Confucius wrote, "Choose a job you love and you will never have to work a day in your life."

Most people spend a lifetime wishing for the right job, always yearning for a different career. Our jobs take up most of our day's time and the process of helping people find the one that's best for them is what the staffing industry is all about. It's an often overlooked industry, but one with tremendous potential in both earnings and self-satisfaction.

With a current value of $65+ billion in revenues, the staffing industry continues to offer anticipated growth over the next few years. Staffing firms employ more than 2 million temporary and contract workers on a daily basis. The services industry overall is one of the fastest growing segments of the US economy. You may best be familiar with one of these distinct areas that encompass staffing: Executive Search, Temporary Staffing, Personnel Placement and other services related to the provision of human capital -- any organization's most important asset and investment.

If you have ever been contacted by an executive recruiter, temped in an office or perhaps visited an employment agency, you know that staffing industry professionals positively impact the workforce and the careers of candidates in virtually all fields and skills. As a career, staffing offers the opportunity to play a vital role in the community and provides confident, aspiring entrepreneurs a viable career path as owners of a staffing industry franchise. In fact, franchising is almost equally as promising as staffing. Within a decade , franchising will comprise more than 50% of the retail economy, will employ millions of people and enable hundreds of thousands to realize their dream of successful business ownership.

What Lloyd Can Do For You

Lloyd is offering you the opportunity to combine franchising and staffing into your own business with one important advantage -- the foundation, support and guidance of an established employment industry leader that has successfully served the some of the nation's most prominent corporations and organizations for four decades.

Lloyd Staffing currently has a national network of 12-offices in 7-states. Our system has a strategic plan to grow aggressively in select states and we are searching for business professionals whose work history and accomplishments make them a good fit for possible ownership of a Lloyd Staffing franchise. Our goal is to find individuals with a history of success in areas such as sales, marketing, business development or human resources, and of course, who ultimately possess an entrepreneurial passion.

Since 1971, we have successfully served thousands of employers, job seekers and temporary employees. Our blended service concept truly embodies the entire spectrum of staffing, including temporary personnel, consultant referrals, contingency placement and executive search. And, because we recognize that the field of human resources has significantly changed its structure and focus over the years, we've added many complimentary staffing components including a relationship with a state-of-art, awarding winning vendor management systems (VMS) to enhance the support and resources we provide.

The Lloyd Difference

At Lloyd we believe the difference is in the details. First and foremost, Lloyd supports national certification, which means our staff takes continuing education and knowledge of the rules and regulations that govern the workforce very seriously. As advocates for industry-related education, we encourage national certification by our leadership and operations personnel. This is part of a “best practices” mission that translates into areas such as Marketing and Training.

Our Marketing division remains in-house. Ad campaigns, client initiatives and program execution are not outsourced so that franchise owners can receive very customized, targeted marketing tools. We are the recipients of many industry awards and accolades by both the National Association of Personnel Services (NAPS) and the American Staffing Association (ASA) for our print advertisements, client promotions and branding strategies.

How will you learn the business? Our Education Department offers staff and management training, which is done in many formats: in-person, in the field, in classrooms and via telephone or web technology. An answer to any question is always within immediate reach. Procedures are documented in comprehensive manuals and the Lloyd intranet provides instant access to forms, policy and operational know-how.

Industry Specialization

Many Lloyd offices have focused specialties in specific fields, taking advantage of the economic opportunities within their region or their own professional strengths. These include Healthcare, Finance, Information Technology, Life Sciences, Insurance, Supply-Chain & Logistics, Sales/Marketing, Architecture/Engineering, Graphics and Imaging, to name a few. This is because we draw experienced professionals from these industries who can take their field expertise and provide a true advantage to organizations needing to recruit and hire in these areas. This knowledge of terminology, salary levels and demands of specific markets are a tremendous value to our employment clientele.
