Spectrum Recruiting Case Study
To navigate uncharted waters, deep sea explorers must bear crushing pressure against their craft, limited visibility, and the darkest depths of the unknown. Do you know who else has to navigate difficult challenges like these? For business owners, like Spectrum Recruiting Solutions, these challenges were all too real and weighed heavily on them, preventing them from moving forward. They needed an updated website that reflected their expertise. Above all, they wanted to showcase niche resources for both job seekers and hiring managers in the engineering and manufacturing fields.

Check out Steven Heumann's New Book
Long time client of JamboJon, Steven Heumann, has a new book that was just released! “Write to Lead. The Secret to Becoming the Go-To Leader in Your Industry.”
Steven has written ten sci-fi novels. He’s spent 20 years filming stories for tv, and business promotion. Now he’s taking his expertise as a writer and helping business leaders like you tell their story through ghost writing. Out of all the videographers and business owners we refer business to, Steven’s ability to capture stories and bring the adventure of living to film most closely aligns with JamboJon’s core mission for telling great stories. We are so thrilled for Steven and looking forward to attending his upcoming workshop March 27th. You can buy a copy of his book here!
