Hiring The Wrong People Can Ruin Your Marketing Efforts

Posted by: Kimberly Edwards In: Resources

Since those of you who read this blog are business owners, you must be concerned with hiring employees, and making sure those people are fine, upstanding individuals to keep your business on the “up and up”!

The hard work you put into marketing your business can be shattered if you have some Better Business Bureau complaints, investigations commenced, or charges filed against you, etc.

Problem is, how do you find out what type of people you are hiring?

Many business are turning towards Criminal Background Checks.

A little extreme, you may think…Well, not really…If you have a business that has anything to do with children or children’s products, you probably aren’t going to want to accidentally let a known child sex offender on board…That’s a vivid case…

However, if your business is one of financial services or requires employees to acquire payment information, you may not want a convicted felon for fraud taking orders…Criminal Checks could alleviate some problems you might encounter in situations such as these…

SentryLink.comI say all of this to tell you that I “stumbled upon” a neat service online at a site called SentryLink.com, which does National Criminal Background Checks.

They can check felonies, misdemeanors, sex offenders and more at state and county levels. Their services also include the ability to pull credit reports and driving records.

I guess I don’t need to harp on why this is so important, I just wanted to share it with you because I thought it could be indispensable when hiring for your company.

I hope you find this a Good Resource from The Small Business Marketing Blog! Until next time…

Happy Marketing,

Kimberly Edwards :)

We recently had a bad experience with care givers for my wife’s grandmother that is now resulting in prosecution for theft and forgery. Had we been more diligent on background checks, we could have avoided this whole situation.

I understand. Over the last several years we have had to take care of my wife’s mom and dad who both been diagnosed with cancer, so we understand were you’re coming from. We actually had to fire one group of nurses that were assigned to come in because they were just terrible, unclean, and not very professional.

The health care business is “a trip”. lol
