Real-Life Success Stories
KGBTexas- CEO credits Administaff for her
“resftul night’s sleep!”
The Company
You’re doing something right when you’re
selected as one of your city’s “best places to work.”
KGBTexas San Antonio, recently honored as such,
does it with an attitude of “We deliver Brand. New.
Ideas.TM to our clients each and every day to help
connect their message to their markets.” It has also
helped the company become the number one
marketing communications agency in the area.
Katie Harvey, president and CEO, adds that good
people and brainpower are her agency’s competitive
edge. “We are strategists. We know how to make
marketing communications impact a company’s
bottom line, and we are fanatics about client
service. This has resulted in long-term relationships
with our clients. That’s something you don’t see
every day in our business.”
The Challenge
KGBTexas is run on financially sound, solid
principles, and its employees are young,
cutting-edge thinkers, led by Harvey, who opened
the agency 13 years ago at age 24. “We’re only as
good as the brainpower we have in here, and I’d
put them up against anyone,” Harvey says.
Recruiting and retaining the very best talent with
that kind of brainpower is the key to KGBTexas’
long-standing success, and it’s critical in the highly
competitive advertising/public relations field.
The Solution
When a long-time office manager at KGBTexas
San Antonio decided to slow her pace and leave
the agency, she suggested Administaff, which
Harvey saw as a positive. “It always bothered me
to have all of the responsibility of compliance and
reporting (administrative issues) resting on one
person’s shoulders.” Health care cost containment
was also a huge issue to the agency.
The Value
With Administaff, Harvey hasn’t had to worry about
either the employee benefits her employees receive
or the filing and reporting headaches many small
business owners grapple with. “The health care is
obviously beneficial to everyone here, plus we have
access to so many human resources (HR) tools that
have been beneficial to everyone in the company.”
The Return on Investment
Harvey considers the greatest benefit of her
agency’s relationship with Administaff to be “a
restful night’s sleep!” She further says that other
business owners need to understand that “if you’re
looking for the cheapest (PEO), you don’t need
Administaff. If you’re looking for the best, however,
and for someone to truly make an impact on
your business, use Administaff.” She goes on to
emphasize that as important as reporting and
compliance issues are, “I didn’t want the cheapest
company responsible for it. I am a believer in
investing in my employees, why wouldn’t I do the
same with my business partnership?”
