Can a PEO reduce your liability? Yes! A PEO partnership is based on co-employment. As a co-employer, the PEO will come alongside you and help you shoulder the burden of risk and liability. You can trust them because they have skin in the game. And because the PEO serves as co-employer for hundreds of other companies as well, they can bundle all of those employees together and get big business benefits for you without the huge costs you would face on your own.

When Shipping Goes Wrong: Handling Damaged Equipment and Protecting Your Business As a self employed with a partner calibration lab, I recently encountered a #challenging situation. A client's valuable equipment arrived damaged, despite being in working order before shipping. This experience highlighted the importance of proactive measures and careful #negotiation when things don't go according to plan. Here are my key-takeaway from this situation : Documentation is Crucial: Before any equipment leaves your client's hands, request photos or videos demonstrating functionality. Similarly, meticulously document the condition of any items you receive, especially high-value ones. Insurance is Your Safety Net: Explore insurance options for both you and your clients. This can cover damage in transit, providing peace of mind. Choose Couriers Wisely: Investigate courier reputations. Ask about their damage protocols and any included insurance coverage. A more expensive service might save you money in the long run. Communication is Key: If damage occurs, contact your client immediately. Transparency and a solution-focused attitude will go a long way in preserving the relationship. Negotiation Tactics : Seek Shared Responsibility: Consider if splitting repair/replacement costs is fair, especially if it's unclear where the damage originated. Have you faced similar #challenges? Share your #experiences and the preventative measures you've implemented to protect your business and how you have negotiated it with your client ! Thayanandan Samiappan Kandiar

It is worth noting that many companies may exhibit apprehension when considering collaboration with brokers. Nonetheless, there exists a multitude of advantages associated with incorporating brokers into your transportation vendor list, as opposed to relying solely on carriers. These benefits are as follows: 1. Dual Insurance Coverage: Brokers offer a dual layer of insurance coverage, encompassing both their own coverage and that of the carriers they work with, thereby ensuring enhanced protection for your cargo. 2. Wider Geographic Reach: Brokers operate on a national scale, catering to transportation needs in all states, and boast a more extensive network of associated carriers compared to companies that exclusively engage direct carrier services. 3. Extensive Supply Chain Networks: Brokers possess well-established networks and extensive connections within the supply chain, facilitating smoother and more efficient transportation operations. 4. Contingency Planning: In the event that a carrier encounters unforeseen issues and is unable to fulfill a commitment at the last minute, brokers typically have a roster of alternative carriers at their disposal, ensuring minimal disruptions to your logistics. 5. Instant Credit Limits: Brokers are often capable of providing instant credit limits, streamlining the financial aspects of your transportation arrangements. 6. Comprehensive Service: When dealing with a customer requiring services for multiple locations, such as drayage or truckload shipments, brokers offer the convenience of a one-stop solution, simplifying the coordination of diverse transportation needs. 7. Rate Flexibility: Brokers have the capacity to work with owner-operators and various carriers, allowing them to tailor transportation solutions to match your target rates effectively. This flexibility enhances cost-efficiency and ensures that your budgetary goals are met. Please reach out to me at [email protected]

Your business has two sides. Why not focus on the one you’re best at? If your business involves chemicals, have you considered outsourcing a key side of that business… namely, the manufacturing of those chemicals? Let's put it another way. To make your business more profitable, it makes sense to let someone else do the ‘making’. Why? Because, when you outsource your manufacturing, you can anticipate a wide mix of benefits to your business. Such as? > Ready access to specialist expertise > Cost savings > Increased flexibility > Reduced risk It also means that you’re better placed to focus on what you do best. At Spanjer our clients often excel in one side of the business - typically sales & distribution. But manufacturing? Less so. And when they pass that aspect of their business to us, they see a rise in profits - and a noticeable decrease in business headaches. That’s why so many of our clients stick with us. Year after year. (You can hear why, in their words, in the full version of this post here: rebrand.ly/ivcn5qh.) So what manufacturing challenge are you wrestling with? Increased insurance costs? Compliance headaches? Or something else altogether? To see how Spanjer can be - not just a supplier - but also a partner in your business’s success, get in touch today.
