Who this is for
Why recruiters run with AISS
- Built on a real desk, not in a lab. AISS runs the same plays a top biller runs, because it was built by one who still runs a desk. Not a generic automation wrapper.
- It works in your voice. Outreach and follow-up go out sounding like you, not like a bot blast. Your relationships stay yours.
- The machine takes the 30 hours, you keep the 3. Sourcing, sequencing, logging, and admin move to the engine so your week is built around conversations, not buried under them.
- Paced to what one desk can close. Not a firehose of leads. A workable handful every morning, sized to what you can actually work.
- Independent-first. Made for solo recruiters and boutique firms, the desks the enterprise tools were never built for.
How to think about daily activity the right way
- Set a daily conversation minimum you can hit every day, then defend it
- Count real conversations, not dials, as the number that matters
- Protect a fixed prime-hours block for outbound and hold it sacred
- Feed the list: warm outreach beats cold volume on the same hours
- Wrap every conversation in a follow-up sequence so none leak away
- Review the number weekly against pipeline, and adjust, do not guess
What to take away
- A number you hit daily beats a bigger number you hit sometimes.
- Quality of list determines whether volume pays off.
- Most 'I made the calls and nothing happened' is a follow-up failure, not a volume one.
Frequently asked questions
So what is the right number?
The honest answer is: the number you will actually hit every single day, on a warm list, wrapped in follow-up. Consistency and list quality move fees more than chasing a bigger dial count.
Are dials or conversations the real metric?
Conversations. Dials that never connect flatter the activity log and produce nothing. Track the conversations, and the placements track them.
Who built this
Lee Fossey has spent nearly thirty years in executive search and talent acquisition, running business development, building desks, and billing at the top of the market. AISS is the system he built to run his own desk: the BD, sourcing, sequencing, and follow-up handled by an engine in his own voice, so his hours go to the conversations that actually close. He would rather show you the desk working than sell you on it.
