BUSINESS SOLUTIONS Larry Jones with Insperity and Chris Rude with Arizona Business Bank

Insperity is a 30+ year old company that has assisted over 150,000 businesses and over 2 million employees across the country. The company’s original founder and current CEO, Paul Sarvadi envisioned making business owners’ lives easier by taking HR and administrative burdens off their plates. So he decided to start a company with about 600 sq ft and one phone. Since then, Insperity has grown to a 3 Billion dollar company by simply helping clients also reach their goals. Insperity uses the same methods we have used internally to help businesses run better, grow faster and make more money.

Insperity is based in Houston, with 60 offices across the country. They are dedicated to helping level the playing field for small businesses to compete against larger corporations by helping them attract and retain top talent with big company perks and benefits. Insperity create efficiencies by bundling many of the items that you already pay for as a business owner like payroll, administrative support, employee benefits, workers comp and local HR support with customized service plans. They also help a small business mitigate risk, while keeping up with all tax and government compliances. Taking all of these items off the plate of the business owner, lets them focus on what they do best and to grow their business.

Larry Jones is going on his 2^nd year with Insperity and it was their passion to help small businesses that drew him to this team. Larry grew up around several family businesses and he has seen first-hand what the burden of running a business can be like. His parents had many struggles running their businesses, and he’s seen similar struggles with friends and extended family that run their own businesses too. Insperity help business owners manage this burden of being an employer and help create some efficiencies in bundling many services together.
