I've had Griffin's recruiting team help me build my Sales Team and I've used them to Coach them as well. The biggest win for me has been developing myself thru their coaching on how to be the best Sales Manager I can be. Thank you Griffin!!!

Charmaine Conaghan

Executive Director, Owner
Always Best Care of Glenview and the North Shore

After a couple of less than ideal hires, I did not trust myself this time to hire for our Business Development position. I hoped by hiring Griffin I would be in expert hands. While there were setbacks here and there, I did feel this project was in the right, and yes expert, hands. They culled through countless resumes and rejected candidates I might have hired with likely disastrous results. They held fast to requirements and standards. Candidates went through several interviews and hiring assessment tools before reaching me for consideration. We also worked through comp package options and arrived at a package my budget can handle. In the end, I hired my new Business Development and Senior Advisor.... she has about 15 years in the Senior field, is personable and driven. She starts in a month and I can't wait to see how she does!

Sheila Davis

Senior Vice-President, Area Operations
Always Best Care Senior Services, Corporate

I am pleased to share my experience working with Griffin Resources during the recent search for a National Director on behalf of Always Best Care Senior Services Corporate. From the outset, their team demonstrated an unmatched level of professionalism, dedication, and attention to detail that made the entire recruitment process seamless and highly effective.

Griffin Resources took the time to understand not just the technical qualifications for the role, but also the core values, culture, and strategic goals of Always Best Care. This insight ensured that the candidates presented were not only highly qualified but also aligned with our mission and vision.

Throughout the process, communication was exceptional. The Griffin Resources team provided regular updates, remained receptive to feedback, and adjusted their search strategies as needed to refine the pool of candidates. Their proactive and thorough approach resulted in a strong selection of candidates, each with a clear understanding of the role and a genuine interest in contributing to our organization’s success.

Ultimately, we secured a candidate who exceeded our expectations and has already begun to make a positive impact on our team. The quality of the recruitment process directly reflects Griffin Resources' expertise, network, and commitment to excellence.

I wholeheartedly recommend Griffin Resources to any organization in need of top-tier recruitment services. Their professionalism and effectiveness set a high standard in the field, and I look forward to partnering with them again in the future.

New team member alert!

Thanks to Michelle Griffin and her highly capable team at Griffin Resources for helping us find our part-time Office Assistant/Client Experience Coordinator who will start next week

Having Griffin Resources allows Chellsea Dodds, our part-time office manager to stay focused on her strategic work as office manager, rather than getting inundated with screening candidates.

Adam Cohen

KJ Technology

Alexandra Shinn, Michelle Griffin, Ceage Powell and the entire Griffin Resources team have been a wonderful partner to KJ Technology for years! I’d whole-heartedly recommend them to anyone looking for a team of HR professionals who are not only experts in their field, but who’ll collaborate as part of your team.

Sarah Cave

Owner / Administrator
Always Best Care Senior Services

Griffin Resources worked with me to recruit a new Sales Manager to grow my in-home care agency. I was so fortunate to be assigned Shannon, a seasoned healthcare professional with extensive sales experience, as my Fractional Recruiter. Shannon was thorough in her screening and interviewing of candidates, and checked in with me frequently to provide guidance and counsel. During the recruitment process, one of Griffin’s Senior Financial Consultants, Sergei, developed a Sales Profitability Analysis to inform the compensation model for my new sales manager. Following the successful recruitment, I engaged Griffin to help coach my new sales manager, and Shannon has once again been amazing! She meets with my sales manager weekly and debriefs with me regularly. Shannon has helped put new structure and systems into place to set our new Sales Manager up for success and our revenue is already growing. I highly recommend Griffin Resources for anyone looking to attract top talent and scale their business.

I am truly astonished at the success of using Griffin Resources leadership coaching program and most importantly, of how quickly things started to happen. Tracy has a special skill to understand the people she is coaching and bring out the very best of them while having them laser focused on goals that we agreed upon ahead of time. I have told so many of my peers that I can show the best ROI on using this program and it happened so much faster than I ever thought possible. Best investment that I ever made.

My experience with AK consultants was fantastic. As the leader of a sales team, it was so refreshing to have a third-party provide objective insights! My team and myself have definitely gained from the wealth of knowledge the folks over at AK provide.

Andrew Ross

VP of Business Development QWC

My company has been using AK for almost a year now and it has been a pleasure. There has not been anything that they aren't able to do. They help guide your team, monitor growth, and also keep you accountable. 10/10 highly recommend!

Business Development

Dussteen Scott

Working with Shannon Tremel at Griffin Resources has been an absolute game-changer for my success in medical sales. Over just three months, I went from struggling to generate referrals to consistently securing them in my role with a home care company. As a seasoned marketing and sales professional with over 24 years of experience, I’ve navigated many industries, but the unique demands of medical sales; rigorous face-to-face meetings, strong relationship-building, and strategic networking—presented new challenges. Shannon’s training provided the structure, accountability, and insights I needed to make an immediate impact. Her coaching style blends encouragement, strategic guidance, role-playing, and actionable feedback, all of which helped me refine my approach and accelerate my results. Shannon understands what it takes to excel in this competitive space, and her expertise has been invaluable in sharpening my skills. I highly recommend her and Griffin Resources.

Collaboration between Touchstone Home Care and Griffin Resources has been nothing short of amazing. Open communication and finding the perfect fit for our Agency was key. Griffin Resources and team made this process seamless. Thank you for all your efforts in this process!!!!

Carlos Camacho

Owner/Operator
Always Best Care Senior Services

We’ve been working with Griffin Resources for about a month now, we decided to move forward with you because after working on our referral marketing strategy over the last couple of years we just weren’t gaining the traction we desired. We were immediately drawn to the fact that you worked hand in hand with the Platinum Sales Training Process. So far, we’ve been very pleased with your rigorous approach. We started off having Griffin train three (3) Sales People and a Sales Manager. We’ve already seen that close mentoring, clear goals and consistent follow up are yielding results. Our Team is now more focused than ever. I am proud of what we’ve been able to accomplish in such a short time! I look forward to continued incremental growth through a clear logical approach. Thank you Shannon and Tim for your guidance!

It is with great satisfaction that I share my experience with you in hiring AK Consultants. From the onset, the team was brought in, and they worked with my company in the most professional way. Their expertise in marketing, web design, logo design, sales, research, finance, and communication, was extraordinary. We cannot be any happier with our decision to hire AK Consultants & Healthcare. Many thanks to Suzanne for seeking us out and seeing the vision. It was my best business decision and I recommend them highly.

Senior Due Diligence Expert

AK is a very diversified company that helps manage sales and marketing as well as operational, and regulatory areas for their clients. In addition AK performs due diligence for acquisitions and dispositions, and recently added to their capabilities, the buying and selling of properties and businesses for their clients. AK is a young company run by a visionary industry professional with a great deal of experience, and it is staffed by people who are highly talented. The work they do has generated significant improvements for their clients, as I witnessed when I came across AK in my tenure working as a senior due diligence, operations and financial consultant for a major health care company. AK partnered with us to build revenue and to turn around and unprofitable division. The results were miraculous.

TLC Adult Day Care And Recreation Center

I had the pleasure of hiring AK Consultants & Healthcare when we opened our Adult Day Care Center in 2019. We were looking to implement a business development program and a colleague from the local chamber of commerce recommended I reach out to Ashleigh Kirsten for her assistance. After speaking to her, we decided that she definitely had the professionalism, experience and knowledge to assist in achieving our goals. She helped develop a short and long term marketing strategy for TLC Adult Day Care and Recreation Center which also included the training of our business development staff. She left us with the tools we needed to develop and continue to grow our marketing goals.

Timothy Sullivan

CEO
Integrity Health Care Systems, Inc.

We have been working with AK Consultants and Healthcare for about a year now. They developed and launched our new website, and their team has collaborated with our marketing program ever since. Their focus on our needs has been proactive, and their team has been by our side all the way suggesting ideas and strategies to be effective with our online presence and social media engagement. I have been so impressed with their expertise and support that I have referred them to three other organizations with whom I have vested interests. I am looking forward to seeing the impact and success AK Consultants and Healthcare will bring to their business as well! I think of Ashleigh Kirsten and her team not only as professionals concerned with the success of my businesses but also as trusted friends interested in my personal well-being and growth.

Roberta Rexroth

Community Medical

AK Consultants & Healthcare was with us at every step of the way through the selling of our business. They did not pressure us to sell, but rather laid out options for us to grow or sell. Initially they worked with us to improve our marketing reach, which helped us to better position our business for sale. By providing a valuation of our company, we were able to confidently decline offers that were too low, allowing us to maximize our selling price. Throughout the diligence period, they assisted us with the buyer’s information requests, thereby reducing the time to close. Overall, AK Consultants & Healthcare was a trusted partner throughout the entire process.

Christina Crumbley, RN, MSN, HCS-D, HCS-O

CEO / Owner
Tidal Healthcare Consulting LLC

As a new business, I had limited funds for marketing but knew I needed a well-functioning website at the very least in order to build my business. That, plus a professional brochure and business card are tools I need when knocking on doors — literally and figuratively. There were many qualified design firms wanting my business but I went with a vendor who could understand my needs as an entrepreneur and as sole marketer of my business.

Nicole Toll

Owner
The Enchanted Beauty Bar

Working with the AK team was hassle-free. They finessed my logo and came up with professional designs for the website and print materials. I also think their services were an excellent value and recommend them to other businesses that need a new or refreshed website.

Troy Beck

CEO
TB42 Consulting

The thought of developing a website for my small business was scary; I am not going to lie. However, working with AK Consultants and Healthcare they simplified the process and assisted me every step of the way. Creating a modern, engaging, and appealing site could not have been easier. Thanks to the great team for all of your help!

Dr. Louis

CEO
Prestige Health & Wellness, LLC

As a new business owner, it was important for my website to represent my passion for my patients. The collaboration with AK Consultants & Healthcare fostered creativity in the logo creation and website design. The vision became a reality and I am so excited to share it with the world.
