The day-to-day work of recruiting can sometimes feel relentless.

How do you stay on track and not give up?

According to Rich Millington, connecting with a few close peers on the topic can really help.

Most communities (online or others) attempt to bring a large number of people together around a common topic of interest.

This approach often doesn’t lead to meaningful interactions.

The real power of an online community is to help members establish a small peer group of individuals whom they want to impress and emulate.

They need to have a private place to engage with their peers, share advice, and have a mentor who can support them.

They need to make real and strong relationships by being encouraged to speak openly about their thoughts and feelings.

If you’re in the recruiting trenches, find a few others who are fighting the same fight.

Even a simple email or chat group could give you a place to share your struggles, ideas, and successes.

You’ll be surprised how these interactions will renew your energy and give you the strength to continue the fight.
