PEO For Sole Proprietors: Does It Pencil?
On the surface, it would be easy to decide that your one-man or one-woman band wouldn’t benefit from partnering with a PEO. But, that most often is not the case. In fact, there are some very compelling reasons why you should investigate a PEO for yourself.
How a PEO can help you with Human Resources
Human Resources can make or break your company - in my opinion; HR sets the tone and culture of your company. Getting your product/service, business model, and HR right, in the beginning, are vital to your business’s survival.

A PEO streamlines your payroll, employee benefits, and workers’ compensation as well as HR administrative tasks.

The PEO reduces your cost, frees up your time to focus on your business, and helps you attract and retain the best talent.

So if you are in a PEO that charges a Percentage of Payroll, it’s in your best interest to find out what you’re paying exactly and to have it fixed.
