The "Prove It" Deal - The Hirewell Hot Corner [Ep 44]

In this week's episode, Dan and Louie recap the NHL and NBA Final after they saw the Florida Panthers and Boston Celtics win their respective championships. With the ensuing "lull" in the sports world, they bring up the MLB, PGA Tour and Currently, the Copa America and Euro Cup Soccer tournaments to fill the void. The guys then dive into what they are seeing in the recruiting market and as always segue that into sports. The discussion around the "Prove It' deal came to the forefront as we chat through teams signing players to short-term, low-money deals so they can prove that they still have what it takes to compete at the highest levels for the next 2 years or so. The recruiting market lately has been similar in that clients aren't doing as many engaged searches where they pay a small upfront fee to kick off the search. Instead, we have been doing more "prove it" deals where we work strictly on a contingent basis, and proving that a small upfront fee with us is worth it for every role after the first. Stick around and listen to our favorite "prove it" deals we have seen in sports in the Two Minute Drill.
