Episode Summary

In this episode of the Digital Recruiter Podcast, Clark welcomes Charles Causey, founder of Agile Partnering, for a masterclass on contract staffing and building recurring revenue as a recruiter. Charles unpacks the role of Agile as an Employer of Record (EOR), helping solo recruiters and staffing firms make contract placements without the burden of backend logistics. From onboarding and compliance to payroll funding and invoicing, Agile takes on the heavy lifting so recruiters can focus solely on client acquisition and making placements.

The conversation breaks down why contract staffing is such a powerful growth lever, offering recurring, recession-resistant income, higher profit per placement, and a far more valuable business at exit. Charles walks through real-world examples and scenarios, explaining how recruiters can go from a single contractor to a predictable six-figure monthly gross profit with the right systems. He also shares what derails most staffing efforts: lack of time card processes, cash flow strain, legal exposure, and administrative overwhelm, all of which Agile is built to solve.

For recruiters accustomed to direct hire, this episode is a roadmap to scaling smarter. Charles shares his own entrepreneurial journey, the painful early years, and how focusing on operational excellence allowed him to support hundreds of recruiters in transforming their businesses. Whether you're a solo producer, agency owner, or W2 recruiter thinking about going out on your own, this episode offers tactical clarity and encouragement to help you take that next step without flying blind.
