Companies constantly strive to discover a significant niche in the dynamic and fiercely competitive B2B SaaS market. As the industry is projected to reach over $195 billion (Gartner), the pressure to optimize marketing spend and achieve a substantial ROI is more pressing than ever. Gartner research shows tumbling levels of productivity for tech investments in marketing, with utilization rates falling from 58% in 2020 to all-time lows of 42% in 2022, indicating a potential misalignment between marketing strategies and business outcomes.
In this challenging scenario, the mantra for success is to "do more with less." At this critical juncture, ShiftLeft emerges as a beacon of innovation and expertise, offering a unique proposition: a two-in-one package of senior demand generation and product marketing expertise, enabling companies to "do more with less." But how does this translate in terms of ROI? Let's investigate the numbers and market trends to illustrate the outsourcing advantage.
The Hidden Costs of Traditional Hiring
While offering the benefit of in-house collaboration, traditional hiring comes with a hefty price tag. The focus often narrows down to the annual salary of the new hires, overlooking the myriad of associated costs. Benefits, health insurance, and potential severance packages are substantial expenditures that add up quickly. Moreover, the internal resources spent on the recruitment process, including hours spent by existing employees on interviews and onboarding, can be significant. In this landscape, the ability to "do more with less" becomes not just a strategy but a necessity.
According to new benchmarking data from the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), the average cost per hire was nearly $4,700, not including the additional costs of benefits and other perks.
