Kimberly Laipple was a single mom at 18 who was told she would never get a degree. She survived foreclosure, fed her kids through food banks, and poured herself into a recruiting desk at Scientific Search. Eighteen years later she is president of that same firm, a $1.4 million personal biller, and one of only 80 recruiters admitted to the Pinnacle Society, where she serves as vice president of the board. In this episode she breaks down the inner work that took her from years stuck at $550K to her first million dollar year, the Mr. Miyagi deal she makes with every new recruiter, the repeatable process behind back to back $100K months, and the path she used to climb from recruiter to president: prove yourself, then ask for it. If you are sitting at a plateau and blaming the market, this one will challenge you in the best way.
