When David Shamula, founder and CEO of Outbound Partners, came to HireUA, hiring had become one of the biggest obstacles to his company’s growth.
Outbound Partners is a sales development agency that uses high-volume cold email campaigns to help its clients attract new customers.
As the business expanded, David needed an experienced Inbox Manager who could take ownership of an essential part of its operations.
The Challenge
Before working with us, David searched for candidates through LinkedIn, Indeed, Upwork, OnlineJobs.ph, social media, and several recruitment funnels.
Although these channels generated many applications, reviewing and evaluating them required significant time. Even with different filters in place, the company struggled to identify qualified talent.
As the business continued to grow, hiring became a bottleneck that prevented the team from moving forward.
“I’ve never encountered such a mind-melting task as hiring. It completely inhibited our growth.”
Our Approach
We managed the candidate sourcing and initial screening process, presenting David with a selection of qualified professionals.
Our team coordinated the interviews around his schedule and remained responsive throughout the process. Although only one candidate could be selected, David found every person we presented highly skilled and suitable for the position.
“Everyone you proposed was extremely talented and a great candidate.”
The company ultimately hired Cole as its new Inbox Manager.
The Result
Bringing Cole into the business removed a significant amount of work from David’s plate and eliminated the hiring bottleneck that had been holding the company back.
Cole’s experience and understanding of the role allowed David to redirect his attention toward other areas of the business.
With the position successfully filled, Outbound Partners could begin growing again.
“Bringing on Cole was a life changer for us. It completely unblocked our company and opened up growth again.”
Although David could not provide an exact number of hours or dollars saved, the business experienced clear results:
- David recovered valuable time
- A major operational role was successfully filled
- The company’s hiring bottleneck was removed
- Outbound Partners returned to growth
- The business generated additional revenue
- David gained more time to focus on higher-level priorities
Following the success of this placement, David plans to hire more team members through HireUA.
“I would recommend HireUA with absolute confidence. The team is very reliable, and everyone they presented was extremely talented.”
By finding the right Inbox Manager, we helped Outbound Partners move past a major constraint and create the operational capacity needed for continued growth.
