"Do what you do best, outsource and delegate the rest."
Running a business can be such a rewarding experience- but it can be extremely demanding, as well. Let's face it, most of us jump into business ownership because we believe we can do things better, be more efficient and provide better quality than what we experienced as employees.
What we don't consider is the "business of running a business". Sure, we understand hiring and training employees, negotiating wages and dealing with some unwanted paperwork is part of the process, but those things can quickly become a full time job on their own.
New business owners are thrown into a world filled with things like matching FICA taxes, workers' compensation and general liability insurance. 941 reports, deposits and audits become part of your working vocabulary.
And then you begin to question that "great idea" you had to run things on your own.
I've seen the stories hundreds of times- people who have terrific restaurants, build quality custom homes or service their pool cleaning customers like no one else- they are the best at what they do! Getting customers isn't the problem. Controlling employee-related costs and keeping up with all the paperwork is what keeps them from maximizing profits.
Employee leasing/ PEO services jumped into the business world roughly thirty years ago with a simple concept- giving employers back their precious time. When employers outsource their payroll, reports, audits and many other time-consuming hassles to a PEO, they can turn their focus toward running their business.
By managing hundreds of payrolls for business owners, the employee leasing company can do processing of payroll cheaper than an employer could do on their own. Plus, the PEO buys workers' compensation for thousands of employees which enables employers to save money and reduce their overall costs.
The employee leasing company offers other services, including group benefit options that even the smallest of employers would have access to, and an HR (human resources) professional on staff to answer questions and keep employers in compliance with every new business regulation.
This relatively young but simple concept has flourished over time. Employee leasing companies are now represented in every state and they service a variety of industries. In fact, PEO growth has been so dramatic in such a short period of time the U.S. Department of Labor released an significant statistic. The Department states that "by the year 2020, more than half of American employees will receive their paychecks through an employee leasing company."
When you think about it, employee leasing services follow common business strategies that well-known executives have been preaching for years- "Do what you do best, outsource and delegate the rest."
So, can employee leasing really cut "the costs of doing business?" Definitely! The PEO will allow you to concentrate on building your business while controlling your administrative costs. How much you'll save depends on your current situation.
