7 Best SDR Outsourcing Companies in 2026 (Pricing Compared)
August 3, 2026
SDR outsourcing in 2026 comes in two very different price bands: full-service US agencies charge roughly $5,000–$12,000 per month per SDR — that buys the rep plus playbooks, data, tooling, and management — while managed nearshore hiring runs from about $1,400 per month for a full-time, dedicated SDR at $8/hr all-in through a zero-fee partner like Virtustant. The right choice depends on what you're actually buying: an agency rents you a working outbound process; nearshore staffing gives you a rep of your own who builds pipeline — and a playbook — that stays in your CRM.
This list compares the seven best SDR outsourcing companies across both models, with real pricing, pros and cons, and a decision framework. No single vendor is best for everyone — the fit depends on whether you already have an outbound motion or need one built for you.
Virtustant isn't a full-service SDR agency — and that's the point. It's a zero-fee nearshore staffing company that places vetted, bilingual SDRs from Latin America with US sales teams from $8/hr all-in (about $1,400/month full-time). You get a first shortlist in 48 hours, an average time to hire of 3 days, and a lifetime replacement guarantee; Virtustant acts as the employer of record, so contracts, payroll, and compliance never touch your desk. Since 2021 it has made 2,000+ placements across 1,000+ US companies and holds a 4.9/5 rating on G2. The honest trade-off: you (or a sales lead) own the strategy, targets, and coaching — Virtustant delivers the dedicated talent, not a done-for-you outbound program. For teams that have a motion and want 8x more rep-hours per dollar, that trade is the whole appeal. See SDR profiles and rates.
CrewBloom connects US companies with pre-vetted sales and support contractors, primarily in the Philippines, claiming to accept only the top ~2% of applicants. Pricing typically lands around $9–$15/hr with flexible part-time or full-time engagements and no long-term lock-in. Pros: low cost, fast to scale seats, decent vetting. Cons: contractors often juggle engagements, the time-zone overlap with US buyers is thinner than nearshore, and management, tooling, and playbooks are entirely on you.
memoryBlue is one of the longest-running SDR outsourcing firms in the US, known for rigorous SDR training and a "try before you hire" model — you can convert your outsourced rep into a full-time employee later. Pros: US-market fluency, strong management layer, a genuine talent pipeline play. Cons: premium pricing (commonly $8,000–$12,000+/month per rep), which puts it near the cost of an in-house hire — you're paying for the de-risked ramp and the management wrapper.
Belkins is a well-reviewed appointment-setting agency that pairs SDRs with researchers and email deliverability specialists, typically from around $5,000/month. Pros: mature email-first playbooks, strong reviews for meeting volume, fast launch. Cons: the process, data, and learnings live with Belkins — when the contract ends, the machine leaves with them — and email-led motions may underserve products that need heavy phone work.
CIENCE runs "people-as-a-service" outbound: dedicated research plus SDR teams executing across email, phone, ads, and social, roughly $5,000–$10,000+/month depending on scope. Pros: serious in-house data operation, true multichannel execution, scales to enterprise programs. Cons: reviews are mixed on lead quality consistency, programs work best with meaningful contract commitments, and smaller SMBs can get less senior attention.
SalesHive is a US-based agency running cold email, calling, and LinkedIn on its own proprietary platform, with flat-rate pricing and month-to-month agreements. Pros: no long-term lock-in, transparent flat rates, US-based reps at lower price points than most domestic rivals. Cons: reps may split time across accounts on lighter plans, and the platform-centric approach means less of the process transfers to your stack if you leave.
Martal Group provides fractional SDR and sales teams focused on B2B tech, covering North American and European markets with multilingual reps, typically $4,000–$8,000+/month. Pros: senior sales talent, useful for entering new geographies, strategy included. Cons: the fractional model means your account shares rep attention, and pricing climbs quickly as you add dedicated capacity.

Full-service SDR agencies charge roughly $5,000–$12,000 per month per rep, with playbooks and management included. Hiring a dedicated nearshore SDR through a zero-fee staffing partner like Virtustant starts around $8/hr all-in — about $1,400/month full-time — with no placement fees and a lifetime replacement guarantee.
Use an agency when you need a proven outbound process built and managed for you, and the budget supports $5K+/month. Hire your own remote SDR when you have (or can define) the motion and want the lists, sequences, and learnings to accumulate in your own CRM at roughly a fifth of the agency price. Our guide to hiring a remote SDR covers the full process.
Yes. Nearshore SDRs from Latin America work US business hours natively and use standard VoIP dialers with US numbers. Virtustant tests spoken English before candidates ever reach your shortlist, and bilingual reps add coverage of Spanish-speaking US markets most teams can't touch.
Full-service agencies typically launch campaigns in 2–4 weeks. Through Virtustant, you get a first shortlist in 48 hours and an average time to hire of 3 days; expect another 2–4 weeks for any new rep to reach full daily activity volume regardless of model.
If you want the outbound motion managed end to end, the agencies on this list are credible options. If you want a dedicated, bilingual SDR executing your playbook full-time for about $1,400 a month, Virtustant places vetted remote SDRs from Latin America in an average of 3 days — from $8/hr all-in, zero placement fees, lifetime replacement guarantee.
