A remote staffing agency that connects US founder-led businesses with vetted professionals from Eastern Europe and Latin America across executive assistance, marketing, sales development, customer support, finance, and operations. The business generates revenue through monthly outstaffing placements and one-time recruitment fees, with day-to-day operations managed by a general manager and five-person remote team and no ongoing operational involvement from the owner. Key Highlights ✅ FY2025 revenue of $1.2M with $155K SDE ✅ $949K TTM revenue with the current client book billing approximately $40.6K per month ✅ 12 active clients and 17 placements with approximately 34% gross margins ✅ Two revenue streams through monthly outstaffing and 15% first-year salary recruitment fees ✅ Places vetted Eastern European and Latin American talent across multiple business functions ✅ General manager and five-person remote team handle day-to-day operations with no owner involvement
Reprice the low-margin placements. Four of the 17 placements sit below the $1,000/month margin floor set in May; bringing them to the floor adds ~$2K/month of gross margin with no new sales. Sell recruitment placements on the existing relationships. Fees run 15% of first-year salary ($3K–$8K each, 100% margin); two closed in Q3 so far. One placement a month covers the whole fixed cost base. The demand is already in the client list — every outstaffing client also hires permanently. Replicate the referral channel. One referral partner (an advisory firm paid a commission on invoices) brought in three of the top five clients. Three or four more partners of the same kind — fractional CFOs, boutique law firms, real-estate advisors — is the cheapest client acquisition available. Go from 1.4 to 2 placements per client. Twelve clients, seventeen seats; the best account has three. Each added seat is ~$700–1,000/month of margin at near-zero acquisition cost. Double down on the verticals that repeat. Real estate (three current clients), boutique law firms (three placements in the past year) and small investment firms (three current clients) are where the book already concentrates; a buyer with an outbound sales function can run a focused campaign at each. For an acquirer with an existing sales team, the asset is a vetted bench of Eastern European and LatAm talent plus a delivery process that runs without the owner; plugging that into a larger pipeline is the return case.
