Sales orgs specialize by motion. Inbound-led teams hire an Inbound Sales Rep, while outbound-led teams combine an Outbound Sales Representative with an Appointment Setter to keep calendars full. Higher-ACV deals call for a Business Development Manager or a Strategic Sales Consultant, and scaling teams layer in a Sales Enablement Specialist to get new reps ramped quickly.
A Sales Rep runs the front line of revenue: prospects, qualifies, demos, and closes deals against a quota. The exact scope varies by company, from inbound-only to full-cycle outbound, from $5K SMB deals to $50K mid-market. The role rewards activity, follow-through, coachability, and the temperament to handle no constantly. The good ones combine genuine curiosity about the prospect with the discipline to run the playbook.
Sales Rep salaries are heavily commission-weighted. Expect an average U.S. salary of $6,800 per month compared with an average Latin American salary of $2,000 per month, creating potential savings of up to 70%. LatAm has built a deep sales rep bench, particularly bilingual reps targeting U.S. accounts, with strong outbound chops and U.S.-style sales process fluency.
Yes, remote SDR/AE/Sales Rep teams are the norm at modern B2B companies. South contracts the rep locally, runs payroll and compliance, and bills you monthly. They join your CRM, dialer, and Slack day one. Time-zone alignment matters: U.S. business hours coverage means the rep can run a full prospecting day on EST or CST.
Coachability, activity discipline, and the resilience to run hundreds of cold outreach attempts a week. Look for reps who can walk through their best deal and their worst loss with equal honesty. Run a role-play: a tough discovery call where the prospect pushes back. The signal is genuine listening, structured discovery, and a willingness to disqualify.
Salesforce or HubSpot as the CRM. Outreach, Salesloft, or Apollo for sequencing. ZoomInfo, Apollo, or LinkedIn Sales Navigator for prospecting. Gong or Chorus for call review. Zoom for demos. Slack and email for daily ops. Familiarity with Calendly or Chili Piper for scheduling, and Loom for async video outreach is a plus.
An Account Executive typically owns mid-market and enterprise deals: longer cycles, multiple stakeholders, larger ACVs. A Sales Rep is broader and often covers SMB or transactional deals. The titles are used interchangeably at some companies. If you're hiring for $50K+ deals with 60+ day cycles, hire an AE. For $5K-25K transactional deals, a Sales Rep is the right fit.

The region has the perfect mix of everything you want in remote employees: English skills, shared time zones, hard-working, and depth of talent. They are already accustomed to working remotely for top US startups and Fortune 500 companies.
Absolutely! The US and Latin America have basically the same time zones. No Latin American city is more than two hours ahead of EST.
Every hire is sourced based on your exact needs. They will arrive ready to support your business right away. They can do basically any tasks done remotely, but we recommend starting them as support so your team has more bandwidth for high-value strategic tasks.
All types of roles - customer service, executive assistant, sales, accounting, email marketing, lead generation, content writers, operations, social media marketing, and more!
You can pay directly through us (most popular) or we can connect you with one of our payroll partners.
You don't have to deal with any American labor laws / taxes when hiring full-time remote contractors. They aren't US-based, so no visas or sponsorships to deal with either.
We recommend market pay which varies for each role. See our salary guide and success stories for some ideas.
Then, we have two different models:
Staffing (most popular) - We charge a small monthly fee for each employee's monthly salary to make the process hassle-free. The fee covers sourcing, recruiting, admin, payroll, compliance, ongoing support, and a free replacement if necessary at any point. There are no cancellation fees or minimum commitments. You only pay if you make a hire.
Headhunting - A one-time simple fee once we've found the perfect candidate. This comes with a 120-day replacement guarantee.
For both options, you only pay something if we find you someone great that you want to hire.
Yes, we only recruit for full-time and we strongly recommend full-time hiring if you can. Stability (full-time & long-term) is highly sought after abroad. The top caliber candidates are only looking for full-time work.
You're also going to spend time training and getting them up to speed on your processes. It would be a waste to do that over and over again with new people all the time.
We recommend training new hires on one thing at a time.
For example, once they get up to speed on lead generation, you can add the next role writing blog posts or whatever you'd like. You can definitely overlap roles until you have enough work for multiple people.
The cost of living is much less in Latin American countries. Many of our employees are able to own homes, raise families, provide for their parents, and have in-home help of their own with their salaries.
If you aren't happy with your hire in the first 120 days, we will work with you to conduct a second round of search for the same role for free.
