At Soulman’s Bar-B-Que, a family-owned brand committed to serving authentic Texas-style barbecue with Southern hospitality, inconsistent applicant flow and candidate ghosting was a challenge. Despite trying multiple channels like social media ads and third-party services, it was difficult to secure top management talent, resulting in a significant hiring budget.
LANDED helped Soulman’s slash hiring costs and speed up time-to-hire with a custom talent strategy powered by Generative AI vetting, LANDED+ Boosting, and 24/7 Client Strategy support. The result was a steady stream of qualified management candidates—without the hefty recruiter fees.
“It’s been a great partnership. We’ve dealt with recruiters as an avenue to get applicants, and it can cost up to $4,000 to get a single hire. It’s excessive. With LANDED, we found two great folks for $100. It’s great.”
