My name is Joe Markey. I’ve spent the last 20 years helping companies of all shapes and sizes make the right hires and avoid painful, costly recruiting mistakes.
I wasn’t always the go-to expert for hiring top talent, though. Like most entrepreneurs, I started out relying on instinct and hoping for the best. I learned the hard (and expensive) way what a bad hire really costs. Through starting and growing my own home service based small business (Monster Tree Service) I’ve seen firsthand how the wrong hire can slow down a business, drain team morale, and burn through cash.
I quickly realized that I wasn’t the only small business owner struggling with this problem and knew that there had to be a better way. So by leveraging my experience and partnering with some of the best hiring organizations in the world, I found it.
Since then, I’ve built recruiting systems for all kind of businesses. From some of the fastest-growing venture backed startups in the U.S., to family run plumbing companies trying to hire their first outside employee. I’ve led executive searches, trained internal hiring teams, developed repeatable frameworks, and helped countless of small businesses reduce their time-to-hire while dramatically improving candidate fit and retention.
We’ve all heard the horror stories, and yes, hiring can be nightmare, but I’m here to tell you: IT DOESN’T HAVE TO BE THAT WAY! You don't need a huge budget, a full-time recruiter, or years of experience to build a world-class team. You just need the right framework.
And that's precisely why I created Never Make a Bad Hire Again!, a simple, practical 10-day course designed to help busy business owners, founders, and hiring managers develop an effective hiring process. That once you learn, can be leveraged time and time again to effectively grow your team and bottom line.
You’ll learn how to consistently attract, assess, and hire the right candidates. No fluff. No filler. You'll receive battle-tested strategies, ready-to-use templates, and expert guidance based on decades of hands-on experience.
Since launching my business and sharing this framework, I’ve helped hundreds of businesses avoid bad hires, cut recruiting time in half, and hire with confidence. Now, I’m making this knowledge available to everyone.
I can't wait for you to dive in! Rest assured, I'll be in the course community, answering questions and helping you every step of the way.
