Choose the plan that fits your growth stage.

Every stage requires a different way of working together. That's why Up-Now offers multiple services, from direct placement to flexible commercial capacity.

Up-Now sources, screens and manages the process. The candidate is employed directly by the client. A fixed fee applies upon successful placement.

Smart when

The role is clear and you want to structurally add someone to your sales team.

Benefit

First candidates within 10 business days, with a clear fee and direct ownership by the client.

Consideration

You need to know upfront what profile you're looking for and why.

The candidate starts via Up-Now and can later transition to the client. This allows you to first experience how someone performs within the team before making a permanent hire.

Smart when

You want to start quickly, but want extra certainty about performance and team fit.

Benefit

Less risk on an important commercial hire.

Consideration

The arrangement requires a bit more upfront alignment on terms and timing.

The candidate works at your company, but remains on Up-Now's payroll. This is suitable when you need temporary commercial capacity without directly making a permanent hire.

Smart when

You want to scale up temporarily, handle a peak in demand, or staff a project quickly.

Benefit

Quick additional commercial capacity without a permanent staffing commitment.

Consideration

For the long term, direct hiring may ultimately make more sense.

Senior sales expertise on a part-time basis. Ideal for scale-ups that need structure, direction or commercial experience, but are not yet ready to make a full-time senior sales hire.

Smart when

Your sales process is still developing and you first need senior direction.

Benefit

Senior commercial firepower without immediately incurring full-time costs.

Consideration

Not intended as a full replacement for a structural sales team.

Our specialization

Focus on commercial roles that matter.
We focus on the commercial roles that determine growth, customer value and scalability within software companies. From GTM and Pre-Sales to Customer Success and Post-Sales.

GTM

For roles that accelerate growth, open new markets and convert commercial opportunities into pipeline. Think of profiles strong in prospecting, sales development, account management, new business and building relationships with new clients.

Customer Success

For professionals who ensure clients actually get value from the software. They guide adoption, build lasting client relationships, identify expansion opportunities and contribute to retention, satisfaction and growth within existing accounts.

Pre-Sales

For technical commercial profiles that guide clients through the solution before the deal is closed. They translate complex software into clear value, manage demos and POCs and help prospects understand why a solution fits their challenge.

Post-Sales

For roles that ensure a strong client experience after the sale. Think onboarding, implementation, support, technical account management and optimisation, so clients get off to a good start and remain successful with the solution in the long term.

Involvement. Integrity. Entrepreneurship.

These three qualities predict whether someone will grow or remain stationary.

  • Involvement – Does someone show ownership? Do they want to contribute to the team and the bigger picture?
  • Integrity – Is someone reliable in communication and execution?
  • Entrepreneurship – Does someone see opportunities, take initiative, dare to move?
