Marketing That Moves With the Talent Industry - Since 2006

At ClearEdge, we specialize in helping staffing firms and HR tech companies accelerate growth — whether you’re placing candidates, launching new platforms, or expanding your client base. From seed stage to scaling and acquisition, we build marketing engines that align with your sales goals and drive measurable results.

As a full-service marketing agency, we understand the pressures leadership teams face. Whether you need to build your marketing foundation or amplify your market impact, we’re here to help you move faster and smarter.

We Understand Your World — Because We’ve Lived It

At ClearEdge, we don’t just market to the staffing and HR tech space — we come from it. Many of our team members have led marketing inside top staffing firms, HR tech startups, and workforce solutions providers, so we understand the real challenges you face: Tight margins, complex buyer journeys, competitive client acquisition, and talent scarcity.

We’ve sat at the leadership table with sales, recruiting, technology and executive teams trying to:

• Differentiate in a sea of sameness
• Launch new tech platforms and GTM strategies
• Build trust with both clients and candidates
• Align marketing with revenue — not just brand — and track results

Our experience spans the entire talent ecosystem — from contingent workforce programs and MSPs to industry vendors, VMS platforms, RPOs, ATS’, direct hire firms and more. That means we speak your language, understand your sales cycle, know your buyers, and build marketing that moves the needle in your world — not just in theory.
