Why MarketerHire?

No job postings, No interviews, No headache.

Direct to Marketer

Large agencies spread out their accounts throughout various junior employees with account managers often spending less than 30 minutes on each account. With MarketerHire you work directly with an expert marketer who is in the top 3% of their field.

No Long Term Contracts

Agencies lock you in with long term contracts and cancellation fees. With MarketerHire, you get a risk-free trial period and only need to provide a short cancellation notice if your strategy changes 

Agility

Tap into hundreds of different marketers at moments’ notice to react to new industry and marketing trends instead of being stuck with one service. Our professionals also don't require an extended onboarding period

No Hidden Fees

We don’t charge a percentage of your media ad spend unlike many agencies and offer free rematching if a marketer doesn’t work out

"MarketerHire was critical to keeping momentum behind our paid media strategy as we adjusted our internal teams and resources."
Nick Kriz

To address the urgent need for senior paid search and social media marketers, iFIT partnered with MarketerHire to hire two expert freelancers fast. These two senior-level marketers allowed iFIT to access external expertise quickly without the long-term commitment of hiring full-time employees.
