Recruitment Marketing FAQs
Answering Your Questions About Main Street Recruitment
Main Street Recruitment helps manufacturers and blue-collar employers improve how they show up to skilled labor.
Most hiring challenges aren’t just about finding candidates—they’re about visibility, messaging, and how candidates experience your process. We focus on strengthening those areas so the right people see, understand, and engage with your opportunities.
We don’t replace recruiters—we help your hiring efforts work more effectively by improving visibility and building a more consistent candidate pipeline.
Let’s explore how our process works and whether we’re the right fit for your business.
Common Questions
Are you recruiters?
No. At Main Street Recruitment, we are not recruiters or headhunters.
We don’t find and contact specific individuals like traditional recruiters do. Instead, we help your company build a stronger candidate pipeline through recruitment marketing—using paid ads, content, and digital tools to attract qualified applicants over time.
Many of our clients partner us with their recruiters, so they can focus on interviews and offers while we handle visibility and engagement.
How do your fees work?
We charge a fixed monthly fee—typically between $2,500 and $15,000—based on your hiring volume and location, not a percentage of employee salaries.
Whether you hire 10 or 10,000 people, your monthly cost stays the same.
What type of organization is a good fit for Your Services?
Our recruitment marketing services are best for companies that hire at least 25 employees a year and want to build a steady, long-term talent pipeline.
Best fit:
- Businesses hiring consistently throughout the year
- Companies open to long-term recruitment marketing instead of short-term “post and pray” tactics
- Employers ready to improve visibility among passive candidates (those not actively job hunting)
Not ideal:
- Companies with short-term hiring freezes
- Firms needing quick one-time hires
If you’re forward-thinking and ready to modernize your recruiting, our approach will fit well.
How long before I see results From Recruitment Marketing?
Most clients start seeing measurable results within about 60 days after launching their recruitment marketing campaigns.
- First 30 days: We set up your campaigns, refine your employer message, and identify what makes your company a great place to work.
- Next 30 days: We test and optimize ad messaging with candidates and begin seeing applications roll in.
Recruitment marketing builds momentum over time—the longer campaigns run, the stronger your candidate pipeline becomes.
How can I monitor results?
Every client gets access to our online portal where you can track campaign performance, applicant activity, and position status in real time.
- Campaign results and analytics
- Active positions and applicant activity
- Lead and conversion metrics in real time
This transparency helps your HR or recruiting team stay aligned on what’s working.
Do you work with white-collar positions?
Usually not—our recruitment marketing strategies are built for skilled-trade and blue-collar roles rather than traditional white-collar positions.
While our tools can work for white-collar roles, they’re generally more effective for trade-based, manufacturing, or field service positions.
