Our Services
What We Do
Sourcing the Right Talent
We help you hire for the roles that keep your business running—from admin and customer service to marketing, bookkeeping, and operations. Whether you’re building your team for the first time or filling key roles after a transition, we find people who can step in and make an impact right away.
Candidate Vetting & Screening
We handle initial screening, ensuring only high-quality candidates who meet your criteria move forward—saving you time and effort.
Local & Global Reach
We hire locally or remotely—across the US and around the world. Whether you need on-site staff or cost-effective offshore talent, we’ve got it covered.
Flexible Hiring Support
Need one role filled or a steady stream of hires? We adapt to your needs, offering flexible, on-demand support that scales as your team grows.
How We’re Different
Built for Post-Acquisition SMBs
We’re not a generic recruiting agency. We were created specifically for acquisition entrepreneurs—helping first-time owners quickly build the right team after closing.
You Stay in Control, Without Getting Bogged Down
We take the heavy lift off your plate—sourcing, screening, coordinating—while keeping you in the loop at key decision points.
Built by Operators Who Know What Matters
We’ve run SMBs ourselves, so we focus on hires that actually move the needle—people who take ownership, adapt fast, and help drive results from day one.
Top Talent at SMB Prices
Whether you’re hiring locally or internationally, we focus on roles that deliver value—and make sure every dollar goes further.
Who We Hire: Doers, Not Execs
We don’t do executive searches or C-suite headhunting. We focus on what actually keeps your business running — the people on the ground who show up, do the work, and move the business forward.
Our specialty is sourcing individual contributors: team members who handle the day-to-day, execute with excellence, and give you back the time to lead.
We regularly hire for roles like:
- Customer Support & Admin
- Marketing & Content
- Sales & Lead Gen
- Bookkeeping & Finance
- Logistics & Ops
- Field Techs & Ground Staff
- Fulfillment & Warehouse
- Project Management
These are just examples. If the role is hands-on, high-impact, and core to how your business runs — we can find the right person to fill it.
How I Found Top Talent on an SMB Budget
When I bought my first small business, I quickly realized that my VC-backed hiring playbook didn’t apply. I didn’t have unlimited budget—but I still needed high-quality talent to keep the business running and growing.
That’s when I discovered the power of hiring in LATAM.
This isn’t outsourcing. It’s about building real, embedded team members—people who show up every day (virtually), know your business, and take ownership just like any US-based employee. The difference? Cost structure.
LATAM professionals working remotely for US companies often earn far more than they would locally, which means we can attract the very best. It’s a win-win:
- You get exceptional talent at sustainable SMB budgets
- They get access to better opportunities and higher pay
