Aaron Wallis Sales Recruitment

👀 Posting a job ad and hoping the right person applies? That's not a hiring strategy. It's a gamble.

For start-ups, every hire is make-or-break. The right person accelerates growth. The wrong one slows everything down.

That's why working with a recruiter makes sense:
⚡ Faster access to candidates who are start-up ready
⚡ Quality over quantity; we know who will thrive, not just survive
⚡ Time back for founders to focus on product, growth & fundraising

In the early days, hiring isn't about filling seats. It's about building foundations.

Why choose a specialist sales recruiter over a generalist?

Because we live and breathe sales. While generalists spread wide, we go deep — understanding the unique challenges, targets, and personalities that make top salespeople thrive.

Here's what sets us apart:
🎯 Precision
We know what "great" looks like in sales, not just "qualified."

📈 Insight
We track market trends and talent movement in real time.

🤝 Networks
We've spent years building trusted relationships with high-performing sales pros — many aren't on the market.

✅ Relevance
Every CV is vetted against real-world sales metrics and cultural fit.

If you're hiring in sales, don't settle for generic. Hire with confidence, hire with focus.

Let's talk if you're ready to take the guesswork out of sales recruitment.

As we witness the increasing presence of e-scooters and e-bikes on UK roads, it's crucial to acknowledge the complexities surrounding their legal use. Recent findings highlight the need for caution in advertising these trendy modes of transport.

Here are some key points to consider:

- Privately Owned E-Scooters: It's illegal to use these on public land, including roads and parks. Misleading advertisements suggesting otherwise can lead to significant repercussions. A case in point is a YouTube ad by Currys Group Ltd in 2022, which was deemed misleading for implying legal use of e-scooters in public spaces.

- Electric Bikes (E-Bikes): Ads need to correctly classify e-bikes as Electrically Assisted Pedal Cycles (EAPCs). Misclassification can mislead consumers regarding legal obligations like licensing and insurance. In 2023, ads by G-force and Cyrusher Outdoors Sporting Ltd faced scrutiny for not informing consumers about the necessary legal requirements.

- Environmental Claims: While promoting the green benefits of e-scooters and e-bikes is enticing, these claims must be backed with robust evidence. Ads should avoid suggesting that these modes of transport are completely free from environmental impact.

Navigating these legal and ethical boundaries is not only responsible but also builds trust with your audience. For tailored advice on creating compliant ads, consider leveraging expert resources such as the ASA's Copy Advice team.
