8 It has been an exciting journey of learning. I entered into this business venture with no experience. ADRIA I started this journey about six months ago. In fact our first meeting was held on Labor Day in It has been an exciting journey of learning. I entered into this business venture with no experience. I met once a week for a couple of months at local coffee and sandwich shops with Keith Stephenson. I was able to learn about the business, the brand, and the industry and ask questions freely without any pressure. After four months of meeting and sharing knowledge I entered into a licensee agreement to own and operate my own Labor Force office. I m now about two months away from opening my own location. Keith and the other business owners are very knowledgeable and helpful in assisting me with my office opening. They assisted me in every step of the process from helping recruit and select staff, to advising me on my incorporating options, insurance and banking needs, to helping me choose the best office location. I have not felt alone one time in the entire process. I looked at several other business models in the staffing industry and Labor Force by far superseded the competition. The low licensee fee, affordable and practical start-up cost, business coaching and consulting, and willingness to provide personal hands on assistance made my decision of choosing Labor Force very easy. They have educated me not only about the staffing industry and Labor Force but how to be a successful business owner. I am very pleased with the process and I m excited about my future!
