I believe that every business can benefit by marketing and selling better and that newer forms of advertising like a web video can give you that transformational edge that separates you from the pack and helps you win deals. In this post I tell the story of how transformational advertising played a big part in helping me make that first hard-to-come-by million in the 1980s. I mention all this in no small part because Staffing Talk has started a web production division for staffing companies.

Kinzy does a great write up on the service here.

Also in this month’s newsletter we feature an incredible employee, Ashlee Brace, who has been bringing on funding and franchised clients for us faster than a Tom Cruise space pod. She’s one of the first winners of our employee-of-the-month award, a program that we should have started years ago.

The indefatigable Dalyce Brell gives you the low down on pricing your services and how to use Tempworks enterprise to manage the process.

As always, thanks for taking the time to let me share with you and have a great start to the summer.

It’s my pleasure this month to announce as an exclusive offering to Tempworks clients an executive overview on the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare or ACA) by our CEO, David Dourgarian. The paper discusses the ramifications of the law and suggests specific business processes and software practices to best deal with it. If you are interested in it, please request it through our VP of Account Management, Susan Wurst.

Also, this month we unveil our new job board product. As you know, candidates approach job postings with no small amount of apprehension. Anxieties increase when the job search is slow or the postings aren’t displayed attractively. Poorly executed, the candidate abandons the process and moves on. I’m happy to share that Pete Klein, our lead designer, brought the best of both speed and attractiveness to the product, and the result should be better job boarding for our clients.

I hope you also enjoy this month’s articles on documentation and on Hugh Gilpatric, a star new Account Manager. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know Hugh over the last six months. We both share a big interest in endurance sports like running (he does marathons, I do quarter-miles on the treadmill). Thank you and have a great Easter holiday.
