Your US operations lead, without the US headcount.
For UK and European companies launching in the US. We're your operator on the ground, with reporting that lands before your team's morning.
Sound familiar?
Your team is in the UK or Europe, but your customers, venues and suppliers are in the US.
No one on the ground
Permits, venues, vendors and contracts all run differently in the US, and mistakes are expensive.
Everything works differently here
The US day starts as yours ends, so problems wait until tomorrow.
Updates arrive too late
Grow in the US before you staff it
Two full-time US hires at $60k+ each plus benefits, months to recruit, and a fixed cost whether the market takes off or not.
Hiring a local team
One monthly retainer, up and running in weeks, with an experienced operator and AI reporting from day one.
Working with Hexton
A real US presence in weeks, at a cost you can scale up or down, before you commit to headcount.
