Dear Readers, Community, Friends,
Will you leave your mark?
Have you ever found yourself standing in a place, mesmerized by all that surrounds you, knowing that it was a culmination of efforts and dreams? This is where the folks of the Venardos Circus find themselves during every one of their performances. But they are not just patting themselves on their backs for accomplishing their dreams. They are inviting you to be a part of it. Shut the world off for a minute and tune into the vibration of joy and excellence of their craft, and let it fuel anything you want to do.
They visit Asheville yearly, and this is the final week for their 2022 show. If you want to elevate your dreams, just enjoy real-life art, I highly recommend going.
When embarking on the journey of setting up a permanent residence for our team, we found that taking a step back offered great insight. We found that our original plan to construct a stand-alone building wasn’t the right fit. As we explored other options, the perfect solution arose, and we are so pleased to announce that as of mid-December, Platinum Group will find its new home within the special, collaborative Hatch space on South French Broad Ave, downtown Asheville.
Hatch will plug us into a community of locally-owned businesses, an on-site coffee shop, nearby restaurants, and the best part: free parking! We want our clients to have easy access when picking up their payroll.
Clients: We can't wait to welcome you into the new space. You will receive all of the way-find tools you need to make picking up your payroll the first time a breeze.
Clients + Community: Once we are settled in, you will be invited to our office warming/ribbon cutting party. We can't wait to celebrate with you!
HOW CUSTOMER-CENTRIC HR CAN GROW YOUR BUSINESS
Reducing the churn rate is crucial in a business world where customers can easily jump from one brand to another. Every department in an organization becomes the marketing department, including Human Resources (HR).
BOOST EMPLOYEE RETENTION THROUGH A GREAT OPEN ENROLLMENT EXPERIENCE
As you may already know, solely retaining top talent in your organization with high salaries, flexible work hours, or even through an inclusive workplace culture is no longer possible. Offering a wide range of employee benefits plays a significant role in retaining your employees, emphasizing the significance of the yearly open enrollment period that usually starts in autumn.
Once again, my family and I had a wonderful weekend at the LEAF Festival to wrap up October. The weather was perfect and the music, incredible as always. Platinum Group was proud to sponsor such a special event, but it was great to forget about work for the weekend and just enjoy.
A special note to our clients: the Year-End Payroll Processing Guide is complete and will be emailed to you this week. As always, we are here to support you and answer any questions you may have.
