You Are Not Alone

You Will Never Be On Your Own in Your Job Search or Career Change as an Endeavor Client

"You are not alone," is what we tell Endeavor Agency partner clients during their onboarding process with Endeavor Agency. Below is how we came to include this statement in our messages to clients and prospects.

 

You Are Not Alone in Your Job Search or Career Change


"Which part of our service areas do you believe you will value most?"


We ask this question of all new clients during the initial client consultation. They usually pause for a few seconds to consider all the areas where we will be helping them. While it varies from person to person, the most common response we hear is, "Honestly, it's knowing that I'm not alone in this process. Having someone working with me who is a phone call, an email, or text message away is very reassuring."

 

The most interesting part of this response is that this response occurs without being included in a list of options. We originally didn't highlight this aspect as an important part of our services. We truly thought most people would say either helping them get their foot in the door for interviews, or prepping to win interviews.

 

Over a decade ago when we first started the company, it focused on contract negotiations. The services grew quickly in response to what clients said they needed. It never fully dawned on us at the beginning how lonely it feels when you're looking for a job, need all kinds of answers to a multitude of questions and have no one to whom you can turn.

 

Now, we emphasize it. "You are not alone in this process." It really seems to resonate with current and prospective clients.
