On the road again...

Last week Gregg Dourgarian, CEO of TempWorks, headed on the road for a sales trip across the midwest. He drove all the way from our corporate office outside of Minneapolis, MN to New York City. There were plenty of stops made to current clients and prospective clients.

With the recession now more real then ever, Gregg found a surprising amount of interest in our ability to process payroll and reduce the amount of administrative overhead. The amount of time, energy, and resources to keep back office functions completely in house are now being realized by many as an expensive process that is not necessary.

If you are reading this and would like a visit from us next time we are in the area, certainly feel free to contact us and let us know. Also, if you are intrigued by this short blurb and think that you are spending too much on back office activites; I would be happy to go further in depth as to what we can do for you.

TempWorks Pushes the Envelope on One-Stop Shopping

I would like to start with a quote from Steve Forbes, "The real source of wealth and capital in this new era is not material things; it's the human mind, the human spirit, the human imagination, and our faith in the future."

With the change in seasons, come some changes with the TempWorks sales team. In recent years TempWorks has worked to develop our products and services to provide a one-stop shop for current and prospective clients.

David Dourgarian, our President, has developed TempWorks Venture into an integral part of our service line. TempWorks Venture not only allows clients to receive necessary payroll funding, but also provides payroll processing and software all with one vendor. There has been a tremendous response from the staffing industry in regards to this new idea. Over the past year we have been able to add significant accounts that are looking to reduce the number of vendors and eliminate administrative overhead.

Just recently TempWorks welcomed Jack Terrana to the sales team. Jack is a seasoned salesmen and has been involved with payroll funding acquisitions for a number of years. Jack's experience and knowledge of the industry and the benefits that the Venture program can offer will certainly help not only TempWorks expand, but also help clients expand to reach new heights.

In addition to TempWorks Venture, our payroll processing division is in full swing. This program is for clients that are looking to reduce the amount of administrative overhead and the cost associated with paying multiple vendors. If a company is paying for both software through a specific vendor and payroll service through a firm like ADP or Paychex; TempWorks can significantly reduce the costs associated with multiple vendor and provide the entire package at a much lower cost.

With everyone down and out dealing with the economy, TempWorks has been able to surge ahead due to the innovation and advancement they have made with their products and services. In a time like this where your bottom line is more important that ever, its nice to know that there is a vendor out there looking out for your best interest. If you have the need to reduce the amount of vendors you write checks to, if you are looking to reduce the amount of administrative overhead, or if you are simply looking to save some money; give your industry friends at TempWorks a call and allow us to see if we would be a good fit.

I would like to end with a quote from Steve Jobs, "Innovation distinguishes between a leader and a follower."
