For Executive Search firms

2-4 companies with an open C-level role, ready to work with a search firm. In 90 days.

Most search firms wait for the next referral. Meanwhile, companies open CEO, CFO and CTO roles every week without calling anyone. We find those openings, reach the person who owns the hire, and confirm they want a search partner, before the lead ever reaches your inbox.

The offer

A warm lead has to pass three checks

  1. An open C-level role. CEO, CFO, COO, CTO, CMO, CHRO, or another seat that reports to the CEO or the board.

  2. A real decision maker. The CEO, board chair, investor or CHRO who owns the hire, not a junior contact.

  3. Willing to use a search firm. They have told us they are open to a conversation with you about filling it.

If it fails any of the three, it does not count toward your 2-4.

Why business development stalls

Three reasons great search firms still wait on referrals

01

No time

Your partners are busy running searches. Business development happens in the gaps, which means it barely happens.
02

No clear system

You know C-level roles open every week. You don't have a way to spot them before another firm does.
03

Tools nobody uses

You pay for LinkedIn Recruiter, a CRM and a data tool. Your team still does research by hand.
How we find leads

Six steps between an open C-level seat and your next mandate

Openings

C-level opening tracking

We watch job posts, executive departures, interim appointments, funding rounds and board changes to spot C-level seats as they open.
Fit

Fit filter

Only companies in your sectors, at the size and pay level you place, make the list. No CEO searches you would turn down.
Sourcing

Decision-maker sourcing

The CEO, board chair, lead investor or CHRO who owns the hire, with a verified email and a reason to talk.
Infrastructure

Inbox-ready email infrastructure

Separate sending domains, warmed up and monitored, so outreach lands in the inbox and your firm's main domain stays safe.
Outreach

Outreach about their open seat

Every message names the role they are trying to fill and your record in that seat. One clear question: would a search partner help?
Handoff

Qualified handoff

We confirm the role is open and they are willing to work with a search firm. Then the lead goes into your CRM with the full context.
