Leadstars is a recruitment marketing agency that builds a complete recruitment marketing department for staffing and recruitment agencies. Two systems: the JAM (Job Acquisition Machine) delivers candidates, the CAS (Client Acquisition System) delivers clients.
For staffing agencies, recruitment agencies, executive search firms, secondment agencies and contract staffing firms — from new offices to regional chains in the Netherlands and the US.
In documented campaigns the cost is between €8.96 and €30.51 per qualified candidate, depending on job group, region and competition in the labour market.
Campaigns go live within days. Most agencies see their first applicants within 7 days and their first qualified client leads (5 to 20 per month through the CAS) within the first month after launch.
The JAM focuses on candidates: job marketing campaigns, AI sourcing and multi-channel job distribution. The CAS focuses on clients: targeted outreach and funnels that produce client conversations per region or niche.
