without them) - make yourself 'operationally redundant'

From Tools to Teammates: A Quick Take on Technology We often think of technology as just tools we use, but today it’s becoming something deeper—almost like our teammates. Think about it: our phones don’t just show us the weather; they remind us when to exercise, guide our career choices, and even shape our friendships. As technology evolves, it’s not just changing what we do; it’s changing who we are. If we recognize it as a partner rather than a passive object, we can shape its growth responsibly. After all, the real question is not what technology can do, but how we choose to live alongside it.

We’re live! Notice anything different about us? 😉 After weeks of refining, revising - and a fair amount of coffee - we’re delighted (and honestly, relieved) to share that our new website is officially up and running. Turns out, it was a much bigger task than I expected! Small business life sure ain't for the faint of heart... Can’t I just stick to hiring and helping others do the same, please? (That’s the part I actually enjoy). But this new site is more than a fresh design - it’s a reflection of how Louise and I have evolved: ✅ Sharpening our focus on core energy markets & disciplines ✅ Continuously improving how we deliver value ✅ Staying ahead of the curve to maintain a 98% placement success rate - and a 100% retention rate for all appointments made over the past 12 months If you're curious about how we’ve achieved these results, let’s connect - I’d be happy to share actionable insights for your own strategy where I can. A huge thank you to Demz Digital and the talented Jason and team for their hard work (and for putting up with me changing my mind a gazillion times!) Check out site here 🌐connectenergytalent.com and feel free to drop me a message any time if you’d like to chat about how we can help - or even just to swap small-business war stories, ha!😅 #LeadershipHiring #HiringStrategy #ScalingTeams #NewWebsite #ConnectEnergyTalent

Always plan with the end in mind -

If you’re considering partnering with an external IT services provider, the process of finding the right match could be challenging. You are probably wondering: - Will they understand my needs?  - Is there a way to ensure I will get what I need? Even if they can do both, the question that probably troubles you is how will this new group of external people integrate with your in-house teams and cooperate smoothly? At Enlight Engineering we are seasoned professionals at team integration. Read more here: https://lnkd.in/eG7iBWuf #teamintegration #nearshoring #softwareengineering
