Is all publicity really good publicity

Back in September the IRG ran a blog post publishing an email correspondence between a rec2rec and her potential client.  The rec2rec’s name wasn’t revealed in the post but was immediately published by one of the commentators.  She received a massive amount of calls and emails (mostly abusive I assume) and there were other blog posts as a result (including this one on the Contractor UK Forum).

The rec2rec was Vicki Brassington of Wen Recruitment.  She recently contacted me saying she wants to “tell her side of the story” (or re ignite the fire as I think her article here makes clear!):

This is my advice on PR and to tell readers from my own first hand experience, it is true, there is no such thing as bad Publicity. 

Throw a hand granade and run this is my advice on PR – if you have a small recruitment business and need to compete.  The Rec2Rec business Wen since the events Is too busy now to handle the number of roles and candidate enquiries. 

The reason recent events were so well publicized is because the experience was bracing.  Whether you followed the online events and were opposed or in agreement, shocked or inspired, every single reader was braced at some point.

I’ve not studied PR, I don’t know anything about marketing, but I do know that it’s human nature to recognize the unusual.

How much do companies pay on advertising in recruitment to get their brand name out there, how much time is spent.  I in the course of days took Wen Rec2Rec and my name Vicki Brassington to a household name within recruitment agencies.   Not just across the country but worldwide. 

Recruiters are sat about debating me and the entire time indirectly are  advertising Wen Rec2Rec.

I pick up the phone now to talk to candidates and potential clients and literally everyone I speak to knows me and wants to discuss the events which makes my day a little bit more entertaining than it used to be.  The different views are fascinating.   Through the course of events I also have a recruiter fans of TeamVicki’s, I receive messages from people in Australia and other countries who know about Vicki Brassington and Wen.

You can no longer thrive as a small recruitment company in a big pond with traditional marketing methods.    You are a pebble in the ocean,  and so many small recruitment agencies die because of this, because no one really knows who they are.

You must throw the hand grenade and f*king run! 

Yes Vicki has lost some clients from this but is now busier than ever before; having made placements as a DIRECT result of the coverage.  It appears that recruiters aren’t so fussy who they deal with as long as they have access to the right candidates/roles and can get the job done!

  1. I wouldn’t want to pile on the inevitable abuse Vicki has received from many in the industry so far. However….

    Vicki says that she hasn’t studied PR, and doesn’t know anything about marketing, but really hopes that being publicly embarrassed in this way will somehow be good for business. I seriously doubt that being shown to be unprofessional, conniving, untrustworthy and indiscreet will endear her to recruitment agency clients and recruiter candidates, who need to insist upon absolute probity in any recruitment exercises.

    If a recruiter really does represent their clients, then (from what I’ve read above) I’m afraid it would be a poor agency or candidate who would choose to be in the hands of Miss Brassington.

    1. Lady X

      I didn’t say anything about “really hopes” you are putting words in my mouth.Stephen, I say the PR has been good for business. And I also was not embarrassed maybe you felt embarrassed reading it but I didn’t.

      1. Lady X

        Recruitment Agencies want a quality recruiter and unfortunately there is a shortage of this, most other rec2rec’s will simply wack out an advert on total jobs and get a load of crap candidates out of work. I go that extra mile and call people in work that are passive, that are good at what they do, and that is why people do business with me, not idiot’s like you who read something and make comments about subjects you have no expertise on. does that make sense?

          1. Billie Graham

            Stephen, you really should pipe down about an industry you have no expertise on *sniggers* haha! Oh dear “Vicki Brassington of Wen recruitment”, almost sounds regal, as it’s International day of happiness I’ll allow you to be happy in your dream world. I did not know of you before this saga, but what I do now know is that you are very unprofessional. Go the extra mile and call people at work? Recruiters have been doing that for years darling, get over yourself.

          2. LADY X

            yeah they may have been, but most are shit at it, it’s not just about picking up the phone, you’ve got to have some skill! and most rec2rec’s are too lazy to take the time to perfect that skill, they’d rather be sat watching Eastenders, which is why 20% of sales people in any business bring in 80% of the sales.

          3. Lady X

            i don’t no how to do this blog things properly think this is in the wrong bit. I could turn up at a clients office tomorrow in a fucking chicken suit and bob geldoff wigg, with the CV of a £200K biller and they’d still take him on, and if you don’t believe that you are naive, people want to make money in business, and if you have what they need if what you have can add value to there business they’ll want it.

    2. Lady X

      I missed that bit about “untrustworthy” and I resent that comment, because it is completely false – what exactly are you basing this on? because it’s complete rubbish – people like you stephen are a disgrace to the industry you embarrass yourself sitting on here calling someone you have not once spoken with or engaged with as untrustworthy. spreading baseless slanderous comments on a persons character. how do you know without ever once speaking with me that I am untrustworthy? I have had 35 years living with myself and I can tell you I am trustworthy. you’re pathetic! fat mess

    3. Lady X

      conniving! what a joke, you know nothing about me, to write someone you don’t know you’ve never spoken to , to be conniving and untrustworhty which couldn’t be any further from the truth of who I am, you are dick to write that about someone you don’t know – why don’t you do us all a favour and get some hairgrow! bald pleb

  2. I don’t have a problem as such, with Vicky Brassington in all of this, I think it is indicative of a bad industry with no moral value or care for the people they are dealing with.
    Vicky is just feeding off that.

    If Vicky’s recruitment to recruitment business is enhanced by the fact she is foul-mouthed and crude on business networking channels, and in conversation – then shame on you, recruitment industry.
    There are many rec2recs who act with greater discretion and integrity who deserve far more rewards, but sadly as we know, often the most successful recruiters are the most crooked.
    The fact that recruitment businesses `as far as Sydney` choose to use Ms Brassington is to their eternal discredit, moreso than Vicky’s.

    P.S. Yes, Stephen O’Donnell knows nothing about recruitment… 😉

  3. I had this article tweeted to me by Lady X / Vicki Brassington less than an hour ago; she doesn’t follow me nor has she engaged with me before. She has also sent the same tweet to a number of others in recruitment.

    Talk about knowing nothing about marketing / PR.. seems like Lady X knows quite a bit..

    Unfortunately, the speculative job emails I receive to my personal account are all the same with no ‘hook’ for me to bother to read.. the horror stories I have heard from other consultants is enough for me not to touch them with a barge pole anyway.

    Recruiters may be debating Vicki Brassington from Wen but I certainly haven’t heard from #TeamVicki. I don’t think that “succès de scandale” is the way for this particular recruiter to redeem herself..

    #RecruitmentLife

    1. Lady X

      there has just been a TEAMVICKI tweeted publically on my twitter account so not sure what you are talking about,but it’s there unless you’re blind as well as a jealous hater, , the very second I put this link on linkedin I immediately got a TEAMVICKI emailed to me from a fan – you should wish you were as popular one day.dogbreath..

      1. Unfortunately Vicki I don’t sit glued to your twitter feed waiting for pearls of wisdom. You’re right though – you have had someone come out on #TeamVicki’s side.

        Dogbreath am I? Good to know how much you value your prospective candidates..!

        We’ve actually spoken on the telephone a grand total of twice in two years; you’ve not understood what I’m looking for and continue to send me emails for jobs all over the place and in some utterly ridiculous industries I have no experience of.

        Take your own advice and actually speak to your candidates.. you might get a better rep in the industry if you do so and start matching better.

        1. Lady X

          pearls of wisdom lol speak to my candidates? are you crazy, I’m on the phone from 1pm – 8pm all weekend, when you are likely in bed recovering from a hangover, I work till 1am every day, booking interviews and the rest, and I’m on the phone all day during the week, just another person making crap up saying they know me or have spoken with me. am going for some camomile tea, you and the rest of you sit here and make lies up, makes you feel important. you all seem to know me better than I know myself ,allegedly

          1. I’ve had 18 unsolicited emails from you since the start of the year.. they all start exactly the same way:

            “Hi X,

            Hope you’re well! J

            I’ve just had this role in thought may be of interest: –

            blah blah blah

            Many thanks and kind regards

            Vicki Brassington”

            I don’t dislike you, I’m not a nasty person. But I’m not the one calling people dogbreath, fat mess, bald pleb, etc.

            And if you’re on the phone so much how have you not managed to put one call across to me in 3 months? Clearly I’m a candidate you want otherwise you wouldn’t be bombarding me with emails about roles I’m not interested in.

            To add to the cliches being bandied around on this blog, perhaps you need to “work smarter, not harder”.

          2. Lady X

            look how many passive recruitment consultant candidates do you think we have on our database? theres more than 30,000 so you not getting a call in 3 months is a ridiculous comment we can’t get through everyone in addition to handling all the referrals that come through etc.. . odds are you are also a low biller, because you have no focus, you choose to spend your time on here trying to harm someone who is clearly very successful at recruitment, rather than taking your own advice and getting on the fucking phone. Without knowing who you are, I am guessing we spoke with you, you divulged you were billing less than £100K per year (aka as crap) and we were not able to help you. At which point you are now resentful of me (and likely all rec2rec’s), it’s not my fault, clients want recruiters who can add value to there business, I can’t place you if you have no value. I’m not carrying on with this because I feel like I’m having a conversation with a chipanzee.

  4. I’m not sure what the
    crime is here, but given that’s it’s the recruitment industry I’m pretty sure
    there’s a queue of wannabe’s out there willing to waste their time gossiping
    about it. Well done to Vicki Brassington for recognizing that we live in an age
    wherein the OK magazine and Sun newspaper make up much of the literary diet of
    the UK population and that she can harness the crazy world of gossipbook and twitter
    to improve her own notoriety.

  5. Richard Black

    @Steve Ward “indicative of a bad industry with no moral value or care for the people they are dealing with” – Such a tired, moralistic, holier-than-thou, know-nothing, self -serving line.

    I am sick to death of every recruiter saying “I am the good guy, it’s the rest of them giving us all a bad name”. Listen to yourself; “shame on you” . Really Steve?

    I’ve no idea what your motivation is for acting like a judgmental queen, casting aspersions across an entire industry, but if it’s self promotion then in my opinion: Fail.

    1. Richard, no – I have no cause for self-promotion – nothing to sell or promote – I’m just a recruiter merely commenting on a blog I was drawn to, about a person who brings the industry into a form of disrepute. (in the opinion of many)

      Tired is it? I don’t think so.
      Moralistic? Well… why not?
      Know-Nothing? Well, sure, Stephen O’Donnell AND me, both clearly now know nothing about the industry.
      Judgmental Queen? I’m not the one calling someone a muppet. I’m just applying a little decency to the recruitment table.

      If I get baited for suggesting we raise the bar a little in our industry, than maybe my comments were justified…

      1. Richard Black

        All I am saying is that whenever there is a debate about recruitment practices, there is always someone carping on and making out they are the best of a bad industry. It’s lazy and it’s boring and it offers nothing to a debate.

        1. Richard, surely shouldn’t we be striving to be better at what we do? Blogs like this do no good to our industry reputation.
          It’s not about ‘do-goodness’ it’s about meeting clients’ demands, as last time I checked, they paid my bills.

          1. Richard Black

            Yes, Steve, we should be striving to be better at what we do. And yes, clients pay the bills and we should meet their demands. Got any more priceless insights? How about “don’t forget to breathe” ?

  6. Have to challenge some of the typical diatribe levelled at the Recruitment Industry whenever something arises that conveniently enables sweeping generalisation. “Indicative of a bad industry with no moral value or care for the people they are dealing with” Unclear whether this is reference to entire recruitment industry or just rec to rec. I am not after a recruitment job in defending rec to recs, but I dealt with one when looking to leave Hays and he was fantastic throughout.

    Please define “bad” as opposed to good? Is helping someone get a new job a bad thing? Is helping a company fill a difficult role they are unable to fill themselves a bad thing? – This is the essence of what recruitment is and I cannot see anything wrong with these intentions. Moral value and care are subjective viewpoints and I imagine not shared by aforementioned candidates and clients who have received good service and had a significant part of their life improved through finding/filling a job.

    “There are many rec2recs who act with greater discretion and integrity who deserve far more rewards, but sadly as we know, often the most successful recruiters are the most crooked”,

    Often the most successful? I can’t work out what this means as often and most are quite different in terms of strengthof meaning. Either way I cannot believe the most successful rec 2 recs are the most crooked in an industry where repeat business, reputation, service, delivery and integrity are key to success. So sadly I do not know, nor accept ridiculous, sweeping accusations.

    I think rec to rec and rec con bashing is easy prey and possibly some form of carthartic revenge for all the abuse rec cons get when doing business development.

      1. And I am with you 100% too Richard. Plus I have added a useful new word to my vocalulary – do-goodyness, must use that this week! It’s bad enough with all the detractors from outside the industry, could do without doing it to each other.

  7. Jeremy

    If you didn’t click on the link in Louise’s blog to the Contractor UK Forum the comments are excellent and bring some sensibility and massive humour to the whole conversation.

    I read more blogs than I comment on. I ummed and arr’d about commenting on this one. I think that too many people comment in direct response to out smart or out manoeuvre someone else and there is not enough commenting to actually clarify and understand other commentators before engaging in any form of influence on their beliefs and thought processes. This is, in my professional opinion, the biggest failing in the recruitment industry. Too many practitioners listening waiting to retort or respond and not enough focus on listening to understand. I expect I will get an immediate response from some of “I’m not like that” and I am sure some of them are right.

    I would bet I am part of a very small minority of people in the thread to have spoken to vicki. I knew who she was and her reputation when we started talking. I decided to listen and understand her better before I could ever think I could give her any advice to “change” her or tell her what she should or should not do.

    I am sure she is reading this – the email I promised you is on the way.

    1. All good comments as ever Jeremy, and with your specialism, I’m pleased that you have taken time to dig a little deeper. I’m afraid the truth is that the many of us do not, and take reputation as an indicator.
      As per the blog title, it’s questionable whether reputation matters for the rec 2 rec market. It’s a tough market, and only those who genuinely deliver succeed. Vicki is one of those. Fair play. If that means foul-mouthed diatribe and ridiculous LinkedIn posts with content about men, that we just don’t want to hear about – and if her clients are happy with that, then who I am to argue.

      In relation to many of the comments here, and the references in defence of the industry. I wasn’t referring to the rec2rec industry, I was referring to the recruitment industry who are happy to use Vicki and thing financial delivery is everything. I’m not making my own ‘doo-goody’ rules, listen to your client market. The pattern of recruiting behaviour is changing to inhouse because increasingly, as an industry we are not delivering.
      You might say ‘delivering’, is doing what is necessary, raising an invoice, and pocketing the cash.
      I say delivering is more long term than that. It’s making yourself indispensable, because you deliver on all levels, as well as the client could do so themselves. Last time I checked, my clients don’t recruit with the kind of disregard that Vicki chooses to do so about people in her candidate and client market.

      Move beyond transaction recruitment, into reputation recruitment. It might do the market perception of our industry some good.
      If you care.

      1. Richard Black

        Steve you cannot help yourself – yet more bland commentary and weak assertions about long term delivery and client retention – which everybody has heard a million times since entering the industry. If you manage a team or a business I pity those who report to you if this is representative of your approach.

        “I say delivering is more long term than that. It’s making yourself indispensable”

        This is the equivalent of a football coach saying:

        “I say we need to score goals without conceding any”.

        I’ve skimmed through your posts.You strike me as a appointed expert recycling the training manual.

        I wouldn’t go about my business the way Vicki does, but it’s obvious that she can cut through the c**p like a hot knife through butter to expose the weak and a cast aside the BS’ers and wannabes. Frankly the industry is awash with average consultants. Let them go to internal recruitment.

        1. Ha, Richard – I am anything but training manual. (that’s the most offensive thing anyone has said to me in all this, haha 😉 )
          We’re just not going to agree on this. We play by different rules maybe, but as long as we get to the same end – then in effect there’s issue.
          For me, reputation matters. I guess I want my client and candidate market to post decent stuff about me, respect my work, and recommend me – rather than that have the sort of reputation Ms Brassington has acquired for herself, regardless of what she can do with a hot knife. But then I have a 100% recommendation job, candidate and client pipeline. That’s my core model.
          It’s not about being average, it’s not about me being better than anyone else here – because that’s not the case. It’s about playing the game professionally.
          I’m astonished recruiters here are openly and publicly debating that point.

          1. Richard Black

            This blog was about Vicki’s assertion that there is no such thing as bad PR. What I take exception to is that you jumped all over it with self-serving, stating-the-blindingly-obvious, no-impact noise.

            “For me, reputation matters” – Thought provoking stuff.

          2. Guest

            I would like to promote the services I offer as a recruitment consultant by making myself look good through slating the “rest of the industry”. Inadvertently through criticising the rest of the recruitment industry and suggsting this is the reason companies go inhouse – (not going there any further than that) I am blissfully unaware that I am devaluing my own recruitment service.

            I can’t wait for that phone to start ringing with dozens of clients falling over themselves to contact the only recruitment consultant in the UK who has integrity, listens and delivers.

            In case you can’t tell I’m being sarcastic.

            In case you can’t tell I’m being sarcastic. Get a job, find the right candidate, fill the job – tell the truth and deliver, lots of ways to shine in this industry – slating the industry and focusing on negatives is not one of them in my opinion.

          4. Lady X

            I think that post just about says it all, I’m not sure this is even about recruitment anymore, Steve was on here straight away ready to attack a woman,big tough guy, as soon as a man argues back he runs off with his tail between his legs like a COWARD. if I had been a man none of this would have got as far as it did, I am utterly disgusted with all the so called men involved in the attacks, which is the majority. out of the 3000 harassment calls I received and all the abusive voicemail messages only 2 were from women, the rest were men. you are a bunch of animals! on here posing as professionals, with deep seated resentment for women, using this as a smokescreen to air your prejudice

          5. 1. It doesn’t matter whether you are a man or a woman. Simple. Not sure where you get that thought from?
            2. I have replied to men who `argued back`.
            3. This is not a story anymore. The rest of us moved on from this blog 4/5 days ago.

            Thanks Vicky, like I say, I don’t have a personal issue with you – I hope you are great at what you do. I’m merely referring to reputation issues which keep rearing their head. I don’t know you, so I can’t be personal, and won’t call you the names you’ve chosen to call people – that do nothing to enhance that image.

            I was merely commenting on a blog. I’m done with it now. I have a business to run.

          6. Lady X

            I just want to say speaking to some of you trolls is exasperating, it’s like talking with people that are mentally retarded. Steve just look, look at all the men on here and all the previous blogs, and the mass of linkedin comments etc.. thats where the thought has come from. That and I can tell you I received over 3000 harrassment calls in 2 weeks from recruiters, we had to get the police involved and when the numbers were traced the disproportionate majority were men. You have no idea what it’s like being a woman in business, a lot of men (not all) do resent women, there are still alot of men who think women should be behind the kitchen sink with a pair of marigolds. You don’t know my reputation do you? you read a few things and blindly believed it, you are like a lamb steve, do you not have the capacity of free thought. I’ve over 10 years experience placing recruiters, do you honestly believe if I weren’t an expert at it I’d have lasted this long, try and use your brain and read between the lines. Just because it’s in print doesn’t make it the gospel. My reputation is one of having skill at Rec2Rec and that comes merely from not sitting at home with my thumb up my ass watching eastenders in my spare time.

  8. shame_on_Wen

    More ravings from someone who seems to have a loose grasp of reality. I would avoid Ms Brassington and Wen like the plague. Why is she still in the industry after what she’s done? I’m surprised that it seems no-one has reported her to the police.

  9. Lady X

    someone has just messaged me about working smarter not harder, I work smarter and harder double wammy!! no one said you can’t do both, you can do whatever the hell you want, this is your life, live it, it’s not a fucking dress rehearsal

  10. Based on her contributions to this thread alone, I think there’s a pretty good chance that Vicki is an idiot. Whether she delivers or not, life’s too short to knowingly do business with idiots.

    And anyway, there is no such thing as delivery in R2R, other than delivering revenue to the R2R business. R2R is little more than a spot-trading activity.

    Actually delivering on a R2R assignment is really tough work. I know because I’ve done it recently, and the experience hasn’t generated any new found respect for R2Rs.

    That’s because they never HAVE to fill any recruitment role. That’s what delivery actually means – having to do stuff.

  11. Mark R

    This is really interesting! When Vicki isn’t specing candidates to my employer who would potentially replace me then days like today when she is tapping my colleagues and I up directly on our works emails with exactly the same email about how all other rec 2 rec consultants are ex bartenders and waitresses, ‘very classy’. Brassington is not just a clever name, she really is…

    BRASSY !!!

  12. An abused recipient

    Thanks for your insightful post along with the link to another blog which details this trail of abuse from what all I can describe is a psychotic insecure individual who has no respect for the industry she is working in.

    One of my staff recently received such email at about 23:00 on a Saturday evening to which she politely replied please can you unsubscribe me from your mailing list, a further reply from the sender turned into some form of attack on my company and I am totally shocked at the senders behaviour.

    There must be some form of industry body, association that can take action towards this kind of behaviour andy advise or guidance on any other company dealing with such issues would be appreciated.

  13. Peripheral Observer

    I guess people use her because they know anyone she registers can deliver a certain amount of revenue per annum and if you are a business who have been going through a lean path and she offers you a proven £200K biller then people will take the candidate and pay her and if they deliver then its money well spent regardless of what you think of her.

  14. Not funny

    I don’t think any of this is funny. I have looked at VB’s behaviour online and it strikes me that she is not very well. There are many signs of mania on display that indicates some form of bi-polar or manic-depressive illness. This is no laughing matter and I am not writing this out of spite. I hope she gets the help she needs.

  15. David Jones

    Vicki you utter worthless recruiter, Get your head down you clearly should of been out of recruitment a long time ago, go back to working in Mcdonalds or retails – Better yet try HR.

  16. candidate of vicki's

    Vicki is a Rec2Rec that I have actually enjoyed hearing from
    & working with. I am Australian & required a company to sponsor me in
    order for me to continue my career in the UK. This challenge did not deter
    Vicki in the slightest & I was genuinely surprised & very impressed
    with how quickly she had arranged a number of interviews for me. She was so supportive, gave excellent
    interview preparation & always made sure her support of me was known.

    Vicki is professional as well as personable & genuinely
    a fun person to talk to.

    Vicki has a real knack of knowing her clients &
    candidates inside out & as far as my situation went, she found companies
    that couldn’t have suited me better.

    I would recommend Vicki to recruiters looking for work as
    well as any businesses who haven’t been able to find the right candidate for
    them, Vicki will be able to get that person for you.

    In the short time I have required Vicki’s recruitment
    services, to find me a new position, I have been pleased with all the help and
    guidance I was given before my interview.

    Once the interview was over, she calmed down my nerves with
    her knowledge of the client.

    She closed the client and got me the best offer without any
    pressure on me which was just what I needed.

    Thank you for all your help.

    I get contacted a lot by rec-to-recs and head hunters, it is
    inevitable in the recruitment game.

    We all know how it works, it is nearly like there is a
    formula or a script that ‘most’ R2R’s seem to use, and it’s a little passé if I
    am to be honest.

    Vicki is different. She is unique, she has a good sense of
    humour and she is far from your stock standard cliché’ rec to rec highlighting
    that her client has ‘specifically’ asked her to contact me.

    To be fair, I’ve only known Vicki for about 6 months, but
    she connects with you instantly, takes a real interest in who you are and what
    you like on a personal level.

    I’ve not needed Vicki to recruit me personally; however she
    drops in a call or email anyway, and sincerely calls to see how I am – Not just
    work talk! This is how it is done guys!

    Vicki builds a really nice relationship fast. Built on
    trust, consistency and delivering on what she promises and she is just FUN.

    Without her asking, I referred a friend to her looking for
    recruitment work and within a week she had placed him into what he told me was
    his ‘dream job’, perfectly matching his experience and HIS NEEDS to one of her
    clients.

    Not surprisingly, Vicki has delivered on her promise to pay
    me a considerably healthy referral fee (the highest I have ever come across),
    on the date the she promised which was only shortly after the placement.

    Yes the referral fee is fantastic and it gets paid! Moreover
    though, quickly it becomes second nature to refer to Vicki regardless of the
    money, because she treats you like a real person and does the right thing by
    all concerned, you, your referral, and clearly her client.

    I strongly urge you to let Vicki play a part in your
    recruitment career, for whatever reason; if you are looking for your next role;
    wanting to refer a friend into recruitment, or; if you are a client looking for
    someone who will deliver on what they promise, provide honesty, sincerity, a
    great sense of humour and put your needs first – Stick Vicki in your contacts now,under ‘My rec-2-rec.’
