<DIV CLASS="content col-md-offset-2">“What would happen if your permanent Gross Profit (Net fees) dropped by 50%, and temporary/contract GP by 25%? And the drop occurred in a month and did not recover for two years. Would you survive?”<BR><BR>This is the question Greg Savage, who is on the Board of 14 recruitment and HR tech companies, asks his clients to consider. And he usually raises it when the going is good, and profits are at record levels. Like right now, for most of them. Because that is precisely the time directors get complacent. We start to believe in a world of never-ending fat years. No thought is given to surviving the lean ones.<BR><BR>This webinar covers the tricky tightrope walk of investing for growth, but keeping yourself “recession-fit” so your business is resilient and nimble enough to withstand a sustained downturn. Indeed, even take advantage of it.<BR><BR>Greg has owned and run recruitment businesses through multiple recessions, has plenty of horrors stories to share, but also key advice on business mix, niche focus, client selection, cost base, recruiter skills, revenue production, margins &amp; fees and cash flow management, as well as tactics to survive once a recession actually hits, and how to manage in a downturn.</DIV>
