Frequently Asked Questions
How is Strategic PEO Partners compensated?
We are compensated by the PEO you select, similar to how a mortgage broker works. This means our advisory is free to you — and because we represent buyers not sellers, we're incentivized to find you the best fit, not the highest commission.
How long does the PEO selection process take?
Most clients complete discovery, comparison, and selection within 3-4 weeks. Implementation with your chosen PEO typically takes another 30-60 days depending on complexity.
What size company is a good fit for PEO?
PEOs typically serve companies with 10 to 1,000 employees. The sweet spot for maximum value is usually 25-300 employees, where the economics of a co-employment arrangement are strongest.
We already have a PEO. Can you help us switch?
Absolutely. Renewal benchmarking and PEO replacement is one of our most common engagements. We'll analyze your current contract, benchmark your rates, and manage the transition.
Do you work with companies in all states?
Yes. We work with clients across all 50 states and have deep experience with multi-state expansion scenarios, which add significant complexity to PEO selection.
