Default Re: Temporary Agencies
That isn't something I'd ever thought about. At first thought it sounds like a plausible option; but with Mary's caution in mind I'd be wary of how the relationship is handled.

The only other thought I have, and this is based solely on personal perference, is that it's much different to work with a group or team of people than it is a small business owner, independent coach, or entrepreneur...
But that's really not relative to your question...I suppose you'd market to a temp agency much the same way you would anyone else - point out the gaps in their operations that you can fill, streamline, simplify, etc.

Perhaps reaching them by direct mail and/or in person?
