fordyce-default

Jordan Rayboy is re-defining the recruiting industry by building his virtual search business with his wife Jeska while traveling the country in their Fleetwood RV. They have been on the road since September ’06, and thus far have been to 36 states, 3 Canadian provinces, got married on the beach in Santa Barbara, and are living their dream. This interview was conducted from his RV and aside from a few technical hiccups the message is golden.

Jordan spent six years with MRI, where he was a Top-3 national producer in the Sales Consultants division in 2003 and 2004, and Top-10 worldwide producer in 2005 and 2006. He was both Regional Rookie of the Year and Regional Account Executive of the Year for the South Atlantic Region in 2001 (billing $650K his rookie year), and was Regional Account Executive of the year again in 2003 and 2004. At an age of 27 Rayboy’s career cash-in totals more than $3.8 million, and he has averaged $840k annual billings over the last four years.

Jordan says “Rayboy Insider Search (RayboyIS.com) has a simple mission- helping our clients and candidates achieve their goals by building long-term relationships based on trust, professionalism, and results. We’ve placed over 350 top sales, technical, consulting, and management executives with both large industry leaders and VC-funded startups.

Dave Staats – Big Biller, Industry Leader



fordyce-default

My friend Dave Staats is one of those people who just seems to get it. He understands that you give before you get and he freely gives of his time in any number of groups but his efforts as a board member in The Pinnacle Society and The Tennessee Recruiters Association stand out in my mind. I recently interviewed Dave for XtremeRecruiting.tv to better understand what makes him who he is as well as to pick up a tidbit or two on how a Big Biller runs his business. Although a self professed curmudgeon I find his directness, candor and above all pursuit of excellence refreshing.
