Should you hire a full-time marketer or use Levered?
Hire full time when one channel is a full job for years and someone on your team can manage that person. Use Levered when you need several things moving now (ads, pages, tracking) and nobody to run them.
Both are good answers. They solve different problems.
The honest tradeoff
A full-time marketer gives you someone in the building. The cost is time to hire, time to ramp, and someone to manage them.
Levered gives you a senior operator and the full stack this week. The cost is that we are not in every meeting. Many teams use Levered until the role is clear, then hire.

Common questions
Should I hire a full-time marketer or use Levered?
Hire full time when one channel is a full job and someone can manage the hire. Use Levered when several things need to move now and nobody owns them.
Is Levered cheaper than a full-time hire?
Levered is $450 to $1,800 a week with no benefits, recruiting or ramp. Whether that is cheaper depends on the role you would hire.
Can Levered help us hire later?
Yes. We document the accounts and playbooks so a new hire starts from a working system.
Can we use both?
Yes. Levered can run the channels your marketer does not cover.
How fast does work start?
The first week is free and is real work once accounts are connected.
