In this episode I chat with Joel Lalgee, a Midwest-based recruiter and social media expert who's made a huge impact online in the recruitment world. Joel shares his journey - from starting out in recruitment with no prior experience, to building a social media presence that now spans platforms like LinkedIn, TikTok, and Instagram.
His key takeaway? Consistency with improvement is crucial. Whether it’s recruiting or creating content, Joel emphasizes the importance of showing up regularly, learning from your actions, and continuously improving. I love his message on how consistent effort, even when it's tough, leads to success over time.
Joel also dives into his content creation strategy. He talks about how his initial efforts, finding a passion for it, and how that helped him build momentum. Joel now uses social media not only for client acquisition but also for monetization, offering advice and insights to help others do the same. His journey shows how building a brand takes time, but if you stick with it and adapt, the results will come.
I appreciate Joel’s humor and authenticity. We also discuss the importance of staying true to yourself in content creation. Joel’s journey is such an inspiration for recruiters looking to carve out their own niche and leverage social media to grow their business!
Enjoy,
Sharon
