Wine by Lamborghini faced a common e-commerce challenge: scaling sophisticated marketing without the right talent.
With The Starters, Lamborghini Wine finally had access to the kind of e-commerce talent that matched the brand’s own commitment to excellence and precision.

Sans were just gearing up for their next phase of growth, and needed to build a team of marketers & creatives that could help support the business through that process.
By hiring through The Starters, Sans has been able to grow their business significantly over the past year, and plans to continue to use the platform for future fractional needs.
We had a hard time tapping into quality talent, and we certainly had a hard time finding a good quantity of quality talents. The Starters came at the perfect time for us.

Birddogs was looking for a top-notch UI/UX designer with experience with apparel e-commerce brands.
They ended up with an elite UI/UX designer that went above and beyond in delivering for the birddogs team. Not only was the work great, but The Starters made the recruiting process quick and easy.
We love that The Starters focuses exclusively on vetted e-commerce candidates, which makes our search much easier.

Is this right for you?
Built for you if...
You’re scaling a brand and need senior expertise without paying a senior salary
You’ve hit a wall that your current team can’t solve and you need someone who’s been there
You’re making a hire and want to hire the best
You want to learn from the perspective of top e-commerce operators rather than generic or AI-generated content
Not the right fit if...
You need a full-service agency to handle everything end-to-end
You value the cheapest talent over the best talent (go to Fiverr)
You're not in the consumer or e-commerce space (e.g., local services businesses, enterprise SaaS)
You don't treat your team members with the respect they deserve (we want our Starters to have a great experience too)
The Starters has been an incredibly helpful platform for us to find great talent for part time/consulting/project based work
@JaiDolwani is building something pretty incredible. Imagine a MarketerHire without the insane up-charge on the freelancer's fees.
Found an amazing affiliate consultant via Jai's The Starters - highly recommend checking it out!
We've hired multiple great freelancers on The Starters.
Not a sponsored post, but what @JaiDolwani is building is a serious value add.
Def check it out if your team needs a little freelance support.
I just had an amazing convo with @JaiDolwani 💪
He's building The Starters for ecommerce stores looking to hire fractional folks at a reasonable cost.
It's 5X better than both MarketerHire and Upwork.

@JaiDolwani
If @JaiDolwani ever decides to raise capital, invest.
Tried to source 2 freelancers on http://hirethestarters.com. Neither worked out.
2 days later he comes back with two new (not previously on the platform) freelancers within budget & already vetted.
He is him 🔥

Shoutout to Jai Dolwani and his platform, The Starters, for the freelance hiring help throughout the process to bring this launch to life
I've been super impressed with the level and quality of talent on the platform.
The Starters has been the ultimate growth hack for our business
Excuse my language. But I'm f***ing stocked.
Went through your links and the talent seems unreal!
Just wanted to shoot you a note to say how grateful I am to you and The Starters. Getting access to quality, vetted candidates for projects so quickly is truly game changing.
“Super helpful to find pre-vetted talent that is qualified and can come in swinging to a business challenge without the hassle and worry of a sourcing/agency fee on a candidate that might not work out.”
“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-serve and white glove.”
The ui is extremely beautiful. It not only is clean, but I can see who worked where, what value they could add, and how much time commitment I could expect from them before I ever engage.
The talent is crazy. To think that some people were untouchable and then to see them on Starters definitely has me beyond stoked for the future of talent Ill be able to hire from the Starters.
Access to top tier talent for young startups that may not have the funds to have access to the that level of expertise on a full time basis. We have been able to work with someone with excellent experience in the industry at a fraction of the cost.
“Working with The Starters has had a massive impact on our business - we have moved faster in the past 3 months than we had in the previous 12 months.”
“What I appreciate most about The Starters is its commitment to quality. As a scrappy e-commerce business, finding skilled freelancers is crucial, but it's often like finding a needle in a haystack. The Starters eliminates the guesswork by pre-vetting top-tier talent who have actual experience with successful e-commerce brands. This saves us time and instills confidence in our choices.”

Just wanted to shoot you a note to say how grateful I am to you and The Starters. Getting access to quality, vetted candidates for projects so quickly is truly game changing.
“Super helpful to find pre-vetted talent that is qualified and can come in swinging to a business challenge without the hassle and worry of a sourcing/agency fee on a candidate that might not work out.”
“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-serve and white glove.”
The ui is extremely beautiful. It not only is clean, but I can see who worked where, what value they could add, and how much time commitment I could expect from them before I ever engage.
The talent is crazy. To think that some people were untouchable and then to see them on Starters definitely has me beyond stoked for the future of talent Ill be able to hire from the Starters.
Access to top tier talent for young startups that may not have the funds to have access to the that level of expertise on a full time basis. We have been able to work with someone with excellent experience in the industry at a fraction of the cost.
“Working with The Starters has had a massive impact on our business - we have moved faster in the past 3 months than we had in the previous 12 months.”
“What I appreciate most about The Starters is its commitment to quality. As a scrappy e-commerce business, finding skilled freelancers is crucial, but it's often like finding a needle in a haystack. The Starters eliminates the guesswork by pre-vetting top-tier talent who have actual experience with successful e-commerce brands. This saves us time and instills confidence in our choices.”
