One Of America's Fastest-Growing Firms Depends On Sloane Staffing
The success of a digital marketing company depends on the quality of its staff. A poor-quality team will result in an ineffective, weak strategy and an inability to attract new clients. They need to know how to use the latest digital marketing tools, stay up-to-date with social media trends, and be familiar with a range of different marketing channels to grow a customer base.
Shay Berman, president of Digital Resource in Palm Beach, FL, knows this all too well. As one of America's fastest-growing firms - with dozens of employees and counting - he has been using Sloane Staffing for his staffing needs since 2016.
Berman praised Sloane Staffing's tailored approach to recruiting, its well-evidenced process, the reliability of its recruiters, and the proactiveness of its CEO Max Spanier.
"95% of Max's people have been great, if not higher," Berman said.
After five years with Sloane Staffing, Berman can see the benefits of Sloane Staffing’s hiring services. The most notable, in his opinion, was that Sloane Staffing knew how to prioritize quality over quantity and could help him quickly narrow down a pool with qualified candidates.
"We are always trying to staff on our own. Typically, I start staffing, and I'll go a week or two without getting someone. Whenever I need someone like yesterday or like a week ago, then I'll go to Max. Max will give me someone within minutes a lot of times," said Berman, who holds a degree in Advertising from Michigan State University.
It can be challenging for small businesses to find suitable candidates for their open positions in a volatile and changing job market. But having the right staffing partner can ease the burden. For Berman, Sloane Staffing has provided "the peace of mind."
"It's allowed me to have some peace of mind knowing that I can continue to have one of the fastest-growing companies in America and not have to stay overstaffed at all times because I can fill some roles pretty quickly," he said.
Overstaffing is one of the biggest pitfalls for small businesses since it results in higher costs and decreased productivity. Besides costing the company money, overstaffing can also lead to other problems such as lower employee morale.
A well-balanced staff is critical for maintaining a healthy space where employees feel valued and thrive professionally. This balance is often harder to achieve for small businesses since they typically have a smaller pool of applicants from which to choose.
