Lucid Connect Celebrates 2 Years In Business
It’s official, Lucid Connect turned 2 years old this week and what a 2 years it has been! The permanent sister company of the infamous Lucid Support Services has managed to exceed expectations, goals, and growth within the last 24 months, and they couldn’t be prouder of the team that make up Lucid Connect Ltd.
A few words from Paul Minns, Head of Lucid Connect, on the business turning 2:
“I am delighted of the progress we have made since first launching the new brand at such a challenging time in the market. We have built a great platform to build on, with some notable contributions throughout the team since the hard launch in April 2021. I’m particularly excited about our future growth plans as we continue to onboard high-profile customers and extend our candidate networks. We offer a professional, high-touch Recruitment-as-a-Service approach through retained search, recruitment projects and volume hiring campaigns, and look forward to expanding our services into the new financial year.”
The last 2 years hasn’t been smooth sailing, as the majority of organisations will understand, with the whole world experiencing an unprecedented time and a global virus keeping them locked up in their houses. But Lucid Connect managed to pull through to the other side and come out even stronger as a successful premium consultative service.
They have reflected on the past 24 months and have an abundance of appreciation for how far they have come, and they wanted to share these achievements with you all, as without some of you, none of this could’ve happened!
1 – Achieving/Delivering a Profitable Business in 2021-22
Connect achieved a very healthy profitable growth in their 2nd year of business, delivering 200% year on year growth in the 2nd year and exceeding their annual financial goal by 15.89%. Whilst this may not seem like something some business would shout about, for a ‘newcomer’ business to smash these goals before the financial year came to an end, whilst still in the middle of a pandemic, is something they are proud of.
2 – Exceeded Expectations of Onboarded Clients
In the 24 months they have been live, they have successfully managed to onboard some great clients, predominantly in the IT and Technology space. They currently partner with global professional services firms, several VARs in the top 10 list of IT Channel Resellers, and a range of businesses across multiple sectors. Alongside that they have expanded their executive searches internationally to the USA and Germany, partnering with global consultancies.
3 – Proud of Creating a Strong and Capable Team
The Lucid Connect team have grown in number, strength, and capability over the last 2 years. They have formed a proactive team that complement each other’s strengths and support one another’s weaknesses. It’s quite a statement to say they have formed the ‘dream team’, but without the cooperation of each Connect member, they wouldn’t be the prosperous organisation they are today!
4 – Lucid Has an Established and Trusted Online Brand
Whilst delivering professional and trusted employment services is their specialty, they couldn’t have the partnerships and interest in the business they have today without an online presence. This time last year, April 2021, Lucid Connect launched their brand-new logo and website alongside their sister company, Lucid Support Services, and the engagement was immense. Having an organisation that delivered such premium level project delivery services, alongside permanent and executive searches that acted as an extension of your business and was able to deliver that so clearly online as well as offline was an achievement within itself. They have a combined social media following of 3,500+ just on LinkedIn and Instagram, two of the most popular and growing B2B social platforms in the world right now, and this was an opportunity to grow brand awareness Connect did not miss out on.
5 – 100+ Years Joint Experience
The Lucid Connect team have a combined experience in the IT recruitment and project delivery services industry of just over 100 years. This level of experience is underpinned to provide a consultative service, with a proven 98% success rate with clients. Specialising in mid-senior level hires within the technology, digital, data and business transformation space, Lucid Connect aren’t short of experts when it comes to leveraging their team’s long-standing experience and partnerships across a range of industry sectors and within the IT channel to benefit companies like yours!
