The Secret to Scaling Without HR Headaches: Discover APW’s Monthly HR Support Lite Package

by Allison Hosgood

 

Running a small business is exhilarating and challenging in equal measure. The thrill of growth, the excitement of raising capital, and the anticipation of expansion can be quickly overshadowed by the daunting task of managing your most critical asset – your people. At APW, we understand that small businesses often feel too stretched to hire an internal HR team but too burdened to handle HR tasks themselves. This is where our Monthly HR Support Lite Package becomes your secret weapon.

 

Growing Pains and HR Strains

Imagine your company is on the brink of significant growth. You’ve secured the funding, the expansion plans are in place, but then reality sets in: you need people to execute these plans. Suddenly, HR becomes a pressing concern, and without experienced, knowledgeable support, your dream of growth could become a logistical nightmare.

 

Many small businesses resort to absorbing HR responsibilities into other functions. Maybe it’s the Finance team processing payroll or the Operations Manager juggling onboarding alongside daily duties. This patchwork approach can work temporarily, but the cracks soon show. Added job duties lead to burnout, increased turnover, and significant compliance and legal risks. Simply put, you don’t know what you don’t know.

 

One option is to work with a Professional Employer Organization (PEO). However, while PEOs offer a one-stop-shop, they often fall short on the personalized touch and can dilute your company culture. PEOs typically provide generic HR responses and support, failing to address the unique needs and circumstances of your company. Instead of offering tailored consulting, they typically direct clients to generic forms, links, or other resources, which may not resolve the specific issues you face. Additionally, PEOs can be expensive as they typically charge per employee per year. This cost can escalate quickly as your company scales.
