The End of the Traditional Staffing Branch Office Model
The days of having confidence in the fact that your local temp agency has a storefront in the strip mall between the pawn shop and vape store are over. Today’s modern workforce isn’t interested in trekking across town to fill out paperwork during limited office hours before 1:00-3:00 p.m. In today’s digital era, 24/7 accessibility is the key to cost-effective and fast recruitment.
Financial Downsides of Branch Offices
Here’s what traditional staffing agencies won’t tell you about their business model. Their branch offices come with high overhead costs that will cost you more at the end of day.
- High overhead costs: Rent, utilities, copier leases, and salaries for 3-4 employees.
- Need for multiple clients: These expenses force agencies to contract with dozens of clients in the same market.
- Challenges in a tight labor market: Scarcity of good workers leads to “portfolio management.”
- Portfolio management: Agencies prioritize clients with the highest markup when allocating workers.
Even worse, outdated staffing offices are ghost towns. Workers don’t want to apply there, and if your staffing support team is sitting in an offsite cubicle, how are they supporting your site? Since MyWorkChoice doesn’t have the overhead expenses of physical branches across the U.S., we pass those savings onto our clients in low markup rates. Does that mean less support or a lack of attention at your facility?
The MyWorkChoice Difference: Tailored Solutions for Your Business
We don’t believe in a one-size-fits-all approach with our manufacturing and distribution clients. Every location is unique, and we customize our flexible staffing solution to meet your facility’s needs.
There are no compromises or portfolio management, just our commitment to your facility and its success. We believe in a new way of recruiting that’s better for workers and businesses. It’s fast, efficient, and saves valuable time and money. Plus, we pass those savings along to our clients like Saddle Creek Logistics.

Comprehensive Support: Virtual and Onsite Teams
We may not have physical branches, but that doesn’t mean you’ll be going it alone. We’re a fully-managed staffing solution, which means you’ll have virtual and onsite management teams to support you 24/7. These professionals handle everything you would expect from a staffing partner:
- Onsite First-Day Orientations
- HR Issues
- Scheduling Workers
- Changes to Your Order
- Payroll and Timekeeping
With MyWorkChoice, you get the exclusive service you deserve from a cutting-edge recruiting model that appeals to today’s workforce. Take it from a distribution client who transitioned to our model:
“I have received nothing but positive comments regarding MyWorkChoice. Fill rates have been good, and the quality of the associates has been a nice surprise. Kudos to the MyWorkChoice team for doing a great job!” – Brian S., VP of Operations, Saddle Creek Logistics. On top of being tailored to your site, MyWorkChoice works fast. We can go from application to first day scheduled as quickly as 48 hours, which is critical in today’s “fastest to hire wins” labor market.
