FAQ

Questions about cost.

  • Why isn't the price on this page?

    It's a one-time placement fee per hire, and we share it with you on the first call, once we know the seat and before any work starts. You'll know the number before we do anything.

  • Is there anything to pay upfront?

    No. There is no fee to start a search, and nothing to pay for the brief call, the search or the shortlist. You pay only when you hire.

  • When exactly do I pay?

    When you hire a rep Level introduced to you. It's a single, one-time placement fee for that hire, with no monthly charges.

  • What if the rep quits?

    If the rep doesn’t perform and is let go within 60 days of their first day, we run one replacement search at no extra cost, and you have 60 days to make that hire. It doesn’t cover reps who leave for other reasons, such as a lack of leads. Sales seats do turn over (B2B sales teams average 35% a year turnover), so it’s worth having. How the guarantee works.

  • Do sales managers cost the same as reps?

    No. Sales manager and director searches cost more than rep searches, because they're harder searches with fewer qualified people. We share the fee for each seat on the first call.

  • Can we hire several reps at once?

    Yes. Put the number of seats in your brief, along with the territories, and we'll plan the searches together on the first call.

  • Do reps pay Level anything?

    No. Level is free for sales reps. The company that hires pays the fee.
