Season 8 | Ep17 Jordan Shlosberg: Using tech, branding & social selling to drive revenue

Introducing the Top 100 most influential recruiters on LinkedIn...

This week, I am re-joined by Jordan Shlosberg, founder of Atlas, for an unmissable episode of The RAG Podcast.

Since we last spoke in September, Atlas – the world’s first AI-powered CRM for recruiters – has skyrocketed to nearly £1M ARR in just 9 months! 

But this episode isn’t just about AI: it’s about how recruiters can leverage technology, brand building, and social selling to drive real revenue.

 Here’s what we cover:

•  How AI is reshaping recruitment CRMs & why voice tech is the future.
•  The Atlas x Hoxo Top 100 – ranking the most socially engaged recruitment leaders.
•  Why personal branding & social selling aren’t just buzzwords – they drive real business growth.
•  How the most successful recruiters are using content to generate inbound leads.
•  The power of consistency – why audience building is a long-term game with massive payoffs.

If you’re in recruitment and want to understand how AI, branding, and content can transform your business, this one’s for you!

Episode Sponsor: Atlas

Your memory isn’t perfect. So Atlas remembers everything for you. 

Atlas is an end-to-end recruitment platform built for the AI generation. It automates your admin so you can focus on the business tasks that matter. 

How many conversations do you have every day? With clients. Candidates. Your team. Service providers.

Now how many of those conversations can you recall with 100% accuracy? How many hours a week do you spend making notes to try and retain as much as possible? And how much is still getting lost along the way? 

Traditional CRM systems weren’t built for the type of recruitment business you’re running right now. 

They were built to rely on the structured, tagged, categorised, and formal data you could feed it. Manual processes that needed you to input specific information, based on specific questions and answers. 

But what about all the other conversations you’re having every single day? 

Atlas isn’t an ATS or a CRM. It’s an Intelligent Business Platform that helps you perform 10X better than you could on your own. 

How? 

By removing all your low value tasks, acting as your perfect memory, and providing highly relevant recommendations to impact your performance.
