One thing that might be a friction point reading this proposal (it was for me anyway), is that I don't know what a "staffing-prenuer" is, and a quick google search raised more questions then it answered. Is it someone who starts a staffing agency like a restaurateur?

Sorry this might just be me; but I just wanted to let you know.

Appreciate your comments. A Staffing-preneur refers to any Technical Recruiters who are entrepreneurs.

Would you have considered the proposal if I simply addressesed them as staffing entrepreuers? Or what would you have addressed them as? Open to suggestions/ideas.

My goal is to democratize entrepreurship amongst Technical Recruiters, especially those that are just out of college and struggling to find a job.

Ah I see. I think you can use the term but saying:

> A Staffing-preneur refers to any Technical Recruiters who are entrepreneurs.

At the beginning would have helped me. It's always hard to know whether or not to use or explain buzzwords, but keep in mind proposals might be read by lots of different kinds of people, so it's okay to be cautious.

Thank you qopp. Your suggestion is most definitely appreciated.
I was also confused by this terminology. I personally find buzzwords pretty off-putting, and I don't really understand what "staffing" is in the first place -- is it like a temp agency?
Appreciate your comments. A Staffing-preneur refers to all those entrepreneurs who start and own a staffing business.
