What is a fractional closer?

A trained salesperson who takes your consultations and sales calls on a monthly retainer, without being a full-time employee. You keep the leads and the customer relationship. We handle the conversation that turns an enquiry into a paying client.

How much does it cost to hire a remote closer?

For a placement, recruitment fees typically run 15 to 25 percent of first-year salary. For fractional closing, a monthly retainer plus commission is standard. Experienced remote closers commonly work on a base of 2,000 to 4,000 dollars a month plus 10 to 15 percent per close.

Do you replace our existing sales team?

No. Most clients have no sales team at all, and the calls are being taken by whoever is free. We either take those calls ourselves or build the process and hire the person who will.

Option two

Recruitment & placement

You want your own salesperson, kept in-house, on your payroll. We source, screen, and hand you a shortlist of remote closers whose numbers we have actually interrogated, because we know exactly which questions expose an invented close rate.

Candidates screened on documented numbers, not charisma

Option three

Sales process build

Sometimes the people are fine and the process is the problem. Calls with no structure, no discovery, no follow-up, and no way to tell which lead source is worth the money. We build the thing your team runs on, then train them on it.

Call structure and discovery framework
Objection handling written for your offer
Follow-up sequences and CRM pipeline setup
Reporting that tracks close rate per person and per source

The number this is all built on.

Every sales candidate claims a great close rate. Here is ours, with the denominator attached, which is the part nobody volunteers.

30.7%

Documented close rate

Of consultations that showed, at roughly 60 booked Zoom calls a week, against a 15% company minimum. Ranked number one in the company. The sales reports exist and we will walk you through them, including the bad months.

15 YRS

Full-cycle high-ticket sales

Legal services, insurance, and professional services across the US, UK, and Australian markets. Five of those years fully remote, selling to buyers who never met us in person.

18 → 26.4%

Team conversion lifted

Company-wide close rate taken from 18% to 26.4% by fixing structure and follow-up rather than buying more leads. The same work we do for clients now.

Why this sits next to a marketing agency.

Because the two problems are the same problem. Marketing decides how many people you speak to. Closing decides how many of them buy. Fix one and the other becomes the ceiling.

A firm booking 40 consultations a month at a $3,500 ticket closes six clients at a 15% rate. At 30.7% it closes twelve. Same leads, same ad spend, same month. The difference is roughly $21,000 a month, and it is invisible, because nobody ever invoices you for the consultations you failed to convert.

Most agencies stop at the booked call, because that is where their skill ends. We carry on, because that is where ours started.

Common questions.

What does a fractional closer actually do?

Takes your sales calls and consultations on a monthly retainer instead of a salary. You keep the leads, the branding, and the client. We run discovery, handle objections, ask for the business, and manage follow-up until the deal closes or dies for a stated reason.

What does it cost to hire a remote closer?

For a placement, recruitment fees typically run 15 to 25 percent of first-year salary. For fractional closing, a retainer plus commission. Experienced remote closers commonly sit on a base of $2,000 to $4,000 a month plus 10 to 15 percent per close. We break the whole market down in what remote closers actually cost in 2026.

Should we just pay commission only?

You can, and it will filter your applicant pool down to people who currently have no better option. That is not the same as hunger. We wrote the full argument in commission-only vs base plus commission.

Can you hire someone outside our country?

Yes, and for a remote role it usually widens the talent pool at no operational cost. Contractor, employer of record, or your own entity, each with different risk. Covered in hiring sales talent outside the US.

Do we have to use your marketing services too?

No. Plenty of clients take one side or the other. The two work better together because the same person sees both the cost per lead and the close rate, but there is no bundle requirement.

Marketing fills the calendar. This is what converts it.
