Testimonials from October, 2004

The October, 2004 conference was held in Miami Florida. Everyone had a great time, learned, and got motivated! Check out their testimonials, and if you missed this conference, there's another coming soon in Philadelphia!

"Kathleen Kurke's presentation was impressive.

"I shared 'Ten Criteria to Evaluate Job Order' with my peers and it was very helpful to them as well. Many of my fellow consultants and I have been rating our active job openings and we are amazed how the grading scale works!

"For December I have billed my all time high and also set a new record for my company as well! I have about 57K in billing for this month which is unheard of in the administrative/clerical placement arena, especially for December and it is not over at this writing!

"We also had a nice reminder that, with the right questions/consulting, we can turn a 'chicken-wrap' job order into something of more value. Although all of this seems basic, it's just that that keeps us on top of our 'game.' Keeping Brilliant at the Basics!!!!"   Lina Savage

"Once again we had another fabulous meeting! Personally, it was nice to catch up with someone I hadn't seen for a few years and also to have the opportunity to meet new people who were inspiring. Professionally, as always, our Pinnacle peers generously took the time to share their experience and insight. I always look to walk away from the meeting with a few morsels of wisdom that will affect my billings. This year it came from Kathleen Kurke, her 10 step methodology to rank search assignments has now become a staple on my desk. I love, love, love (is that too many loves?) preaching to my clients about the importance of 'selling in' versus 'screening out' the candidates I'm presenting. Lastly, shortly after the meeting Rich Bradley and I worked a 40K split, which was a nice pre-holiday present that never would have happened without my Pinnacle affiliation!"    Kim Knoll

"The Pinnacle Society meetings consistently provide superior value for investment of both time and money--and Miami was no exception. You just can't get the opportunity anywhere else to cultivate relationships with so many successful recruiters as well as sharing advanced strategy and tactics.

"Miami was a great atmosphere to learn, socialize and recharge the batteries. Thanks to the society board for providing a terrific venue and another successful meeting!"    Mike Goldman"

"Someone else mentioned recharging batteries in one of these testimonials. For me, Pinnacle has become my 'docking station'. The 6 month interval is just perfect. I am about halfway to the next meeting and about half done implementing the suggestions and ideas from the Miami trip. I think I will always appreciate the level of sharing of what might be considered 'trade secrets' at these gatherings."    Dave Staats
