TRUSTED BY MARKETING AGENCIES ACROSS THE U.S.
Marketing agencies use Talent Scout to hire pre-vetted designers, video editors, and marketing specialists from Latin America at $3,500-$4,500/month. No recruiting fees. No annual contracts.
Marketing agencies operate on thin margins: 15-25% net profitability, with talent as the largest controllable cost. A U.S. senior designer or strategist costs $90,000-$130,000 per year in salary alone, plus benefits, taxes, and overhead. The margin math does not work when your clients demand fast turnaround on creative work and staff productivity is constrained by undersized teams.
Client expectations have not changed. Agencies still face 48-72 hour turnarounds on ad creative, social content, video edits, and strategy work. The pressure is margin compression meeting service level expectations. The result: understaffed creative teams, missed internal SLAs, and senior talent burned out managing overflow work instead of strategy.
LATAM talent solves this without the hiring overhead of traditional U.S. staffing. You get dedicated team members, not freelancers or contractors. They integrate into your existing workflows (Slack, Asana, Figma, Frame.io, Loom). They understand agency client culture: deadlines are non-negotiable, revisions are part of process, and presentations matter. And the unit economics work. An 8-person LATAM team costs $336,000-$432,000 per year through Talent Scout, replacing an equivalent U.S. team that costs $800,000-$1,200,000 in total compensation. That is $400,000-$600,000+ in annual savings. Book a call to walk through your team structure, or read how other agencies are using nearshore staffing to protect margins.

The cost math is straightforward. A senior graphic designer in the U.S. costs $143,000 fully loaded (salary, benefits, taxes, overhead). Through Talent Scout, the same role costs $54,000 per year ($4,500/month). That is $89,000 in annual savings per hire and the numbers compound fast across a full team.
