You're doing the work.
So why are you only taking home a tiny fraction of your hard-earned fees?

There's no reason you should be losing 50-80% of your hard-earned billings to pay for 'overhead' in a big recruiting agency. Accounting, legal/contracts, payment processing, invoicing, collections, and admin are all automatable. HeadRace gives you all of this for free, thereby increasing your take-home by 2-3x through cost savings alone.

Before HeadRace, I was flying by the seat of my pants in starting my new recruiting firm. Sure, I felt confident about my ability to find, attract, and land talent for start-ups, but when it came to contracts, terms, and payments, I really am thankful for HeadRace helping me through it all. A product built by a team with pedigree and domain knowledge at this level – Sign me up for that all day!

HeadRace providing back office services is a game changer. I've been able to focus entirely on recruitment from the beginning without having to address the ramp up and overhead costs of starting my own recruitment firm. Their software provides contracts, terms, back office, payments that are all entirely set up from the start, free of cost. At the end of my first year, I made double what I did at my previous agency.

How much does HeadRace charge?

What about year-end taxes?

Don’t worry about having to sort through a bunch of forms from various clients. We handle everything and directly issue you one 1099 at the end of the year. Simple.
