Fast, productive and busy week, ending with two more newly established brokering relationships with some top tier employee leasing providers and two insurance agencies that we’ve formed marketing agreements with to help more business owners in their service areas.
What’s great about the employee leasing industry is how it continues to evolve, with more services, benefits and unique options available to help business owners. For example, we connected a small chain of supermarkets (grocery stores) in Missouri with a PEO company that was really struggling with payroll and human resource services. They had an excellent workers’ compensation history, so the PEO provider simply carved that portion of the services out, to manage just the problem areas.
A few other industries we’ve been consulting with to provide an employee leasing solution include:
1. A mining company out of Montana. Faced with one of the state’s highest workers’ comp rates, we were able to help them save 27% on their annual workers’ compensation insurance premiums.
2. A structural steel company out of North Carolina. This company recently had an increase in their experience rating of almost 38% based on two expensive work comp claims. Their overall history was excellent up to this time period and the employee leasing provider we helped place them with, virtually erased that increase.
3. A renovated golf resort in Tennessee. The owners have previous experience with employee leasing services and understand the valuable benefits. They’re able to get started with no money down on their workers’ compensation, with a 35% discount off the current Tennessee state rates.

What services do you need? “Picking the right PEO is of paramount importance,” says Sheridan. The PEO should be certified by the Employer Services Assurance Corporation, have experience in the client’s industry and cover that company’s territory, he says. Also bear in mind that some PEOs specialize in a Web-based high-tech approach, while others are focused on face-to-face support.
Remember — each PEO is different, and business owners would do well to read the fine print.

Maybe a hand full of times each year I’m asked about the personal guaranty on an employee leasing contract. Why is it there and what’s the purpose?
The main purpose of this area in the contract has to do with payroll. Here’s the scenario: If Joe, the owner of ABC Plumbing, calls in hours for payroll on his employees, then closes the business the next day and takes off – the PEO is responsible for paying the employees who got ditched.
So, if incorporating can shield you personally from liability as a result of bad business practices – this section can strip that privilege away and in this case allow the PEO to go after Joe personally. I’m not aware of any other cases or regular issues that arise where the personal guaranty has been used. If you know, write me a note - I would be interested in hearing about it.

As an Employee Leasing/ PEO Broker who works and communicates daily with a number of PEOs nationwide, I really get a feel for the direction a PEO is headed. What exactly does that mean? Well, for starters- as a PEO broker, I view my business as a potential A+ customer for the PEOs we work with.
Why use the word potential? Because if I’ve been sold on the value, benefits and services your company can bring to specific clients, then we can begin a business relationship - similar to the process of selling directly to clients. Just the same, after we begin this association, I need regular affirmation on the value of doing business with you.
Inform me on what’s happening with your PEO - new programs, customer reward incentives, document changes, etc. Don’t be afraid to brag a little. As a broker, I want to see that you’re unique and have a clear difference between you and everyone else.
Send me your monthly newsletters and customer success stories. Update me on annual benefit renewal dates and pricing changes. Call me about creative offers you have in place for new clients. In short, treat me as though you would an A+ customer– and I’ll be one!
Unfortunately, many PEOs don’t understand this basic business practice, and for many- the clock is ticking. If you’re the type of PEO that shares my attitudes and beliefs, please call or write - I’m always interested in building new relationships.

If you’ve considered weighing the benefits of Employee Leasing/PEO services for your business, talking with a PEO broker can save you a lot of time, money and frustration. With literally thousands of options and each claiming to be your best choice where do you start?
Unlike company-employed salespeople, PEO brokers represent more than one employee leasing company, so they can offer clients a choice of service providers.
Each employee leasing company is unique in their offerings. Their workers’ compensation and benefit plans have very distinct differences in coverage and costs. They service different industries, markets and states. The job of a PEO broker is to save you time by doing the background work for you- traveling to each PEO, communicating with the principles and management. The PEO broker should know who can successfully service all the needs of your business.
PEO Brokers will:
1. Allow you to communicate openly about the needs of your business without the anxious feeling of the company sales pitch to follow.
2. Quickly send out (RFP) request for proposals to PEOs that qualify for your business.
3. Direct all communication, saving you from unwanted sales calls.
4. Present you with all the proposals and discuss options and strategy.
5. Continue to advise you over time to keep employee-related cost factors to a minimum as your business needs change.
As the employee leasing industry has grown, the PEO broker has become a vital asset. All the advantages ultimately favor using them for independent representation, therefore having qualified employee leasing companies competing for your business.
