On this week's show, I'm joined by James Emmett, CEO and founder of Hanover Group. Having recently interviewed Anthony Pitt, President at Hanover USA, I was really excited to welcome James, the original founder, on to the show.James started the business 27 years ago and has now grown to an organisation of over hundred people across multiple international locations including both the UK and USA.The business has not only grown organically, but also has a clear acquisition strategy too. In this episode, he talks at length about his buy and build strategy.This is going to be super important for you to listen to if you are the type of organisation that wants to grow and potentially do this through a similar method. If you're a small recruitment organisation that might actually be interested in being acquired in the future then we also cover the pros and cons to the whole process.__________________________________________Hoxo MessageAre you spending hours on LinkedIn and cold outreach and want more business coming to you over your competition?
