100% No Fee, Happiness Guarantee
The main objection we regularly come across when speaking to clients tends to be:
How do I know you will generate the right quality / quantity of candidates? It seems like a big risk paying a commitment fee up front, when we are used to only paying when the successful candidate starts.
Historically, under SDW & like so many others we have operated on a “no placement, no fee” model, which means we only get paid when we successfully place a candidate.
This model places all the risk on the recruiter, who may invest hours of work for a potential hire that never materialises, not to mention job board advertising & marketing costs. As a result, agencies are forced to charge higher fees at the end of the process to offset the costs of failed placements. The reality is that recruitment is a high-risk, high-reward business, and the fees reflect that unpredictability.
On average an agency will fill 1 out of 5 jobs they work on, so basically they get paid for Monday and work the rest of the week for free.
So, the one paying client, gets charged more to cover the other 4 jobs worked on, that the agency is not getting paid a penny for.
Our mission is 'to make recruitment better for everyone...' so, we charge a commitment fee upfront, back by a guarantee, so you pay a fair price, for a quality service and everyone is invested in the process & outcome.
So, we stand behind our recruitment solutions with a 100% No Fee, Happiness Guarantee. Here’s how it works:
Fixed Milestone Payments on Success: Whether you choose our Full Mission Control or one of our direct hiring solutions, our fee structure is completely transparent and based on milestone success, fully aligned with the progress of the recruitment journey & driving long-term retention. The only payment we ask for at the start is our commitment fee, which is covered by this guarantee.
Guaranteed Satisfaction: After paying your commitment fee, if you feel that your chosen solution has meet your expectations, we’ll work with you to solve this. If you’re still not satisfied, you can choose to forgo the fee entirely. Your satisfaction is our top priority.
Fair & Realistic Expectations: While our 100% No Fee, Happiness Guarantee reflects our commitment to finding the best talent available for your requirement, it’s important to approach recruitment with realistic expectations. Finding the perfect candidate both in terms of experience & team fit can be tough. Candidates occasionally pull-out, go to ground and accept counteroffers. Recruitment is not an exact science - human interactions and decisions are highly variable and influenced by emotions, preferences, and circumstances
We are confident that with all of our solutions, we can deliver results, introducing the best candidates, backed with a great service, always being open, honest & transparent throughout.
So, we ask you to please be mindful that we incur a lot of initial costs upfront, from job board marketing, time researching & approaching candidates, interviewing & presenting. This all comes at a cost to the business. We just ask you to be fair to us, and we will ensure you feel you get good value from us, everytime.
14 Day Payment Terms: We listened, most companies are unable to make immediate payments on engagement, so we are happy to offer 14 days payment terms on presentation of our invoice. This also give you time to gauge the responses, get to know us a bit better and see how we work, prior to settling our commitment fee.
Hopefully we have eliminated your main concerns, and you are ready to get stated…
