"The Starters may be new, but is maturing quickly"
4.5/5
What do you like best about The Starters?

First, cost. I appreciate the transparency and competitive rates. Second, I can trust that each Starter has been vetted by a human, versus an algorithm. So much of marketing is an art that I wouldn't feel comfortable without that level of human proof. Additionally, when I need an individual or skillset that isn't currently on-platform, The Starters team will conduct a bespoke search for that person. I love the mix of self-server and white glove. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Starters?

The platform is new so it's not as fully-featured or fully-staffed as competitors. However, they are adding new features and contractors at an impressive rate and I imagine they will find parity soon. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"High quality vetted talent. No markups!"
4.5/5
What do you like best about The Starters?

Super helpful to find pre-vetted talent that is qualified and can come in swinging to a business challenger without the hassle and worry of a sourcing/agency fee on a candidate that might not work out Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Starters?

It's early stage so only a handful of talent has yet made it through the vetting process. Those who have are worth their fee but would love more selection and breadth across industries. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Phenomenal Founder Lead Company"
5/5
What do you like best about The Starters?

I liked the variety of well vetted options and true professionals on the platform. The talent is typically fairly priced and the support from the platform is much better than others I have been on before Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Starters?

I think their pricing/product model could be a little better so that you can still see people's profiles and connect with them in platform before paying. I also get that's their only advantage is the sourcing and need to prevent people circumnavigating the product altohgether. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Makes finding great talent really easy"
5/5
What do you like best about The Starters?

I love that I can hire some of the best e-commerce talent at affordable, hourly rates. I used to spend hours going through Upwork to no avail, and this platform makes the sourcing and hiring process super easy and affordable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about The Starters?

This isn't a downside for me particularly, but they're very focused on a few domains within e-commerce. Would love to see them expand into areas like product, ops, legal, etc in the future! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
