Common questions
Which overseas roles work best for marketing agencies?
The four that consistently earn their cost: content marketer, graphic designer, video editor, operations manager. Delivery capacity caps growth, and senior people spend their day on production instead of strategy.
What does it cost?
Monthly salaries run roughly $800–$1,800 depending on the role and country, paid directly by you with no markup from us. Placement is a flat fee from $1,995 per search rather than the 25–35% of first-year salary that's standard in this market.
Do you know this industry, or is this generic?
We publish the specific tools, tasks and failure modes for each industry rather than a find-and-replace of a generic page — for marketing agencies that means Asana or ClickUp, Figma, Adobe Premiere, Ahrefs or Semrush, Google Analytics. If something here doesn't match how your business actually runs, tell us and we'll say so plainly rather than sell you a role that won't fit.
