The starting point

This distributor needed dependable talent across departments — leadership, development, marketing, finance, and operations — but not just anyone. They wanted people who could own the work, align with U.S. workflows, and grow with the business.

What we built

With ADBM, they assembled a 12-person offshore team that feels less like outsourcing and more like an extension of their core: a chief of staff, a marketing manager, three junior project managers in estimating, a bookkeeper and comptroller in finance, a purchasing officer, and a four-person tech team. Each role was matched not just for skill, but for the right attitude, proactive communication, and the ability to thrive in a fast-moving, collaborative environment.

The result

Twelve critical roles filled without domestic payroll strain — roughly $207K in total annual cost against an estimated $973K domestic equivalent, about 79% lower. The company shifted from reactive hiring to strategic, scalable growth, with smoother operations, stronger retention, and more team capacity.

“After a thorough search for the right candidate, I can confidently say that the wait was truly worth it.” — Marketing Manager
