You can earn a lot of money in Recruitment, but it’s what you do with that money which determines whether you’ll become wealthy or not.
In this week’s episode of ‘Renegade Recruiter Unleashed’ podcast, I talk to Damion Lupo about how to take control of your money and financial future by taking the money you earn as a Recruitment or Search Business Owners and reinvesting it to build real wealth.
Damian first business at age 11! Now he is the owner of an 8 figure real estate empire, multiple black belter, and sought after financial consultant for high profile private clients.
Over the last quarter century, Damion has started and owned more than 30 different companies including an insurance agency, a precious metals firm, a venture capital company, a financial consulting firm, and more than a dozen real estate investment and development companies. He built a 5-million-dollar Net Worth in his 20's, lost it, and has almost completely rebuilt his wealth in the last 12 months!
During this interview, he’ll be sharing the lessons he learned along the way and the things he wishes someone had told him before he got started!
Here’s just a fraction of what you’ll be getting…
• Find out why your Recruitment or Search Business won't make you wealthy (unless you combine it with one thing)
• How to turn your business profits into long-term wealth to secure your financial future
• Hear about Damion’s near death experience while skydiving and what it taught him about himself
• Why you should reject the scarcity mindset your parents taught you if you want to create financial freedom
• Discover how not listening to his mentors caused Damion to fail and lose millions in business revenue

“Entrepreneurs must know that businesses fail because they don’t get attention. If you want to succeed and grow your business, your sales revenue and your brand, you must get attention.” – Grant Cardone
I read that quote a few months ago, and it stuck with me…. It’s something I think ALL Recruitment and Search Firm Owners need to understand.
With very few exceptions, no matter what sector you work in. There are businesses out there right now who have an urgent need for your services. Even when the market is quiet, there is always someone with a need.
The problem is, they will NEVER buy from you or your firm!
And it’s not because you’re too expensive,
it’s not because they think your competitors have a better service,
It’s not even because they don’t like you or the way you do things….
It’s because they don’t even know you exist! Pure and simple.
You’re obscure!
And Businesses DIE in obscurity!
In this week's episode of the 'Renegade Recruiter Unleashed' podcast, we talk about how obscurity is killing your Recruitment or Search business, stopping clients from ever buying from you and holding you back from ever reaching your full potential … And most importantly we talk about how to beat it!

Show Notes:
[3:14]
Would you spend thousands of your local currency with somebody that you’ve never heard of?
[4:51]
The reason they’re not buying from you is because they don’t know you exist!
[6:08]
You can be the best recruiter in the world if your clients have never heard of you, you’re not gonna get the business.
[6:51]
If you don’t get the attention, quite frankly you will just disappear.
[7:10]
Money follows attention.
[8:18]
Whatever you do your gonna piss somebody off!
[14:04]
You want to get to the point where your followers are willing to jump through hoops just to work with you
[14:13]
You need to get absolutely crystal clear who your ideal client is.
[14:36]
You can’t be all things to all people.
[19:28]
What’s stopping you from earning the money that you want to earn is that you're obscure. It’s not how good you are at what you’re doing its how well you’re known at what you’re doing.
[19:59]
Your ultimate goal should be that everyone in your industry at least knows who you are and what you stand for.
