Offshoring marketing roles give you access to high-quality talent at a more affordable cost. These roles often attract huge volumes of applicants, but the real challenge is finding people who can produce work that performs, not just work that looks good.
By partnering with us to build teams in South Africa, you gain access to an internationally sought-after pool of creative talent with native-level English, strong creative judgement, and the ability to execute in line with your brand. We help you define the role around your core channels, so you hire for the skills that actually matter and reduce costs by up to 50%.
Offshoring with Modern Day Talent means you get a dedicated marketing hire who becomes an integral part of your team, exclusively contracted to your company. Unlike traditional outsourcing where work is delegated to a third-party agency, our model provides you with direct access and control over your hire. Your marketing hire is aligned to your company's goals and culture, just from a different geographic location.
Absolutely. With the right vetting, onboarding, and management processes in place, offshore marketing teams can be equally if not more productive than in-house teams. Many of our clients report higher output, improved results, and better team retention, with the added cost-saving benefit.
All hires are covered by The MDT Guarantee. As your partner in building your offshore team, we’re committed to finding you the perfect hire. But if a hire doesn't work out, we'll find an alternative option ASAP.
No - your hires are managed day-to-day by your team. You own the onboarding, the playbook, and the ICP. We're responsible for people ops: employment, HR, retention, and on-the-ground support.
Licences are on you - your team uses your stack. We can procure hardware (laptops, headsets) on your behalf if needed, but your offshore hires work inside your systems.
Once we begin the process, we typically deliver a curated shortlist of high-quality candidates within two weeks. From there, timelines depend on your interview process.
