Eminently: Become a headhunter: manage, track & get paid for referrals

Hi fellow product hunter, for the past year, we have been working on this project to improve the way we hire and do business today. I have been searching for the missing link that would allow modern job and business platforms to be more effective. In my previous companies, most of our best talents were coming from our own personal networks. So it was obvious to me that the missing link is: us! In fact, today's platforms rely on data that do not describe who we are as co-workers, mentors, mentees, bosses or friends accurately. There's something far more valuable in the link that unites two people than keywords or hashtags. Experiencing various situations together allows us to know more about each other which in turn creates a special and valuable bond, a shared experience that cannot be condensed and stored in a database. Yes people matter! More and more companies are starting to understand that point and investing in employee referral programs. Those programs are proven to bring the best profiles, who stay longer, and are a better fit for the company. This is because employees know within their own network who can be a good fit for the company and the open position. But those programs are usually hidden within the company platform and only available to employees, assuming they even know this system exists. Also, using traditional headhunting agencies and private business networks come with a high cost in commissions. Furthermore, some of us are frequently making referrals and hoping for feedback about how it went or for people to return the favor someday… unfortunately, we are often disappointed. To tackle these challenges, we are launching eminent.ly, a platform that brings a new way of introducing people for a job or business opportunity by relying solely on your valuable network and knowledge, not on an incomplete and inaccurate database. With our platform, you are now able to manage your referrals, track how people are doing, and get paid for it when a deal is made. Hereafter, you will find a quick overview of the concept and a section describing how you can help us achieve an impactful and meaningful launch. Thanks for your attention and hope you will be a part of this journey. Eminently yours, Romain Pellerin, Founder. -- Q/A Why did we build it?
