From Two Blokes One Business · 58:23

Show by Harvey Rivers & Adam Powell

Three and a bit years into Harwell, our recruitment agency, we open the doors on how we actually run it. You get the real business systems, processes, and structure we use todayThe biggest lesson? We didn’t invent any of it. We copied the best operators we could find and paid to learn from them, over $200K so far. We break down the three mentors who shaped us: SWISH for an honest, ethical sales process, Jess Cameron for leadership and mindset, and EOS (the Entrepreneurial Operating System) for scorecards, L10 meetings, and accountability.We also cover how to map your first sales process as a simple flowchart with AI, and why our first offshore hire never had a chance.You’ll hear how to turn content marketing on LinkedIn into a sales engine, and the AI tools we built to cut admin without replacing human contact. Plus the maths on why saving 30% of a recruiter’s time could be worth $750K a year, how our company culture got too soft and what fixed it, what we still haven’t nailed, and the mindset you need before you leave your 9 to 5.If you’re thinking about starting a business, or you’re in the messy early years of small business growth, this is the blueprint we wish we’d had.
