SDR Cost Calculator

The true, fully-loaded cost of an in-house SDR team is far more than salaries. Add ramp, churn, recruiting, tools, and management, then see what outbound really costs to run yourself.

Your in-house team

Includes a team manager once you reach 3 SDRs. Defaults reflect common US ranges. Adjust to your reality.

True annual cost

Fully loaded, in-house

$573K

per year, all-in

Loaded salaries + tools$365K
Management$150K
Recruiting + backfill$16K
Ramp time lost to churn$43K
A full-cycle Outword engagement replaces most of this with one predictable monthly cost, and a senior team that is live in weeks instead of quarters.

We do not show a fake agency price here, because a real engagement is scoped to your market and goals. What this tool gives you is an honest in-house number to compare against. Most teams are surprised how much ramp time lost to churn adds up. Request a proposal and we will put a concrete, predictable figure next to it.
