How staffing lead referral software works
Earshot is the lead intelligence network for staffing firms — built around SMS, the one channel every field worker already uses. Here's how a single overheard conversation becomes a placement that pays for the platform for a year.
From a 60-second text to a closed placement
No new apps. No portals. No change management. Earshot runs quietly in the background of how your staffing firm already operates.
1. Enroll your field workers
Upload a CSV of your contractors and field workers. Each receives a personal welcome text. No app downloads, no logins, no onboarding meetings.
2. Workers text a tip to a shared number
Any time they hear about an opening, a competitor losing a contract, or a hiring freeze lifting, they text (425) 500-1556. Plain conversational English.
3. AI extracts and structures the lead
Our AI lead parsing engine pulls out company, contact, role, urgency, and dollar potential — then asks one or two smart follow-up questions over SMS.
4. Smart routing to the right BD rep
Healthcare leads go to your healthcare rep. IT goes to IT. Light industrial to light industrial. Round-robin or named owner — fully configurable.
5. BD closes the deal
The lead drops into your existing CRM (Bullhorn, HubSpot, Salesforce) with full context — including the original text so reps can hear the worker's voice.
6. Worker gets paid automatically
When the placement closes, Earshot tracks the payout and notifies the worker. Leaderboards keep momentum going across your whole roster.
Your next deal is already in earshot.
One closed placement pays for Earshot for the year. Gamified for your workers, optionally wired into your ATS or CRM.
