A Float campaign markets one candidate to many buyers. It opens with an anonymised tease, drips detail over a fortnight, and only names the candidate in the final email — so you find out who is genuinely interested before you give anything away.

Float vs a Normal Campaign

A standard campaign sells you — your service, your desk, your track record. A Float sells a person. That changes the shape of the sequence: instead of building a case for working together, it builds curiosity about a specific candidate and converts it into a conversation.

It is the classic reverse-market call, written down and sent to a mapped list instead of dialled one at a time.

The Sequence

Every Float runs tease → proof → reveal across three to five touches, spread over roughly two weeks so you have room to call or message between emails.

Step 1 — the tease — the hook. No name, no salary. Enough to make a hiring manager wonder who it is.

Middle steps — the proof — progressive detail. As you add touches you add beats: hard proof points, then what makes them stand out, then why they are moving.

Final step — the reveal — the full one-pager, availability and timelines, terms in the signature. It starts a fresh thread with a new subject rather than replying down a stale chain, so it reads as news instead of a fourth follow-up.

Three touches is the default and the shortest allowed; five is the maximum. Set it with the Touches control when you create the campaign.

Anonymous Until the Reveal

The candidate stays unnamed for the whole drip. The pitch is carried by an anonymised profile — specific enough to be worth replying to, safe enough to send cold to companies you do not have terms with.

Clients who want to know more click a tracked link to see the full profile. That click is the signal: you learn who is actually buying before the name is in the market, and before a competitor can work backwards from your email.

Recruiter-only notes stay with you — the draft can carry guidance meant for you rather than the client, such as a reminder to confirm exact dates. That note is stripped from anything a client sees — the shared link and the PDF both — and shows only in your editor.

Building One

Start from the candidate's Reverse Market Profile and use Build Float campaign, or create a campaign and pick the Float framework.
Choose the candidate the campaign is anchored to. The generated copy is written from that specific person, not a generic template.
Set your touch count, review the drafted steps, and enrol the prospects from the profile's mapped companies.

Replies stop the sequence automatically, as with any campaign — when someone bites, you take over.

The Float Profile Itself

The one-pager is generated from every source attached to the candidate: call notes, transcripts, CV, profile notes, LinkedIn and emails. You review and approve it before anything is sent, and it is yours to edit. Approved profiles are listed in your Library and on the candidate's record.

Generating one on its own

You do not need a campaign to produce a float. Open a person's People file, go to the Candidate role tab, and click Generate Float. That is also how you produce one for a client who asked for a specific candidate rather than a market you are working.

Sections & templates

The default template has six sections — summary, experience overview, qualifications and work rights, availability and logistics, employment history, and additional information. Toggle sections on or off, reorder them, and adjust the AI instructions to match how your agency writes. Templates are saved per workspace, so every float comes out consistent.

Sending it outside a campaign

As a PDF — send directly to one or more client contacts as a branded attachment. Recipients are resolved from the candidate's linked companies and the people in your workspace, and your email signature is added automatically.

As a link — enable sharing to generate a public URL for clients who would rather read it in the browser than download anything. Click tracking shows who opened it and when, and you can revoke access at any time by disabling sharing.

This is the same shared link the campaign's reveal step uses, so the recruiter-only note is stripped from it too.
