Why I Built myScout After 20 Years in Staffing

By Tiffany Scott. Nov 15, 2026

I spent 20 years in staffing. In all that time I never had a sales tool that was built for the way staffing actually works.

Every prospecting tool on the market was built for software companies. They will happily hand you ten thousand contacts. None of them can tell you the one thing a staffing salesperson needs to know first: does this company even use staffing?

The question nobody could answer

If you have ever run a staffing sales team, you know the drill. Your salespeople pull a list, start dialing, and spend most of the week talking to companies that have never used a temp in their life and never will. That is not a sales problem. That is a data problem.

The other half of the problem is the person. Even when you find a company that uses staffing, you end up talking to the front desk or someone who has zero say in who gets the business. Then you pitch them the same way you pitch everyone else, and wonder why it lands flat.

So I built it

When the company I spent most of my career at was acquired, I had a choice. Go job hunting, or build the thing I had been wishing for since my first year in the business. I built it.

myScout tells you:

  • Which companies use staffing. And which ones don't, so your sales team stops calling dead ends.
  • Who makes the call. The actual hiring decision makers, not a generic inbox.
  • How to reach them. Contact info for the people who sign.
  • How to talk to them. A DISC profile on each contact, so the first conversation sounds like you know them.

Who it is for

Staffing firm owners and the people selling for them. That's it. It is not a tool for everybody, and that is the point. Everything in it exists because I needed it and couldn't buy it.

If you run a staffing firm and you are tired of paying for data that doesn't know what you sell, watch the instant demo and see who in your market uses staffing. And who doesn't.
