It was once said that “a tie is like kissing your sister.” We can thank Navy football coach Eddie Erdelatz for that little gem (and whatever mental imagery that goes along with it). And that’s all I’ll say about that.
However, I will say a little more about ties. That’s because we have a tie for Recruiter of the Month in Top Echelon Network for July!
Well, sort of . . .
When a tie is not a tie
Steve Kohn of Affinity Executive Search has been chasing Trey Cameron of Cameron Craig Group for the last few years. As a duo, they’ve sat perched atop the Network in terms of rolling cash-in dollars.
And invariably, they’ve been first and second, respectively, when it comes to Recruiter of the Month. Steve did beat Trey for the award once, but that was for the month of December 2015. So Steve has been waiting a long time for a kiss. And now this.
Both Trey and Steve made nine split placements in the Network during the month of July. However, Trey had the higher cash-in dollar amount for his nine splits (see below). That means—you guessed it—Trey wins the tiebreaker.
But because of Steve’s dogged persistence and relentless production in the face of insurmountable odds, we are prepared to name him and Trey “Co-Recruiters of the Month” for the month of July. Sometimes, you just have to pucker up.
Congratulations to everybody on the list below! And congratulations to everybody who made Top Echelon placements during the month of July!

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.
