 In this episode of Fractional Firepower, Kyle sits down with Brett Eifler, founder of BE Recruiting + Consulting, to break down what scaling companies often get wrong about hiring, recruiting, and team building. With years spent in leadership roles before becoming a recruiter, Bret sees talent differently — not as resumes and checkboxes, but as humans with stories, strengths, and untapped potential. Guest Introduction: Brett Eifler is the founder of BE Recruiting + Consulting, a recruiting and talent leadership consultancy built on real operational experience. Before helping companies hire, he ran them — giving him a powerful vantage point into what organizations actually need from talent, culture, and leadership. Today, he helps growing companies hire smarter, build strong teams, and avoid costly misfires by aligning skills, expectation, and personality — not just job descriptions.

Key Takeaways:
  • Great recruiting is matching humans to missions, not resumes to roles.
  • Hiring goes wrong when leaders rush — panic hiring creates expensive turnover.
  • Operators make strong recruiters because they understand the work from the inside.
  • Culture fit isn’t sameness — it’s alignment of expectations and communication.
  • The best hire isn’t the most experienced — it’s the one who thrives in your environment.
  • Founders who slow down to define success up front scale faster later.
