I have worked with Andy and Goodman Consulting Associates for 5+ years. Over that time, he has placed over 30 individuals for me at several levels of sales and sales
leadership. His approach and effort are what sets him apart. He is relentless when it comes to finding the perfect match for an open position. He listens to his clients to
understand their business and meet their needs. Professionalism and responsiveness
are hallmarks of his personal brand. Also, our retention rate with Andy’s candidates has been significantly higher than his competitors’.

When I accepted the Interim COO role at The Destination Channel, I had inherited a
sales team of eight sales associates who lacked skill, talent, and the drive to succeed. We needed a complete rebuild…fast. I immediately engaged Andy Goodman of Goodman Consulting Associates. Andy’s process, communication, and extensive network produced four best-in-class sales associates who transformed our results almost overnight. For perspective: The original Destination Channel Sales team had a low sales hurdle of $18,000 per month per associate in net new business. The talent Andy sourced through Goodman Consulting Associates averages $100,000 per associate per month. This dramatic improvement is no accident, Andy’s candidates are exceptionally skilled, highly educated, and well-practiced in the art and psychology of sales. I cannot overstate the positive impact Andy and Goodman Consulting Associates have had on our sales organization. It allowed me to complete a successful turn-around of the entire organization. Goodman Consulting’s professionalism, expertise, and proven ability to deliver world-class talent set them apart from anyone I have worked with in the field of recruitment. I recommend them without reservation and with the highest level of confidence.

Andy Goodman and his company are the best recruiters that I’ve ever worked with, especially with their unique recruiting strategy. They have found several key players for us who were not looking for jobs. Their rates are reasonable and they are incredibly user-friendly and effective. I’ve grown to trust Andy and I now rely on him as my go-to guy!

When I first started in this business over 25 years ago, I wore just about every hat imaginable. Like many who are building something from the ground up, I needed a partner someone I could trust to help me find the right people to grow our team and our culture. That’s when I met Andy Goodman.

From day one, Andy understood that this business wasn’t just about filling roles it was about building relationships. He took the time to understand our company inside and out: our people, our values, and the type of individuals who would thrive here. It wasn’t about quick hires or short-term wins. It was about long-term success and sustainable growth.

Over the years, Andy and I have worked closely together, sometimes consistently, sometimes just when the need arose, but always with the same shared vision. Whether we were expanding, evolving, or facing unexpected challenges, Andy was there with insight, honesty, and a genuine commitment to doing what was right for our business.

Andy is one of the most thoughtful, reliable, and intuitive professionals I’ve had the pleasure to work with. He doesn’t just check boxes he builds trust, delivers results, and brings a level of integrity to his work that’s rare in any industry. I’m grateful for our partnership and proud to call him a trusted ally and friend.

I am writing to enthusiastically recommend Andy Goodman as an outstanding Executive and Sales Recruiting Consultant. I have had the pleasure of working with him and Goodman Consulting Associates to source for multiple strategic executive and sales  searches, and I have been consistently impressed by his talent and dedication.

During these engagements, Andy has consistently demonstrated an exceptional ability to identify, attract, and secure top  tier executive talent across various business unit functions. He and his team possess a deep understanding of the recruitment process, from sourcing and screening candidates to negotiating offers and onboarding new hires. In addition, Andy’s strategic mindset and ability to build strong relationships with both candidates and hiring managers have been invaluable to our organization. Andy is adept at understanding the unique needs of different roles and departments, and his
ability to articulate these needs to potential candidates has been crucial to our success in attracting top talent.

Beyond his technical skills and best practice, Andy is also a highly effective communicator and a true asset to any team. He is a pleasure to work with, and I am confident that he would be a valuable addition to any strategic organization or partnership. I highly recommend Andy Goodman without reservation.

Over the past 9+ years, I’ve had the privilege of working closely with Andy Goodman across a wide range of recruiting engagements. During that time, we’ve hired
more than 50 sales professionals and sales managers together, and that number continues to grow.

At revenueify, we believe in building long-term value through tailored, industry-specific programs. Andy’s approach to recruiting aligns perfectly with our mission. He doesn’t just send resumes, he sends high-performing, employed professionals who are actively succeeding in their current roles. These aren’t job hoppers or candidates looking for a lifeline. They’re the kind of people we’d hire almost every time they’re presented.

Andy’s ability to project manage both sides of the recruiting process is unmatched. He
keeps candidates engaged, ensures our internal team stays aligned, and helps us move quickly without sacrificing quality. In fact, in nearly a decade of working together, we’ve only had one role we couldn’t fill, and that was due to market constraints, not effort. Andy went above and beyond to help us find a solution, even when the odds were stacked against us. What sets Andy apart is that he doesn’t just recruit, he trains us. He’s helped us refine our internal hiring processes, improve our interview flow, and build a more scalable recruiting engine. His work has made us better at what we do. Andy is more than a recruiter, he’s a strategic partner who understands how to build lifetime customer value through talent. His work has helped us amplify revenue, improve outcomes, and deliver world-class experiences to our clients and associates.

If you’re looking for someone who can deliver high-quality candidates, improve your hiring process, and become an extension of your team, Andy Goodman is the person you want in your corner.

I’ve had the unique experience of working with Andy both as a candidate and as an HR leader. He placed me in my current role as VP of HR at Tosca Services. His outreach
was thoughtful, his communication was consistent, and he moved quickly to connect me with the opportunity. Later, I partnered with Andy to fill several critical commercial roles, including Sales Directors and a VP of Customer Experience. He worked closely with our team to understand the business and brought in top-tier passive talent. Andy is responsive, credible, and committed to finding the right fit for both the company and the candidate. I’d recommend him without hesitation.

I am pleased to write this letter of recommendation for Andy Goodman. I first met Andy during my time at ADP when he reached out to me regarding an opportunity at Paycor. At the time, I was not actively looking for a new role, but Andy’s approach as a recruiter was outstanding. He took the time to understand my career goals, motivations, and long-term aspirations. Thanks to his thoughtful and consultative style, I ultimately made the move to Paycor, one of the best career decisions I have made.

Later, while working at Paycor, I had the opportunity to work with Andy again, this time as a client. I engaged him to help build out my sales team, and once again, he
delivered. Andy brings tremendous value through his extensive network, and a proprietary database built over 30 years in the business. He has a keen ability to understand a business’s unique needs, source high-quality candidates, and help effectively position the opportunity to top talent. I have continued to bring him into the other organizations I have been a part of.

Whether you are looking to add a single key hire, expand your team, bring in extra recruiting support, or fully outsource your recruiting function, I highly recommend Andy Goodman. He brings experience, integrity, and results to every engagement.

Holly Kerschensteiner-Logan,
VP of Sales
Paycor

I’ve known Andy now for over a decade and he’s one of those people in your network that consistently delivers. He’s extremely well connected, a true professional in his
space, and passionate about what he does and the people he works with.

He took a chance on me as a young professional 10 years ago and has since helped me find organizations and positions that have paid me back in multiples both professionally and personally.

If you’re lucky enough to have the opportunity to work with Andy, don’t pass it up. He’ll be an invaluable resource throughout your career.
