 FAQs

  • Companies choose to offshore their marketing operations to access exceptional talent while optimising costs. By partnering with Modern Day Talent to build remote teams in South Africa, you gain access to highly skilled marketing professionals who are native English speakers, work in compatible time zones, and bring fresh perspectives to your marketing initiatives. This allows you to scale your marketing operations efficiently while maintaining high quality standards and reducing operational costs by up to 40%.

  • Offshoring with Modern Day Talent means you get a dedicated marketing assistant who becomes an integral part of your team, exclusively contracted to your company. Unlike traditional outsourcing where work is delegated to a third-party agency, our model provides you with direct access to and control over your marketing hire. Your marketing hire is aligned to your company's goals and culture, just from a different geographic location.

  • Absolutely. With the right vetting, onboarding, and management processes in place, offshore marketing teams can be equally if not more productive than in-house teams. Many of our clients report higher output, improved results, and better team retention, with the added cost-saving benefit.

  • With our structured recruitment sprints we take you from CV review to job offer in just five days.

  • We carefully select the top 0.1% of South African marketing talent. However, if challenges arise, we have a comprehensive support system in place. We'll work closely with both parties to address any concerns and, if necessary, can provide a replacement marketing hire to ensure you find the perfect fit for your team.
