The best talent is on the field right now ⚽🥅

Not interested in hearing from Lean Leverage or Go Carpathian?

You know exactly which role would change your business right now.

The problem was never clarity. It's the number sitting next to it. A real operator, a senior media buyer, a salesperson who can actually close: in the US that's six figures all in, before you've seen a single result.

So you wait. You stretch yourself thinner, or you hire someone junior and cheap and hope they grow into it.

Call it what it is: the US Talent Premium.

It's true, we have fantastic talent in the US, especially in tech roles. It can be hard to beat. But those seats often cost hundreds of thousands of dollars a year. The truth is that elite talent exists worldwide, and often at a much lower price tag.

Funny timing for it, too. 

The best soccer players on earth are on US soil this month for the World Cup. 

Argentina, Brazil, Bosnia, South Africa: the regions we hire from are all on the field. We watch talent like that and assume it's out of reach. Hiring runs the same way, except here you can actually put them on your team.

For the record, we'll be cheering for the USA right alongside you. And if you want to keep your team red, white, and blue, we make US placements too; we’re just offering you the alternatives most teams wish they had during their growth stages. 

We found a guy in Serbia with ten years of experience, including a stretch managing Pattern’s Serbian Operations, one of the largest ecommerce operations on the planet. He wanted $5k a month. The same hire in the US would have wanted $150k a year. Same resume. Same output. A fraction of the cost.

That's the part the price tag hides. The talent isn't lesser. The market is just different. And it is not one lucky role. It holds across the board:

“Cheaper means a worse hire, more risk, more babysitting”.

I hear it all the time. And I'd probably think that too if I hadn't spent the last few years building overseas teams that prove the opposite.

Here's what we've learned: how you find the talent makes all the difference. 

We don't just post and pray. We source through four separate funnels: regional job boards, headhunting people who already have great jobs, region-specific content, and referral partners. That is how you reach the operator who isn't desperate and isn't applying anywhere. And it shows up in the numbers: 50% of our clients hire one of the very first candidates we put in front of them.

The work that's been parked on your plate finally moves. You stopped choosing between expensive-and-right and cheap-and-risky, because that was never the real choice.

Here's the part that's time-sensitive: I have strong people for these exact roles ready to show you this week.
