Almost three years into building Scout, we're pivoting. Scout started as a self-serve outreach platform. Find contact info, build campaigns, send personalized outreach, the whole nine yards. Anyone could use it. We had…

Fun fact: Scout has grown 10x since the beginning of 2024! We just had back-to-back record-breaking months of growth. As with any startup we've hit some snags along the way, so wanted to share both the good & the bad:…

Recruiting agencies will tell me their entire company was built on MPC campaigns, and then tell me they hardly run them anymore. Crazy, but understandable once you think about it. Reality is, the best time to run an MP…

10.8% is our average reply rate when advertising sales candidates at Scout. My thoughts on why these campaigns crush: 1. Hiring salespeople is a growth signal. If a company is adding sellers, they're doing well and hav…

I'm giving away our targeting & messaging strategy that generates 5-15% reply rates for recruiting agencies. We've been doing this for months, and the sample size is large (tens of thousands of messages sent). Step 1:…

I'm feeling the recruiting pain right now. I posted a job ad for Scout last week and received one THOUSAND applications in 48 hours. I still haven't even gone through 10% of them. The craziest part? Only ONE person r…
