Testimonials

“We've all heard time and again how important tracking metrics is to achieving peak performance in recruiting. Jon Bartos has been setting the standard for the recruiting industry for many years, and his RPM software suite has set a new standard as well. The RPM dashboard is by far the best system I've ever seen in terms of providing a clear picture of the true health of your recruiting desk, and allowing you to accurately predict future production for yourself and your staff. As a manager, it helps me set appropriate expectations for my team to achieve THEIR personal goals, and then hold them accountable! No more guessing- the picture is right in front of you and tells the story. You want that roof-top deck? Get back on the phones and setup some more interviews!!!”

“Jon, your sessions were great! I had a number of recruiters come up to me afterward and tell me how much the liked your material, your delivery, your openness to share, and your sincerity. It was an A+. I have received emails telling me the same also. Again, thanks so much for sharing your expertise with our group, you did a wonderful job.”

Jon,

I not only enjoyed your conference in Milwaukee this spring, but I billed 71k within thirty days after attending the two days session. I attribute a great deal of that to your positive message and information packed presentation.

"I have begun implementing the ideas and processes that you suggested implementing and I can’t begin to tell you the dramatic difference I see already! I have seen many talented and successful Trainers speak, but they don’t hold a candle to you. You are very talented and very good at what you do. The results are amazing! I just wanted to say….THANK YOU! You are truly awesome!”

“Some worlds are worth entering, others less so. I can imagine no world more worthy than Jon Bartos’ World. I know, because I enjoy the rare honor of having been, for a time, one of Jon’s teachers. As a teacher, I always learn more than my students do, because students are always the best teachers. It’s a yin/yang kind of thing. I’ve served a few million dollar performers, so I can make the comparison, and I repeat… no one in the world you ever find is worthier than Jon’s. That term, “million-dollar producer,” it’s no small thing. Jon is that, and more. Jon is also something like an electric wire. If you plug in, you’ll be informed, educated, inspired and more yet, your inner demons of self-doubt and fear will be disproved. They’re just wrong, and Jon will show you that. More still. For all of us, life is a journey from one lesson to the next mission. If you enter Jon’s world, you’ll see what that progress is like when it is almost unhindered. If you ask Jon his greatest motivator, he can take you back the years to that moment, and tell you with precision. If you ask Jon his dream, he can define that with the same precision. He can then methodically but inspirationally document the steps from the past to the future; and he can help you see how you can do the same. When you leave Jon’s world, yours will be changed, for the better. Don’t wait, go right on in.”

You can bet that his newest DVD series is full of real time, practical applications, presented with a style and humor that puts Jon at the cutting edge of Recruiting Industry Presenters. There is nothing more relevant and impactful than learning from someone who "walks the talk" and has done so consistently and successfully year after year. "

“Running my search firm while traveling in an RV the past 4 years, I've visited dozens of offices. I can say without hesitation Jon Bartos is the single greatest rainmaker I've had the pleasure to work with! I found myself huddled by his door taking notes when he got on a money call, and most of his team was doing the same! The techniques and strategies that Jon employs on the phones every day can help you take your practice to the next level as well. I can't recommend Jon highly enough- not only for his content, but also for his exceptional delivery. He will keep you engaged and with a smile on your face!”

“Building a million dollar + search practice is a rare accomplishment. Growing a multi-million dollar search firm is an equally challenging achievement. Doing both simultaneously is for the record books which are exactly where you will find the name Jon Bartos. Being able to synthesize, systematize, package, and deliver that winning formula for success is exactly what Jon has done in his new DVD series. Not only is the content superb but as expected Jon’s delivery is entertaining, engaging and most critical highly educational. You can never go wrong with anything Jon offers but this set is a no brainer for anyone who quite directly wants to make more placements! “

“Jon Bartos is one of the most sought after speakers in the recruiting industry for several reasons. 1) He is a consistent $1mm per year biller, 2) he knows exactly how to communicate his success techniques to his audience so they can mimic his success if they choose, and 3) he is wildly entertaining. It is rare you get all three in one person. Investing in Jon's material is a no brainer for me!"

Jon in my opinion is one of best and most effective staffing industry coaches in the business. His programs made it easy to find the gaps in my operation and through coaching his I have been able to easily fine tune my business resulting in immediate gains. “

“As you might imagine, I get asked about testimonials often. I look at it from a slightly different perspective than most: Can Jon Bartos help the NAPS? This falls into the category of “no-brainer.” Jon consistently delivers that “no-nonsense, here’s the real scoop because I been there and done that” way of speaking and educating. “Take-aways” abound and Jon always delivers in a manner that surprises, excites, interacts and just plain engages. On the “Putting Folks in Chairs” scale (which we use for the NAPS Annual Conferences) Jon is a 10 and that’s why he comes back every year….Jon is the postman…..he delivers!”

Jon,

In addition to processing all my notes, I keep trying to think of another single presentation I have seen that was as well-rounded in terms of having ‘news I can use’ and an attitude that IS positive instead of merely being presented as such.

The idea that you can do anything you decide to do always resonate with me when I hear it from someone who has obviously done a lot more than I have done.

I am not thinking of or knocking any single person when I say it is fun to watch someone who is obviously still engaged as opposed to people who seem tired of making placements and in need of other stimulation.

Thanks for a great day! I hope to see you in Las Vegas.

Sincerely, Dave.
