Hey community creators! Welcome to the 86 of you who joined this week. If someone sent you this post, join the 3,700 people learning how to build community businesses. Once in a while, I like to give all of you a look “behind-the-scenes” and open up my life and business to all of you.
I'm in awe of the impact the recommendations have had on your newsletter numbers 🙌. Just to get back to you on your question about your collective. I was just wondering, as Notion, Figma etc etc are getting overwhelmed with applicants, whether you could provide a bit of a gatekeeper service for the bigger fish looking to hire? When I worked with headhunters on my previous gig the main complaint from them was that they didn't want to be inundated with applications. That surely is a big selling point for people who work with you? The only thing is they might want to feel they are not being restricted to just your 200 candidates. This might fill you with dread but I was just thinking could you handle the process to shortlist? Let the applications come to you and you supply a shortlist of 4 or 5? You probably arent looking for yet more candidates on your books but I know a lot of orgs who would pay for that kind of support! Just a thought anyway.
Awesome transparency, brotha!
