Common questions

How much does a sales development rep cost in Argentina?

A full-time sales development rep in Argentina costs roughly $1,000–$2,000 per month, against $4,500–$7,500 for a comparable US hire — about 75% less. Pay at the top of the band for the skill level you actually want; underpaying is the most common cause of a hire leaving in month four.

Is that a fair wage locally?

Yes — these are competitive full-time salaries in Argentina, often above local office equivalents, which is exactly why the talent pool is deep. Paying at or above the top of the band buys you retention; squeezing the bottom of it buys you a rehire.

What about the cost of finding them?

That's the second half of the bill and it's where the market varies wildly. Recruiting agencies charge 25–35% of first-year salary, which on this band works out to roughly $3,000–$8,400. We charge a flat fee from $1,995 regardless of the salary, and it's only due once you've read your shortlist.

Do I pay taxes or benefits on top?

In the common direct-contractor arrangement you pay the monthly rate and they handle their own local taxes. If the role is full-time and integrated, an employer-of-record legally employs them for you and adds a platform fee — our compliance guide explains when that's the right call.
