First of a three part series.

Web Shopping for Employee Leasing and PEOs can be Tricky.

Where can a Busy Executive Turn to for Help?

Your a small business owner who is trying reduce costs because of the slowing economy. Your insurance broker just delivered your annual renewal rates. Workers compensation coverage increased another 20% because of a large claim you experieced 2 years ago. Your small group health insurance went up another 25%, and the only recommendation your broker has  ...... reduce the benefits again, and ask your employees to pay even more for less coverage.

Faced with this dilemma, many successful business owners will seek out solutions offered by an employee leasing company or PEO professional employer organization. Unfortunately, many executives have little experience shopping for employee leasing and HR outsourcing services. Some will ask an associate or their accountant for a recommendation, and others may let their fingers do the walking through the "Yellow Pages". 

Today, more and more busy executives are turning to the Internet for help.
