The IRS with little official fanfare and no real advance warning began a “national research project” to study (1) payroll taxes, (2) fringe benefits, (3) independent contractor, (4) expense reimbursements and (5) other related “payroll” issues.

Use of the phrase “National Research Project” seems fairly innocuous and is easily confused with the IRS’ more benign National Research Program. The goal of the latter is to design a strategy to collect data that will be used to measure filing and reporting compliance with the guiding principle “to minimize taxpayer burden as data are [sic] collected.”

How to choose quality, honest and dependable staff in less time than it takes to do an interview!

When was the last time you thought to yourself, “If only I had better staff…”

How do you go about choosing really great staff?

Not hiring the right person has cost business owners thousands of dollars in lost revenue, plus all the lost time that it took to train them.

Hiring employees costs a lot of time, effort and money only to have them leave or even having to fire them because they’re not at all what you expected.

One of the major problems in expanding a business, or even delegating things to get them off your plate, is selecting  the right people for the job.

How do you solve this problem of selecting the right person?

One foolproof way of solving this problem is to KNOW more about your prospective employees BEFORE you hire them. And now, this is possible to do.

We highly recommend three personnel tests that many of our clients use to know more about a person BEFORE they  hire them. These simple tests allow you to bring better staff on board. That’s smart money management!

We never hire anyone here without using these tests!

So what are these tests and how do they work?

Instead of trying to convince you of the accuracy of these tests, I am offering you a free test. Take the test and see for yourself how accurate it is.

There are NO strings attached to this offer. You take the test for free.
