Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Executive Summary
Business Description

Recruiter Network Systems, Inc. is a new IT company serving the recruiting industry, located in
Toronto, Canada.
As a company our Mission is to make a powerful, positive impact for recruiters in North America.
Collectively, we live from the intention of transforming the recruitment industry.
Our mission is to make a powerful, positive impact and transform the recruitment industry, by
democratizing the recruitment marketplace through our product that integrates a technology
(Applicant Tracking Systems) and a proven revenue generating process (Split-Fee Revenue
Model) for independent recruiters and small recruitment firms.
What does this mean in practical terms?
In essence, we are creating a way for recruiters to communicate with each other that will enable
cooperation by leveraging already existing resources (a recruiter's database of unplaced
candidates) and linking it with other recruiter's databases such that the correct candidates can
be sourced and placed in companies that need the talent faster than was ever possible.
Imagine if a recruiter is at a client's office and has exhausted his own and his personal network's
resources to find a proper candidate for a job. At this point the recruiter has a few options,
namely continue the search on the internet, call more people, and keep on making new
connections with other recruiters. This process may work eventually, however it is time
consuming.
However, what if at this precise moment in time this problem disappeared? What if a recruiter
had access to key information to hundreds of other recruiter's databases of unplaced and
qualified candidates at the touch of a button on the internet or on a PDA application?
Through our research into the marketplace so far, small recruitment firms and independent
recruiters do not have the ability to compete with the larger, more established firms that have
larger networks.
What if we gave them an opportunity to level the playing field?
As a robust online and mobile platform it will allow independent recruiters to work collaboratively
and share half of the revenues of the total fee paid by the client (through a split fee revenue
model) on searches, while radically decreasing the amount of time it takes to source candidates.
Best of all, there will be no commission fees for the recruiters -- any recruiter will be able to
simply use the system by paying a standard membership fee. This will provide more money for
the recruiters and allow us to expand our network rapidly to other cities in North America.

Products and Services

Our product is a software product to be used by independent and small firm recruiters. This
software will combine a world class Applicant Tracking System (ATS) with a split-fee revenue
generation service. We saw the need for this product based upon years of research within the
recruitment industry. ATS has been around for awhile. Sharing commissions (split fee revenue)
amoungst recruiter is also not a new concept. The marriage between an fully equipped
ATS/split-fee revenue generation is a new concept not explored before within the recruitment
industry. We believe this product will assist independent and small firm recruiters to gross an
additional revenue stream which will be added on to a full recruiter production desk. In order to
develop this product, we will manage an offshore development team in the Philippines. For this

5
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
product / service , we plan on charging a monthly membership fee of $49.99 per month per user
in order to use our system once launch has been established.
We will incorporate this software product with various social media platforms (Facebook,
LinkedIN, Twitter) and local monthly networking meetings in order for recruiters to build long-
term relationships to increase existing revenue production.

The Market
We are an Information Technology company that services the recruitment industry. The
recruitment industry is a $9.2B industry in Canada. (According to Statistics Canada) Most of this
industry is comprised of independent recruiters and small recruitment firms. (There are very few
major players within the recruitment marketplace). RNS will cater towards independent
recruiters, small firms and start-up recruitment firms that want to eliminate competition and
encourage collobration between other recruiters. Within the first year of launch (Jan 2011), we
expect to start locally in the Toronto marketplace and grow to 100 recruiters using our system
before expanding to a new metropolitan city. We believe this will take approximately 12 to 16
months. The same model that will be used to grow in Toronto will also be replicated in
Montreal.
We plan on educating our customers of our product through social media, article writing in trade
magazines and networking sites. We plan on writing specific targeted articles on recruitment to
industry trade magazines (ACCESS) in order for recruiters to raise awareness with our product
and our brand. Utilizing exisiting social media recruitment sites (i.e. Recruitingblogs.com, ERE),
we plan on establishing a solid brand and product that will bring a value add to small and
independent recruitment firms.

Competition
We have investigated the competition. Currently, we believe that there is only one network
system that combines a full CRM service with a recruiter split fee network. We have found that
our competition has a minimal amount of recruiters using their system as they are new and
upcoming. (incorporated 2006). There are many Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) on the
market at this time. There are also many split fee revenue generation systems on the market
that allow recruiters to collaborate with each other to increase revenue production. We have not
found a suitable, world-class Applicant Tracking System that provides the recruiter with a split
fee revenue generation methodology. Our competition also charges the recruiter a commission
fee ranging between 6% - 10% on each placement the recruiter makes with their system. In
addition to the commission fee, our competition charges a monthly service charge per each
recruiter per month in order for them to use the system.
We plan on differentiating ourselves in three ways:
• Integrate a world-class ATS system with a very simple candidate/job order
sharing system
• Catering to the local city / municipality by social media and in-person after hour
networking events with recruiters only to build relationships and focusing on
increasing revenue generation
• Offering this product at an affordable monthly membership service with no
commission charge on each placement.
We believe the market is ready for this type of product. Recruitment is an industry that is
growing exponentially with an increase in small start-up and independent firms due to the low
initial start-up costs. There are very few products that cater towards independent recruiters and
small firms. We believe this product will assist recruiters to increase revenue placement and be

6
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
able for recruiters to find new homes for their candidates and bring new job orders to the
marketplace.

Operations
Our operations consists of in-house and outsourced resources. This department is designed
with our clients in mind. Our intention is to build long-term relationships with our clients. We will
be hiring part-time temporary employees through the first year of operation. Also, the software
development will be outsourced.

Operations within RNS will have three distinct phases:


a) Research and development
b) Software development
c) Software launch

We will be hiring people in four different categories:


• Short-term contract (full-time and/or part-time)
• Outsourced
• Contractors
• Full-time/part-time permanent employees

We have minimized operational expenses by using existing resources from previous


businesses. Also by using virtual services such as Fresh Books, Mozy and Intelligent Office.

Management Team

Our management team has a combined over 30 years experience in management roles.
The key members of the management team are Brian Pho, Iffy Kazim and Vwodek Wojczynski.

Mr. Pho has over 8 years experience operating a recruitment firm in downtown Toronto. As a
recruiter, his expertise is in technical sales, engineering and manufacturing.

Miss Kazim has over 13 years managing the operations of various businesses, with the key
experience being at an IT firm where she managed a team of developers. Her expertise is in
operations and financial management.

Mr. Wojczynski has been in business for almost 9 years, initially in the design & advertising
industry, and migrating to the coaching and consulting industry in 2006. As a business operator,
coach and consultant, he has worked with over 30 businesses personally, has trained over 200
interns for him firm (over a period of 4 years), and has had personal experience in successfully
accelerating the growth and development process of over 20 small businesses during the start-
up/growth stages.

Given our experience, we are clear about our strengths and weaknesses. As a team we have
already been working together for almost 6 months.

Organizationally, our chain of command will be Vwodek Wojczynski as the CEO (providing
direction and decisions about the future), with Iffy Kazim, COO (operations and finance) directly
reporting to him. Brian Pho, Marketing & Sales Manager will report directly to Iffy. (This is
depicted in detail in our organizational chart).

7
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
As the business grows we will look at hiring new team members. We believe at this stage that
the key management roles we will consider initially is for the Blue Ocean Department (Research
& Development) Customer Service, and Finance. If a member of our management team leaves,
our operations plan is to document the position such that new people can be developed to fulfill
the role.

Risk/Opportunity
We have considered the possible risks involved with this business. These risks are:

 Market risks
o New to the market
o Not being able to obtaining customer/client base
o Lack of ease of entry
o Slow industry traction
o Slower than expected adoption
o Slow-times or recession
o Slight risk of competition
 Operational risks
o Slower than expected software development
o The nature of software development and all the variables that contribute to
successful production
 Staffing risks
o Finding the right candidates
 Financial risks
o Mismanaged funds
 Managerial risks
o Poor project management
o Mismanagement of resources
o Going off timelines

To mitigate the risks we have implemented the following:


 Methods and procedures to limit liabilities
 Reserve fund
 Continuity of operations plan

Financial Summary
We have calculated a start-up cost of $20,500.

The operating forecast has been calculated for three different scenarios:
 Expected – this is the forecast we are using to for our operations and this is what
we have based our plan on.
 Optimistic – this is the forecast where sales are beyond our expectations.
 Pessimistic – this is the worse case scenario. This scenario provides forecast if
our sales do not go as planned and our costs are more than what we expected

The numbers for the break even analysis are as follows:


 Total costs for the year = $174,795.00
 Therefore, break even sales for the year = $174,795.00

8
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
 Number of memberships sold for the year = $174,795.00/$50 = 3496 memberships
 Each membership costs $50 (plus HST) per month. On average our monthly expenses
is $14,566.25. The number of units that would need to be sold on a monthly basis is
$14,566.25/$50 = 292 (approximately).

Capital Requirements
We have $15,000 cash at hand and access to another $25,000 of invested liquid capital. To
date no money has been invested in this business. However, there is some existing
infrastructure and work that has been done previously around this concept that resulted in a
BETA software system with $5,000.00 invested.

The funds are required to start the business, and develop, market and sell the software.

There are two items that we considered for capital requirements are:
a) Start up costs of $20,500, and
b) The maximum loss incurred of $90,593.

Based on these two amounts we are requesting a $100,000 grant.

Source of funds:

Source Amount
Your contribution (If any) $15,000-40,000
Grant $100,000
Loans 0
Total $115,000-140,000

1. Business Description

The name of the company is Recruiter Network Systems, Inc. and its head office is located in
Toronto, Ontario. The legal structure is a corporation, and it is a new company that is in its start-
up phase. Our first product has been tested in beta, and we will require IT development staff to
complete the beta software for alpha launch in the marketplace. The company will have 3 key
partners, with outsourced IT development staff.

The people we market our products to are independent recruiters and small recruitment firms
that intend on sharing half of the revenues (split fee revenue model) of the total fee paid by the
client.

The changes we see in the recruitment industry is the increased use of social media,
collaboration and cooperation between recruiters. The reasons behind this trend are two-fold:
a) the need to increase gross revenue per recruiter will become more relevant in a hyper-
competitive marketplace, and
b) socially people today are more inclined to collaborate and cooperate with each other, as
evidenced by the explosion of social media tools and online sharing.

The way our company will respond to these changes is by offering a platform for recruiters
designed by recruiters that leverages candidate and customer resources and support them in
forming split placement revenue.

Current Situation of the Industry


Based on conversations with recruiters and key customers we have outlined the current situation
of the recruitment industry below:
1. Saturated market
2. A lot of independent recruiters, working alone or in small groups
3. High competition, cut-throat marketplace with low margins
4. "Red ocean," over-saturated
5. Ease of entry into the industry (minimum requirements to start)
6. Entrepreneurial mind-set
7. Unlicensed industry, unregulated
8. There are no industry standards or compliance
9. Limited opportunities for recruiters to collaborate and co-operate
10. NPA and Top Echelon are both large global networks -- however, they are not focused
on local markets
11. Undefined industry practices
12. Split placements in the industry (NPA and Top Echelon), CRM systems exist
(PCRecruiter, HireDesk)
13. Low reputation of industry by key customers

Future of the Industry


a) The use of social media is on the rise exponentially in virtually every industry (source:
Google.com) .
b) As a service based industry recruiters will need to use a combination of direct search
and internet research (soft skills and hard skills) with an ever increasing rise of soft skills
such as communication, collaboration and co-operation if they intend on being
successful.
c) There is a lot of opportunity for growth and standardization
d) The establishment of industry practices will emerge

11
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Industry Market Segments
Industry market segments are defined by the recruiter and they can work with several industry
segments at the same time
For example, clinical, medical and bankruptcy/insolvency.

Impact of Recruiter Systems Network, Inc. on the Industry

2. Products / Services

independent and small business owners in the recruitment space. We are an Information
Technology company that merges the gap between a full recruiter CRM / contact management
software service combined with a split revenue generation service. We provide this service on
a monthly membership basis with no additional costs or hidden fees attached.

amoungst recruiters has also been around for 30_ years. This product will be the first of its kind
to introduce recruiters to a full contact management software database with the potential of
increasing their production through sharing of candidates and job orders. There has not been a

revenue generation service amongst recruiters.
The product will offer the following services to the recruitment marketplace:
Core Services (Recruitment)
Full CRM software support
Split fee revenue generation amoungst recruiters integrated with a full ATS software support
Integration with many social media and mobile application server support for a variety of search

Pricing

We will be charging a monthly service fee of $49.99 per month per user. In order to attract
recruiters, we will start beta testing and surveying recruiters in the Toronto region. Beta testers
will be given access to the system for 3 months free to test out trails, bugs and troubleshoot the
system. After a 3 month period, a monthly service fee of $49.99/month/user will be charged.
For non-beta testers, we will provide one month free in order to generate critical mass for a
certain population. Referral fees can be generated through existing members and through beta
testers.

2.1. Product/Service Description

Our product is differentiated in the marketplace through price, ease of use and the use of split
fee network systems. Other split fee network systems charge a commission for each placement
that the recruiter uses in that network. These commissions range anywhere from 6% to 10% of
the overall client fees. In addition to the commissions charged, a monthly service fee ranging
from $80/month/user is charged to the recruiter that uses the system. This lowers the amount of
commission the recruiter retains as we believe this system benefits the system user rather than
the recruiter themselves.

We differentiate ourselves in the marketplace by the use of a free beta testing network
(anywhere from 1 month to 3 months) in which our service will be available on a subscription
basis of $49.99/month/user. No commission will be obtained if a placement is made through our
system and a minor set-up fee might be charged to the client. The system will integrate with
many other social media platforms (Facebook, LinkedIN) in order to build local communities of
recruiters in each major metropolitan region. RNS will also be developing monthly Recruiter
Meetups and networking opportunities to meet other recruiters associated with the network in
order to strengthen the relationship between recruiters who use the system. Recruiter meetups
will also build a forum for recruiters in which recruiters can talk about their challenges that they

16
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
are facing within their industry. We believe that these network meetings can be promoted
through social media sites and be charged on a free basis. Future membership to this service
will be based upon referrals.

We believe the potential of a recruiter network system is huge in order to grow candidate and
job order base. By using this system, we believe recruiters can increase their level of production
and be more efficient in placing hard to find candidates.

Future Applications of the Product

By having completed our initial research, and having two senior recruiters on our team, we
believe that there is a large market for this product. Future applications include an enhanced
membership package for recruiters who actively use our system in which we can increase our
membership price. Large amount of tracking will be used to administer and track users within
the system. Top producers will normally want to link with other Top producers who are actively
engaged with our system and we believe an enhanced level of membership and services will be
required to cater to these top producers. An enhanced level of membership will include:
a) Access to other multi-national cities across North America with the potential of networking
with other recruiters on an international level.
b) An enhanced search capability to not only scan the candidates with one recruiter network
but also with other potential recruiters.
c) Exclusive face to face network opportunities with other recruiters who are also top
producers to build relationships and increase revenues.
d) A distinction between different recruiter niches for further recruiters to network within each
speciality niche. (We recognize that recruiters specialize in certain market segmentations.
The opportunity for like minded recruiters to network within a speciality niche can increase
revenue production per recruiter).

Stage of Development

Our product is in the early stage of development at this time. We believe that extensive
Research and Development with offshore development teams and product development
will be required in order to bring this product from R&D to production. We plan on a
March 2011 beta test launch timeframe with the remainder of this year used in product
development, testing and beta-testing stage.

We believe the market is ready for a product of this nature. Why? There are many
independent recruiters that are working by themselves in order to create a successful
practice. There are very little resources that cater towards independent recruiters at this
time. We believe RNS would be a complete package offered to independent recruiters in
which they can not only share resources but also take advantage of a full Applicant
Tracking System in order to grow their business.

2.2. Unique Features or Proprietary Aspects of Product/Service

Our service is very unique in a very large industry which tends to be unregulated and
entrepreneurial. According to Statistics Canada, there are over four thousand recruitment firms
in the Greater Toronto Area. Within this group of recruitment firms lies independent recruiters,
large multi-branch recruitment firms and small start-ups. Due to the low overhead costs of
starting up a recruitment agency, we believe that many recruitment firms exist. However many

17
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
of these firms die out within the first 3-5 years of start-up. Our system caters towards small
independent recruitment firms and help them survive the long start-up process that is required
when starting any professional firm. We are offering a marriage between ATS and split fee
revenue generation. We believe both of these markets have experienced tremendours growth
throughout the years - however, there has not been a product that has a successful marriage
between ATS and split fee revenue generation. The target audience has not seen an
affordable, world class recruitment marketplace where recruiters can share candidates and
client job orders in a system that is very easy to use. We can combine our recruitment
experience and the I.T. knowledge of a professional management team to develop a world class
system where many recruiters can share.

Our Uniqueness and Our Competition


We want to start off as a local based community within a major metropolitan area. Our goal is to
have every recruiter to use our system in order for them to be more productive in their
environment and their work. Once local domination of a particular market / city has been
achieved (100+ recruiters per city), we will then work in another location to build local recruiter
domination.
Currently, many split-fee recruiter networks are globally based that do not include participation
with many local municipalities. Our competition does not promote monthly networking meetings
in which recruiters can meet and build strong relationships with each other. We believe that
existing systems are too complicated to use in an I.T. setting. Based upon these results,
recruiters tend to shy away from networking or split-fee revenue generating systems.
In order to maintain our growth, we plan on using an intern-based model system to keep our
costs at a minimum. Using interns and more of a virtual based model to maintain and
troubleshoot our sytem allows us to keep our costs affordable and lower as compared to many
other split-fee network systems already on the marketplace. In order to promote our services,
we can promote ourselves through regular governing boards (ACCESS) and also variety of
Chamber events (Vaughan Chamber of Commerce and Toronto Board of Trade). Incorporation
of RNS to existing networking social networking and regular networking sessions will be
required in order to promote our product and/or services. (Toronto Buinsess Leaders, Vaughan
Chamber of Commerce). We also plan on promoting our growth through educational articles
written by RNS in recruitment trade journals and other human resource organizations.

3. The Market
The market for our service is currently untested. Recruitment is a very volatile market in which
few support services are specifically catered towards this industry. Currently many CRM
software systems, to be useful for the recruitment industry, require heavy customization in order
to bring an off the shelf CRM to a recruitment desk. There are many ATS systems currently
available on the marketplace, however, none of these CRM combine a split fee recruiter
arrangement in order for recruiters to increase their revenues. Our product caters directly
towards the recruitment industry (NAICS: 561310 - Employment Agencies). Many recruiters are
segmented by their very own niche specialities and rarely do these recruiters branch out from
their niche markets. Split placements are currently performed by recruiters that share a similar
speciality niche area , however these splits are done on a firm by firm level in which there is no
forum or marketplace in which they can interact. Many organizations that offer split revenue
placements are either globally based and do not emphasize on local concentration. One such
firm is NPA (www.npainc.com) . NPA is a global organization that caters to 20 different
countries around the world. Their goal is become more global and recruit more recruiters in
other parts of the globe to become part of their system. This is the same model used by Top
Echelon and other split fee networks.

3.1. Industry Analysis

Challenges to the Recruitment Industry

The following challenges to the current recruitment industry are:


Lack of collobaration between recruiters in order to produce more split fee revenue.
Lack of face to face communication with other recruiters in order to develop deeper
relationships.
Lack of trust amoungst recruiters. Most recruiters are working in competition with each
other for very little profit and job orders.
Lack of use in social media to network and market their own product

The largest players to the recruitment industry are many split fee revenue generation
networks. We also believe that many large recruitment firms have generated their own
internal split fee networks that weed out independent recruiters and local competition.

Some of the largest competitors in this space are:


NPA - National Personeel Association
Top Echelon and
3DORS.

We have seen many recruiting network systems move towards globalization. The advantage of
large recruitment system is the potential of recruiting internationally however with this model,
recruiters lose focus on localized issues. We then find too many recruiters too spread out
throughout the network which causes lack of depth in each metropolitan area / region. Not only
is the geographic region affected, but also market niches does not seem to be monopolized and
a depth of knowledge in a certain niche area is not fully explored.

We believe that the growth forecasts for recruitment networks are large and will grow
exponentially. Due to the low start-up costs of a recruiter desk and a large lack of support for
independent recruiters, we believe a system must be placed in order to serve this demand.

20
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Having independent recruiters share in split revenue generation is one way that our system can
grow and produce profitability. Stats Canada has already shown recruiting is a $4B dollar
industry. 70% of these revenues are generated through small , independent recruitment firms in
which RNS would provide a platform for.

Economic Indicators and The Effect of the Global Economy on Recruiter Network
Systems (RNS)
With the fluctuation in stock markets, recruitment is bound to be affected by job loss, economic
turmoil and natural disasters. All of these indicators point to job stability, economy and evidently
the production potential of an independent recruiter. If a recruiter works independently, market
fluctuations within a certain market segment affects the recruiter's income and production
potential - sometimes the effects are magnified exponentially as evidenced in 2009 by several
small recruitment firms we have spoken to. This is harmful financially for a small business
owner, an independent recruiter or a small size firm that specializes in a specific niche.

Recruiter Network Systems offers a pooled plan of recruiters in the same type of industry. We
believe with a pooled plan of recruiters working in niche market segmentations will result in our
system to be immune to market fluctuations. During any recession, one particular market
segment is up while another market segmentation is down. Since RNS would be based on a
membership only monthly fee, we believe that if we have a pooled resource of recruiters using
the system at any given time, there will always be a recurring and constant flow of revenue into
our system despite any market fluctuations. RNS would accomodate different market
segmentations and have recruiters specialize in their own segmentation in order to become a
collaborative resource. In this event, we do not believe that sharp fluctuations in the market will
effect RNS production and revenue generation.

The Use of Technology, Vendors and Finances in Recruiter Network System


In order to scale our operations, we plan on using virtual offices and communal business space
in order to adapt and grow our business. We will use offshore development teams in Phillipines
as most of the funding will be used to supervise, manage and develop the product. With a virtual
officing environment, a monthly subscription fee can be paid to our vendor, Intelligent Office.
The use of this subscription allows us to set-up satellite offices wherever Intelligent Office has a
location. Currently, Intelligent Office has worldwide locations in over 60 countries. We will also
use trade secret RSC Business Group Technology in order to survey markets, perform
research and development and provide much needed market support in order to build an
adaptable and robust system. RSC Technology will also be used in order to survey, assess and
train recruiters and staff that will be available to maintain and troubleshoot the system. A
Customer Service team can be used offshore to help RNS to reduce cost and maximize
profitability.

21
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Profit Expectations Within First Year of Growth
Our profit expectations are the following for the first year of growth after beta launch:

Toronto - Membership $50/member


Grow to 134 members = $6700 recurring revenue per month

Montreal - Membership $50/member


Grow to 100 members = $5000 recurring revenue per month

Annual Projections for Two Cities: $11,700 *12 is approximately $140,000 per annum with two
cities and gross annual revenue.

3.3. Market Analysis


There is a potential need for a recruitment marketplace in today's society. With gross annual
revenues in the recruitment industry bloating to over $4B, many indepndent recruiters have
nowhere to turn in order to build comradie, co-operation and most importantly, find a home for
their hard to find candidates. There are current split revenue generation systems in place,
however, these plans are more geared towards a global presence rather than focus on local
concentration within a certain population. The demand is definitely in place - however, very little
systems are created to cater towards this demand. There are many internal network systems
within larger corporations. However, very few resources cater to the small start-up, independent
and growing organizations.

RNS will focus on localization rather than globalization. Few recruiters that produce large
activity within a small segment will definitely benefit the system. The target audience are
independent, small , home based businesses where they understand the use of collobration and
co-operation in order to increase gross revenue in the end. Our localization can even be
centered / focused upon certain geographic communities within the GTA. Vaughan is a growing
yet bustling community with very little recruiter capitalization. We want to build recruiter systems
that may be able to take advantage of the local community in order to grow and expand.

Every year there are more independent and small recruiting firms sprouting up due to the low
overhead cost it takes to enter the recruitment industry. Our product can cater to these groups
of individuals and provide an open forum of colloboration, revenue growth and production
control.

Currently, there are no competitors in our space. There are many CRM and ATS systems out in
the marketplace and there are many split fee revenue generation networks - however, we do not
have a system that combines both of these together.

Current Competitors for Split Fee Revenue Generation Networks are:


 NPA
 Top Echelon

Current Competitors for CRM Systems are:


 PCRecruiter
 Talent Technologies
 Bullhorn

Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
4. Marketing Strategies and Sales
4.1. Introduction
Our marketing plan will include local meetup groups, social media, referrals and writing in many
trade organizations. Being recognized in ACCESS and ERE and other social media websites for
online advertising will also be part of our marketing plan and strategy. We will use an already
existing network of Toronto Business Leaders to promote RNS with selected speakers on a
variety of topics within the recruitment industry.
Once given, we will create Vaughan Business Leaders and start promoting our product through
blogs, articles, social media and referral networks. Through mass media and viral, RNS will be
able to branch out into other cities such as Montreal and Halifax.

4.2. Market Segmentation Strategy


The strength of RNS is based upon geographic localization and market segmentation.

Geographic segmentation:
We will start by promoting our service through social media and networking groups around the
city. With the addition of Toronto Business Leaders, we can definitely build more structure and
networking opportunities amongst recruiters.

Product-user segmentation:
We can also start segmenting customers based on specific industry niches. Medical ,
Manufacturing, Industrial Distribution and sales can be grouped into same net base.

4.3. How RNS will become real in our market


We will target, create awareness and branch in 4 different ways:
Hosting monthly localized networking events in conjunction with other already established
networks. (JCI, NAAAP, Toronto Business Leaders)
E-mail marketing campaigns with already built databases to these already established networks.
Promotion of service through writing and being published in trade magazines and advertising
with strategic partners (Monster.com, Workopolis.com)
Branded logo on pens and stationary with our company name, number and e-mail attached.
e) Attending tradeshows and unconferences will promote our brand and our awareness.
f) We will employ the RSC Business Group training methodology and use interns to promote our
brand. Compensating interns on a 'performance' basis will sort out the interns that truly intend
on being part of our company and, those that do stay, will be developed to promote our brand in
the marketplace. Our goal is to generate a culture that can provide what is needed and wanted
to our market, and making sales happen by being of service to our community of recruiters.

4.4. Targeting Strategy


Recruiter Network Systems is focusing on Target (Niche) Marketing. Our niche market is
independent recruiters and small recruitment firms with a highly specialised offer.

4.5. Positioning Strategy


Our positioning strategy is in relation to our target/niche market. By using the principles of Blue
Ocean Strategy we are taking an already existing market and creating a new offer -- in effect it
is taking advantage of these markets and creating a new market out of it. Most of our positioning
strategy has been already discussed in Section 2 of our business plan.

23
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
4.6. Service Strategy
As discussed, we will be marketing towards independent recruitment firm, small firms and start-
ups. Our ease of use design and forming a recruitment marketplace for independent recruiters
to share databases and job orders in a cost effective structure will differentiate us from most of
the competition. Please refer to Section 2 & 3 for details on how we tend to market our strengths
to our customer base.

4.7. Pricing Strategy


As discussed, our pricing strategy is simple. A monthly subscription fee per user using our
system. We plan on charging $49.99/month/user which can be paid through a merchant account
(Visa, Mastercard) or online through paypal.

4.8. Distribution Channels

We will employ our own sales force and as of yet we are not thinking of selling our
product/service through distribution or channel network sales.

4.9. Promotion and Advertising Strategy

We plan on promoting our service through local networking groups, existing networking groups
(Chamber of Commerce, Toronto Business Leaders) and virally through social media.
(Facebook, LinkedIN, Twitter). We believe most recruiters are technology savvy and would be
able to find us by these means. Referrals from existing customers will also be a large part of our
marketing and revenue stream.

Marketing Vehicles
We will be able to create promotional materials in order to market our product. Sponsoring local
chamber events, promotional items and good old fashioned networking would be used in order
to spread the word of our service. Attendance in already large networking communiteies, golf
tournaments are all standards in order to promote our brand and our service.

In addition, we will be having a launch event for our software to introduce to our target market.

Promotional Budget
Most of our revenue costs will be allocated through advertising and promotions either through
corporate sponsorship, advertising or member participation.

4.10. Sales Strategy


We have already have a strong sales team consisting of 2 full time recruiters. Brian has over 9+
years of recruitment experience while Shauna has over 8+ years of recruitment experience. Our
existing networks combined with e-mail marketing campaigns and good old fashioned
networking will the bulk of our sales strategy.

Hiring of interns in order to develop lead generation would be ideal in order to be cost effective
during our start-up stage.

24
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
4.11. Sales Forecasts
We will start with Toronto. A monthly subscription fee of $49.99/month/user would be initially
charged. Given that 100 recruiters within the Toronto marketplace use our system, this will
produce an annual gross revenue generation of $5000. Once 100 recruiters has been attained,
we will start branching off into other cities and repeat the process from Toronto. We are
forecasting sales of $140,000 for the year.

6.3. Management Structure and Style

Organizational Chart

INSERT ORG CHART HERE

Management Style
The foundation of our management style is based in "results based coaching management."
This approach trains people to be responsible and accountable for the results they produce. In
our management system the ultimate tool to examine what actions are to be taken -- or not to
be taken -- is what happens in reality.

While our methodology is ultimately a synthesis of a variety of different sources, the key
management principles are derived from the RSC Business Group management philosophy.
Other ideas can be found in "Management Rewired" by Charles S. Jacobs that challenges
management principles based on the most recent brain science, the work of Ichak Adizes that
identifies the ideal organizational life cycles, W. Edwards Deming who stresses timeless
operational principles, and John King who shares about the power of organizational cultures
and tribal leadership.

The cornerstone to our management philosophy is creating a safe space where the truth can be
told.

The full extent of our management style and how the company will operate internally is outlined
in our company's Internal Mission. The way we define an Internal Mission is a Promise our
company makes to its members (the people within the organization) and determines how the
company will behave.

RECRUITER NETWORK SYSTEMS INTERNAL MISSION:


As an organization and a system – collectively and individually:
We are entrepreneurial, adaptable and flexible
We cause, generate and maintain abundance, prosperity, profitability and viability for ourselves
We adhere to our Charter – Vision, Mission, Internal Mission, culture code, values and
operational definitions
We live from compassion, honesty, generosity and wisdom
We compensate those that produce correct results exceptionally well
We respect individuality and work as a team
We generate environments where the truth can be told
We communicate openly and appropriately
We operate transparently with nothing hidden
We continuously recognize, reward, and remember our current team members and past
members for their contributions
We hold ourselves accountable for promises given and received
We are responsible for all of our actions by acknowledging, making amends and cleaning up
any and all mistakes we may cause directly and/or indirectly

We always:
Thoughtfully grow, develop and expand ourselves and the organization
Account for and honor our humanity even as we grow, develop and expand

33
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Make a positive, global impact together
Generate our work and profit from living inside of an integrated global culture, effortlessly and
decisively
Take necessary steps to ensure ever-improving optimal individual and collective well-being, joy
and vitality
Operate at an optimal level collectively and individually
Plan for, prepare, maintain, and develop new core competencies, foundations, and capabilities
even as we reposition and build up our old competencies, foundations and capabilities.

There is always more room at the top because:


We are always growing and expanding our foundation, support and base
We keep inventing, building, and reaching the next level – and the next level thereafter
We leverage already existing resources while inventing, creating and maintaining new
resources
We never stop generating opportunities for those who will do what it takes to get us all to the
next level

Our door for growth, expansion, and advancement is open and will always remain open for
anyone who wishes to walk through it and do what it takes.

Whatever level people choose and build, they can have it and maintain it – or its equivalent – for
their life.

Each and every member of the organization is trained and developed in the business, cultural,
social, emotional, intellectual, monetary and financial areas in the most positive, effective way
possible.

Each and every one of us grows as a human being and a fellow member of the company.

The aspect of our management that is innovative is our sorting process for locating new talent
so that people choose our company (versus the company doing the choosing). The innovative
aspect of our management style is that the executives provide regular training and development
for all interns and staff that join the company. We will not hire people from the outside of our
culture unless they have gone through the basic training. This will protect our company culture
and it is essential towards the growth and expansion of our business.

7. Operations
7.1. Operations Strategy

Value for our customers:


As a robust online and mobile platform it will allow independent recruiters to work collaboratively
and share half of the revenues of the total fee paid by the client (through a split fee revenue
model) on searches, while radically decreasing the amount of time it takes to source candidates.

There will be no commission fees for the recruiters -- any recruiter will be able to simply use the
system by paying a standard membership fee. This will provide more money for the recruiters
and allow us to expand our network rapidly to other cities in North America.

Our customer service department will be able to follow up and offer additional services that
makes a difference

 What is important to us:

For us what is important is long-term client building (customer service).

 We will have a procedures for customer service which includes:


o Client relationship building
o Dealing with clients with non-technical issues
o Dealing with clients with technical issues

We are committed that recruiters form a network and have the ability to leverage their skills in
partnership with others.

7.2. Scope of Operations


In-house and outsourced:
• Marketing, sales and customer service will be conducted in-house.
• Software development, maintenance and software trouble shooting will be out-sourced.

We are considering the following positions:


• Research assistants to assist in performing surveys. This is a short term contract
position for about 3 months.
• Software developers with experience in ASP.net. We will be using an on-line service –
and this is essentially being outsourced. However, ODesk requires us to interview
people and “hire” them for the duration of the job.
• A customer service representative for non-technical service. Outside of technical issues
all customer service will be done in-house.
• A programme specialists that will assist in trouble shooting. This will be outsourced.
• An event planner to manage the software launch event. This is a short term contract.
• We may hire an assistant as required.

7.3. Ongoing Operations


Operations within RNS will have three distinct phases:
d) Research and development
e) Software development
f) Software launch

36
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Research and development
During the R&D phase we will be conducting the following actions:
• Contact recruiters and introduce ourselves and what are we doing
• Invite them to participate in the survey
• Let them know they will have an opportunity to try out the beta version of the survey
• Schedule surveys
• Conduct surveys
• Log surveys
• Analyse surveys
• Gather business requirements from analysis
• Create business requirements document

Software Development
During the development phase we will conduct the following actions:
• Check software development progress
• Find out what each developer is dealing and resolve issues
• Attend weekly meeting to discuss progress and next steps
• Provide guidance
• Update other key members

Software Launch
Once the software has been officially launch we will be doing the following activities:
• Ensure that the software is running reliably
• Trouble-shoot any issues
• Deal with customers as needed
• Recommend upgrades as necessary to operations
• This will be based on feedback that is received from existing customers

Our operations will be based on the context of our Company Charter which consists of the
following components:
• Future History Strategy
• Vision
• External Mission
• Internal Mission
• Operational Definitions
• Core Values
• The company will have the following structures and documentation:
• Divisions
• Departments
• Operational Plan
• Procedure manual
• Sales manual
• Customer Service Manual
• List of Positions
• Job Descriptions (External and Operational Version)
• Job Process Flow

37
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
• Job Procedures
• Daily Activities and Practices
• Daily Checklist

The key operational guidelines are as follows:


• Each person in the company has a job description (internal operational version and
external public version for posting on job sites), with specific measurable outcomes that
they create
• Management, staff and interns read the company charter daily
• Attend events that are targeted for recruiters
• Follow RSC Situational Formulas™ according to business conditions
• Quarterly planning meetings to be scheduled 1 year out
• Annual corporate retreats for annual planning

7.4. Location

Our program is internet-based, therefore, we do not require any permanent physical location.
We will be utilizing existing infrastructure for any in-person meetings that may be required.
Also, from time-to-time, we will be using Intelligent Office (www.intelligentoffice.com) for our
office requirements. It is a virtual office solution provider with locations in Toronto, North York,
Oakville, Hamilton, Vaughan, Mississauga and Ottawa and will enable us to scale our operation
across the GTA with minimal investment.

7.5. Personnel
We will be hiring people in four different categories:
• Short-term contract (full-time and/or part-time)
• Outsourced
• Contractors
• Full-time/part-time permanent employees

For at least the first year we will be hiring people on a short term as needed basis. As demand
increases we will part-time help to meet the increase. Besides the 3 executives we do not have
any staff.

Executive and managerial level positions are salaried. All junior level positions are paid by the
hour.

Due to the nature of our business and how we have operated at RSC Business Group Toronto
and Campbell Morden, we want to ensure that anyone we hire on permanently is aligned with
our culture and values.

We will write job descriptions for all the different positions as we are set up operations
documents. We will use the job format provided in Appendix C.

7.6. Production
The Recruiter Network Systems, Inc is an internet based company. Our interactions with our
clients will be via phone and internet.

38
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Virtual Delivery
The software is internet based so once the client has signed the contract we will set up the
necessary access and give them the password.
Customer service
Our relationships with our customers are important to us and it is important that we provide
value through the Recruiter Network – therefore our customer service program will be
thoroughly developed to ensure the customer is getting what they want.
The customer has the option to sign up for a news letter which will promote new programs, new
research findings etc.
Quality control
Quality control will be part of the customer service process.
We will develop a Quality Control Survey that will be conducted regularly with customers and
clients, their feedback will be used to up-grade our program.

7.7. Operations Expenses


We have minimized our overhead expenses by using already existing resources such as
existing office spaces, utilities, equipment, etc. However, we have overhead expenses that are
specific to this business, which are included in the following list.
 Accounting
 Bank Fees
 Fresh Books
 Legal
 Mgt Team Bonus (split 3-ways)
 Mozy
 Networking
 Office expenses
 Phones
 Licensing Fee
 Sales Commissions
 Training
 Transportation
 Travel Expenses
 Researchers/Surveyors
 Software development

 Marketing/Advertising
 Marketing Event
 Refund (Attrition)

Employee Expenses:
 Salary - Brian Pho
 Salary - Vwodek Wojczynski
 Salary - Iffy Kazim

Amounts pertaining to the above items can be found in Section 8 – Financial.

Cost Controls
The area with the most variables in terms of cost is software development. Our prior experience
has taught us that software development usually goes beyond the dead-line and over budget.

39
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
To mitigate this we have allocated extra funds in the area of software development. A
developer from the Philippines on average cost about $10/hour. We have allocated $15/hour
for nearly 1,500 hours of development time. This cost will most likely be distributed among
several developers. In addition, we have allocated 6 months for development which is more time
than a project of this size should require.

Administrative and Financial Controls


In order to provide controls over all operations of the company we will develop procedures for
activities within the company. These will be followed. People will be rewarded for the work they
produce.

Financial controls are provided by monitoring cash flow and producing reports on a weekly basis
to know what is the status of the finances at all times.

7.8. Legal Environment


We will use a license from RSC Business Group's licensing arm RSC TEK to use the business
management know-how, business operations technology and financial reporting systems.
The software developed is the intellectual property of Recruiter Network Systems. All
contractors, employees, etc. are required to sign a non-disclosure agreement.

7.9. Inventory
This section is not applicable and will not affect the delivery of our service.

7.10. Suppliers
This section is not applicable.

7.11. Credit Policies


We accept all major credit cards including AMEX, MasterCard and VISA.

All sales for the priviledge of using the Recruiter Network Systems are final. We do not offer

Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
8. Financials
In this section, we have developed the financials required for launching and operating Recruiter
Network System, Inc. We have used numbers gathered from previous experiences. We have
also consulted financial specialist, Gregory Doomanis, MBA, of RSC Business Group – who has
over 25 years of experience in the financial sector.

8.1. Start-up Funds

The start-up budget is provided in the Appendix A. The cost listed are a combination of costs
drawn from experience and estimated costs.

We have calculated a start-up cost of $20,500.

8.2. Financial History and Analysis (current businesses only)

This section is not applicable.

8.3. Current Financial Position (current, takeover or franchise businesses only)

This section is not applicable

8.4. Operating Forecast

The operating forecast has been calculated for three different scenarios:
 Expected – this is the forecast we are using to for our operations and this is what
we have based our plan on.
 Optimistic – this is the forecast where sales are beyond our expectations, our
expenses for marketing and software development are lower than expected and
attrition is only at .5%.
 Pessimistic – this is the worst case scenario. This scenario provides forecast if
our sales do not go as planned. All expenses stay the same.

The tables with calculations are provided in Appendix A. We have attached tables for all three
scenarios for the first year on a monthly basis, for years 2 and 3 on a quarterly basis and for
years 4 and 5 on a yearly basis.

Our company’s launch date is August 15, 2010. Therefore, the year is segmented as follows:
 First quarter – August 15 to October 31
 Second quarter – November 1 – January 31
 Third quarter – February 1 – April 30
 Fourth quarter – May 1 – August 14.

We have calculated sales based on number of memberships per month, and monthly expenses.
We have also included a monthly Reserve Fund which is 7% of total sales per month.

8.5. Break-Even Analysis


The numbers for the break even analysis were obtained from Summary for the Expected
Monthly Forecasts.

Total costs for the year = $174,795.00


Therefore, break even sales for the year = $174,795.00
41
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
Number of memberships sold for the year = $174,795.00/$50 = 3496 memberships
Each membership costs $50 (plus HST) per month. On average our monthly expenses is
$14,566.25. The number of units that would need to be sold on a monthly basis is
$14,566.25/$50 = 292 (approximately).

8.6. Balance Sheet


Since this is new company we do not have historical balance sheets. However, we have
appended the balance sheet for 1756455 Ontario Inc.
We have also included an opening day balance sheet and a pro-forma balance sheet for end of
year 1 and year 2.
At this time information is limited and as new data gets established around this business we will
be updating these balance sheets accordingly.

8.7. Income Statement


We have attached the income statements for two companies:
 1756455 Ontario Inc.
 RSC Business Group Toronto

These two companies have been owned and run by the two partners separately.

Profit and Loss sheets are attached in Appendix A.

Although, Recruiter Network Systems is a new company with no prior financial history, we have
included these statements to give you sense of our progress over the last few years.

8.8. Cash Flow


A predicted cash flow sample is provided in Appendix A.

We have used June 2011, a month where the income predicted is steady. However, there is no
certainty of what the payment schedule for memberships will be. We made an assumption of
how the membership fees will come in.

Since there is no existing income (P&L) statement for this particular business, the forecasted
operational costs have been used.

42
Recruiter Network Systems Business Plan
9. Funding Request
9.1. Capital Requirements
We have $15,000 cash at hand and access to another $25,000 of invested liquid capital. To
date no money has been invested in this business. However, there is some existing
infrastructure and work that has been done previously around this concept that resulted in a
BETA software system with $5,000.00 invested.

The funds are required to start the business, and develop, market and sell the software.

There are two items that we considered for capital requirements are:
c) Start up costs of $20,500, and
d) The maximum loss incurred of $90,593.

Based on these two amounts we are requesting a $100,000 grant.

in the market. The opportunity for the recruiter is that he/she will be able to access information
at the push of the button and provide better service to the client. Also, recruiter will be able to
connect with each other, work in partnership and contribute to each other.

9.3. Exit Strategy

For our exit strategy we considered several options such as “Bleeding the company dry”, selling
shares, liquidating, etc. Based on the advantages and disadvantages of each of these
strategies we agreed upon having a Fair Buy/Sell Agreement. This agreement will be drawn
at the time of incorporation.
