• He’s been a Network Member for more than 26 years.
• He’s made 107 Network placements.
• He’s a Million Dollar Producer in the Network, joining an exclusive club of recruiters who have earned that distinction.

And now, Larry is sharing the Largest Split Fee of the Month Award in Top Echelon Network for the month of December!

And Larry is sharing this award with another tenured Network Member, Mark Udulutch, CPC of Markent Personnel. Mark has also reached a handful of milestones during his time in the Network:

• He’s been a Network Member for nearly 30 years.
• He’s made 95 Network placements. (Only five more to go!)
• His cash-in total through the Network is more than $760K.

So congratulations to Larry and Mark for making this placement and for earning the Largest Split Fee of the Month Award for December!

Top Echelon determines the monthly and quarterly winners of its Network split fee recruiting awards in four distinct categories:

1.) Recruiter of the Month
2.) Largest Split Fee of the Month
3.) Recruiter of the Quarter
4.) Largest Split Fee of the Quarter

We only announce the winners of these awards in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog. We do so usually (but not always) in the issue following the conclusion of each month and/or quarter.

After it not happening pretty much EVER, it has now happened two months in a row.

First, Top Echelon Network Member Shree Kumar of Max Populi, LLC beat Trey Cameron of the Cameron Craig Group for Recruiter of the Month honors.

Now, Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search, Inc. has done the same!

In truth, Steve has been the Network recruiter who has come the closest to dethroning Trey in terms of monthly recognition within TE. In fact, for the last several years, Trey has been the #1 recruiter in the Network and Steve has consistently been #2 on a yearly basis.

For the record, we fully expect Trey to bounce back and be his usual dominating self in 2020. For now, though, somebody other than Trey Cameron has won the Recruiter of the Month Award for two straight months.

So congratulations to Steve Kohn, the other recruiters below, and everybody who made placements in Top Echelon Network during the month of December!

If YOU want to make more money through Top Echelon’s split fee recruiting network, contact Director of Network Operations, Drea Codispoti, CPC/CERS.

Top Echelon determines the monthly and quarterly winners of its split recruiting awards based upon two criteria, which are listed below in order of importance:

1.) The number of split placements made
2.) The amount of “cash-in” dollars earned as a result of those split placements

This explains why, when multiple recruiters are tied with the same number of TE placements during a given month or quarter, the recruiter with the largest “cash-in” total is ultimately deemed the winner.

The New Year is here! That means more recruiting agencies will be joining Top Echelon Network in 2020.

But what about 2019? Great question. And we have an answer. Specifically, we have the last new Network Members for 2019.

A total of 11 agencies joined our recruiting network during the month of December. So once again, we hit double digits in terms of new monthly Membership.

As you can see, our 11 new Network agencies are listed below. As always, please welcome these agencies—and the recruiters who are part of these agencies—to Top Echelon. At the very least, send them an email.

If they work in your areas of specialization, give them a call. You never know. You could make split placements with them!

We run the names of recruiting agencies applying for Membership in the Members’ Area of the Top Echelon website. We list the names of new Network agencies, as well.

However, we also list our new Members in The Pinnacle Newsletter Blog. This list typically includes the name of the agency, the join date of the agency, the geographic location of the agency, and the agency’s specialties. These agencies work in a variety of industries and niches.

So I’d like to take this moment to congratulate the agencies listed below. I also welcome them to the Membership and look forward to helping them make splits in the Network!

If you have any questions about reaching out to new Members or about your split recruiting Membership in general, please contact me. My contact information is listed at the end of this blog post.

Markent Personnel

Fitzpatrick & Associates

• 180 Network placements
• $1,587,325 cash-in

Adel-Lawrence Associates
