Three steps

Hire an Appointment setter in 3 steps

From your first brief to an Appointment setter working in HubSpot and Salesforce, you stay with one recruiter from scope through start.

Scope the Appointment setter role

Tell us the work to own, from appointment setter lead follow-up to qualification and booking, plus the systems, coverage hours, and outcomes that matter. We turn that into a focused search brief.

Review vetted Appointment setter candidates

We screen candidates for appointment setter lead follow-up, qualification and booking, and practical fluency in HubSpot and Salesforce. You review a shortlist with relevant context.

Hire and onboard your Appointment setter

Choose your candidate and hiring model. We coordinate the handoff into your tools, operating process, and first-week priorities.

What changes for your team

Best for sales teams that need qualified leads followed up and booked without gaps.

More meetings booked from leads you already have

Inbound and warm leads get worked within your response target, instead of following up whenever a closer finds a spare hour.

Fewer no-shows

Confirmation and reminder sequences run automatically, so fewer booked calls turn into an empty slot on your closer's calendar.

Faster lead response times

Leads get worked the same day they come in, instead of sitting in a queue behind other sales tasks.

Lower cost than an in-house SDR

One dedicated specialist costs less than the salary, tools and management overhead a junior SDR hire adds up to.

More closer time spent in meetings, instead of chasing them

Your closers show up to calls that are already qualified and confirmed, instead of spending their morning on follow-up texts.

Why teams choose HireHawk for this role

Booked meetings are the number that counts

We measure meetings booked and held, ahead of activity volume, and screen candidates against that bar.

Vetted before you meet them

5-Stage Vetting with AI-assisted screening. Fewer than 1% of applicants are presented to clients.

Bilingual where it matters

Bilingual English and Spanish talent from Latin America, strongest in medical and legal.

Two ways to hire

Fully managed global talent from $12 an hour, or US direct hire from 12.5% of first-year salary. Compare the two on our [staffing solutions page](/solutions/).

Frequently Asked Questions

Common questions about hiring for this role

How is this different from a lead generation specialist?

Your appointment setter converts leads that already exist into booked meetings on your closers' calendars. A lead generation specialist works a step earlier, building the list and running the initial outreach that creates those leads in the first place. HireHawk staffs both roles separately, so you get depth at each stage.

What counts as a qualified meeting?

Whatever your criteria say, instead of some generic industry standard. We build the qualification script directly from your discovery call and screen every single booking against it before it ever hits your closer's calendar, so your team only walks into meetings that are actually worth their time.

What CRM do you work in?

Your setter already works in HubSpot, Salesforce, Calendly and most standard sales stacks, so booking meetings into your calendar does not require you to change tools. Name your actual setup on the discovery call, and we match you with someone who already knows it, instead of learning it on the job.

Is this the same as outsourced SDR or outsourced BDR?

Often, yes, many teams use SDR, BDR, and appointment setter interchangeably for this exact work. Where teams draw a line, an SDR or BDR usually also prospects and builds the list, which HireHawk staffs separately as a lead generation specialist. Tell us your scope on the discovery call and we match the right one.

How fast can a setter start?

You'll see vetted candidates within 10 business days of your discovery call, so you're not waiting weeks to start interviewing. Once you've made your pick, onboarding takes 21 days, whether the hire joins your payroll directly or comes on as a fully managed global hire through HireHawk.

How do you handle no-shows?

Confirmation and reminder sequences are already part of the role, built to cut down on no-shows before they happen. Your no-show rate gets tracked and reported on its own line every week, never folded into a summary number, so you can see exactly how many booked meetings are actually showing up.
