Bespoke
Bespoke Education is a leading tutoring and test prep company that works with students in elementary school through graduate school to prepare them for standardized tests, helps with school work and organizational issues, and offers tutoring for school courses.
The goal: Profitable growth
Bespoke underwent significant changes in 2023 when decided to launch its tech platform for online SAT tests. The interim CMO, Steven Faigen, was tasked with growing this new line of business with limited resources.
The Bespoke team needed a Digital Marketing Manager, but competitive salary ranges for talent in the US were over budget.
The solution: Hiring from Argentina
Bespoke hired a Senior Digital Marketing Manager from Argentina through Brite. Brite handled multi-national logistics, contracts, and compliance and assisted with every stage of the hiring process, from sourcing to onboarding. Instead of hiring for this role in the US, the Bespoke team saved over $80,000 /year by hiring in Argentina, acquiring the same caliber of talent.
Here is what Bespoke's CMO Steven Faigen said about Brite: "Brite has exercised pinpoint accuracy in identifying extraordinarily qualified candidates for a new marketing manager role. All possessed strong technical skills, operational experience, and collaborative, empathetic working styles. I could not be more satisfied with the outcome and will not hesitate for a second to have Brite find future team members."
