  • What are some examples of how businesses are using data for a forecasting strategy?
  • What is an analytics dashboard? How is it used?

  With unemployment at its lowest in decades, it is an employee's job market. Job seekers have the luxury to be more selective, and skilled employees are less faithful and exploring their options. With more jobs than people to fill them, attracting and retaining workers is one of the most challenging issues facing staffing agencies today. In this webinar, CTI Director of Credits & Incentives, Stephanie Banuelos will share insights on how employment tax incentives like the WOTC can increase your cash flow to fund recruitment efforts and differentiate your staffing firm. Learn strategies to offset the costs of staffing initiatives, while making your staffing firm more attractive as well as recruiting and retaining workers.

  As an entrepreneur in the staffing industry, you naturally want the lowest cost financing and the maximum borrowing flexibility. However many entrepreneurs fail to plan ahead so that they can reap the benefits of lower rates or higher borrowing flexibility.

  A growing staffing firm has options to finance the working capital needs that arise from growth. Each method of financing growth carries a cost. In addition to cost, different methods of financing might not be flexible enough to allow you to meet your goals. In other instances you might not be “eligible” for certain type of financing. This webinar seeks to help you understand different lending products by breaking them down by financing cost, ability to access, and flexibility.

  Data breaches occur every day. Hacking incidents are the most recognizable and expensive cause of data loss.

  The cost of a data breach and the reputation damage to your business after a breach occurs can be devastating. A well-designed insurance policy will provide the protection you need, and breach management expertise to ensure the breach is managed properly and in accordance with regulatory requirements. Federal and State laws require forensic, legal and credit monitoring services are in place after a breach to protect customers from the misuse of their personal information.

  The operations of staffing firms are generally not fully understood by brokers, agents and insurance companies who do not specialize in this industry. Their unfamiliarity with the unique business models leads to carriers declining or only approximating the exact coverages needed for optimum protection, ultimately increasing the cost of risk. Loveman, Kornreich & Steers, Inc. (LKS) has been a specialist in the Staffing Industry for over 25 years and was appointed the first “Industry Partner” of New York Staffing Association (NYSA) in 1992.
