My partners and I own a small marketing and sales consulting business. Like most businesses, we need to focus our time and energy on the programs, personnel, and processes that will improve our overall effectiveness and efficiency, so that we can continue to grow our customer base. Every minute I spend on administrative, payroll, and regulatory issues, is a minute not spent on building towards our company’s goals.
Using Simploy’s services has not only freed up time in our busy work week, but they have also measurably improved the quality of our operations. They provide the human resource expertise we sorely lacked and our employees deserved. They even developed a creative solution to smooth out the peaks and valleys of our monthly payroll expense, making our cash flow management all the easier. I highly recommend Simploy.

Mid-American Coaches is a family owned and operated company with headquarters located in Washington, MO. The original company began in 1927 as a commuter operation and operated that way until my father, Ralph Jones, bought the company in 1957. Since then it has grown from its small six-bus operation to a modern charter and tour motorcoach fleet. Many of our employees have been with us for more than 20 years. We have always considered them more like family than employees. They represent the key to our success because to our customers, they are Mid-American Coaches.
Just over 15 years ago we faced a difficult decision when we considered outsourcing our HR functions with the objectives of 1) providing more value to our employees, and 2) allowing us to focus more internal energy on growth. We made the move because we understood all the advantages and trusted the people involved.
It was a good move.
Since starting with the folks at Simploy in 1993, we have continued to grow and change with the times. Most importantly, we have come to know and trust the people who support us on payroll and administrative tasks; and David, who always responds and comes through for us as a consummate HR professional whenever we experience an employment related problem.
We also share common values, which makes for a solid personal and professional relationship. Over the years, we continue to receive caring and comprehensive services from David and the entire team at Simploy. Just recently, Simploy went the extra mile and found a hard cash savings of over $20,000 on our workers’ comp policy. That’s the kind of effort we expect and continue to receive from them.
I am most happy to recommend Simploy. If anyone has any questions about Simploy or our relationship, I would gladly discuss them.

We have been with the folks at Simploy now for more than six years and have truthfully never had a problem with the timeliness or accuracy of any services...from payroll to sticky people issues. I openly discuss the advantages of using the services Simploy provides for us with both my clients and vendors.
When it became necessary to make management changes at one of our locations, Simploy handled the termination issues smoothly and managed the recruitment and selection of new management most effectively. Thanks to Simploy, I now have a much more productive and profitable operation. I appreciate the advantages they bring in employee support, time and real dollars. Even more, I enjoy the peace of mind knowing that my people are being well taken care of and that they are not taking advantage of me.

One of the most difficult parts of my business centers on employee issues. A simple "payroll service" isn't good enough. I needed access to affordable benefit programs and options for Workers' Comp insurance. I need control over the entire human resource function, from making sure all new hires have the proper paperwork complete all the way to administering unemployment claims. I want my employees to feel like they belong to the best company in town. Most importantly, I need a trusted group of experts who can help to keep me legal. Simploy solves all of those problems (and more). If I were still practicing as a CPA, I'd be sending all of my business clients to Simploy.

I love the fact that you are local and I have a face to go with the voice. I never met anyone from (previous PEO) that I had to deal with. They were all located in other states. When I call you, I know you will always be very cheerful, professional, polite, helpful, and knowledgeable. If you don't know the answer, you will get right on finding it. You have taken care of everything that our company has thrown your way in a very timely and proficient manner!
I really like that I can go onto any employee on the Simploy Website and find out anything that I need to know. The website is very easy and helpful. Just log in and click to the left on the the screen and you are where you want to go.
I can submit payroll at 10:00 AM and it is done by noon. Payroll has been going really smoothly. Before, with (previous PEO) I could send over things that needed to be deducted or changed. Every week I had to check to make sure it was taken care of, because several times, things were put aside on their end. I feel very comfortable that you are on top of things. I do not worry at all.
I should say the employees love the fact that they can make changes to direct deposits and they are done right away. Before, it would take 2 to 3 payrolls before it would go into effect.
I am very satisfied with Simploy. No complaints here. I would highly recommend Simploy to any business.
Thanks for everything!
