COMMUNITY FOCUSED + ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Today’s job market is extremely competitive, and staffing agencies serve as vital connectors between talent and opportunity. PrideStaff®, a national staffing organization with a distinctive localized approach, combines the strengths of local ownership with national resources, offering temporary, temp-to-hire and direct-hire staffing services across various industries, including warehousing, manufacturing, clerical and financial roles.
However, the company also has transformed staffing into something deeper – a community-building mission that benefits job seekers, businesses and local economies alike.
“PrideStaff plays a vital role in our community by connecting talented individuals with meaningful employment opportunities and providing businesses with essential staffing solutions,” explained Director of Franchise Development Noelle Sklar.
This dual focus – serving job seekers and employers – positions PrideStaff as a crucial bridge within its communities.
“Businesses – especially small businesses, start-ups and franchisees – play a significant role in their communities,” Sklar explained. “They are the pillars of their local community. They support families, provide life education and careers for people and solve customer problems.”
Beyond this, PrideStaff’s community-minded approach extends inward as well. The franchise has created a robust internal community among its franchisees, or “Strategic-Partners,” through various initiatives and collaborative structures.
“At PrideStaff, fostering a strong sense of community is a priority,” said Sklar.
The PrideStaff Brand Advisory Council, composed primarily of franchisees who are nominated and elected by their peers, helps shape the brand for collective benefit. Regular regional and annual conferences, along with Strategic-Partner-led regional calls and system update and marketing motivational Monday calls, keep everyone connected and supported.
Additionally, this internal community translates directly to external impact – not just in staffing but also in service and support. Each franchise location becomes a hub for local community engagement, with franchisees actively involved in their regions.
“Whether it is making contributions to food and clothing drives or volunteering their time for local charities, each Strategic-Partner also makes an impact in their respective communities,” said Sklar.
PrideStaff’s client referral program, Proud to Refer®, is another example of how community service is built into every aspect of the business. In this case, individuals can refer a business using a form on the company’s website. When PrideStaff matches a job seeker with the business, it makes a $100 donation on behalf of the referrer to a charity of their choice.
For entrepreneurs seeking a business venture with both profit potential and purpose, PrideStaff offers a compelling opportunity. The franchise combines industry-leading support, from site selection and training to IT, marketing and ongoing field consulting, with a business model in one of the nation’s fastest-growing sectors. PrideStaff earned ClearlyRated’s Best of Staffing Diamond Award for superior client and talent service, highlighting how its comprehensive support system creates a powerful foundation for success.
With PrideStaff, franchisees know they’re joining a community-oriented organization where their work creates meaningful connections within their local economies, and their PrideStaff community is with them every step of the way.
