In our opinion...

GrowthPair is the best way to hire marketing talent without relying on freelancers or expensive onshore hires

When growth is a priority, hiring right isn’t optional. But finding reliable marketing talent that doesn’t cost $100K is often time-consuming, expensive, and risky. We believe every marketing team deserves dedicated talent they can trust and a hiring process that embeds new team members quickly and fully. That’s what we’re building at GrowthPair.

If you’re ready to scale with top global marketing talent and a hiring partner built for growth, we’d love to talk.

How does GrowthAssistant work?

GrowthAssistant is a staffing platform that places vetted marketing assistants and specialists, primarily sourced from the Philippines, into client teams on a managed service model. Clients submit a role, GrowthAssistant runs a multi-step recruiting process, and presents a single matched candidate to embed into the team.

Who can I hire with GrowthAssistant?

GrowthAssistant places roles like paid social specialists, email marketers, video editors, designers, data analysts, influencer marketers, and ecommerce ops support. Their positioning leans toward assistant-style execution support designed to free up senior time on the client team.

Is GrowthAssistant a good option for hiring marketers?

GrowthAssistant can be a fit for teams looking for executional marketing support tied to a single talent pool. However, their recruiting is concentrated in one region, their assessments are not proctored or function-specific in the way GrowthPair’s are, and they offer a single managed service model rather than the flexibility of choosing between managed service and one-time placement.

Who uses GrowthPair?

GrowthPair is used by companies that treat marketing as a core growth driver. Typical clients include DTC brands, agencies, and SaaS teams with product-market fit and a marketing lead who wants experienced execution talent without hiring full-time onshore.

How is GrowthPair’s vetting different from GrowthAssistant?

Every GrowthPair candidate is vetted by senior marketers, completes function-specific proctored assessments, and is evaluated for English C1 fluency. Our recruiting is led by marketers so candidates are evaluated against the standard of teams that actually move growth metrics. GrowthAssistant uses internal recruiters and non-proctored scenario tests within a broader assistant-staffing framework.

Does GrowthPair or GrowthAssistant have more flexible hiring models?

GrowthPair offers both a managed service and a one-time placement headhunter model so you can choose how you want to hire. GrowthAssistant operates on a single managed service model with a flat monthly fee and no buyout option.

What if I want to hire the talent directly?

GrowthPair offers a clear talent buyout path if you want to bring a marketer fully in-house. GrowthAssistant does not publicly offer a buyout model — talent remains contracted through their platform.
