GREAT NEWS FINALLY… SEPTEMBER 2011 SHOWING VERY STRONG POSITIVE TRENDS

The Nelson Family of Companies (NFC) had 245,203 weekly hours compared to 228,500 last year in the same period.  This is an increase of 9.3% over 2010.

For September month-to-date, NFC as a company is ahead of last year’s same period by 5.6%.  Nelson commercial staffing is up 9.11%, Nelson & Associates (our finance/accounting group) is up 20.10% and Nelson Technology is up 80% compared to the same period last year.  WorkforceLogic is up 1.5% overcoming the loss of a major revenue source earlier this year… which is a phenomenal accomplishment!  Well done to one and all.

NFC is heading into the final 2011 quarter with a head of steam and will likely end up with a very strong year!

Thanks to our wonderfully talented and productive staff!

BUSY TIME AND NO BLOGS

These past weeks, I have been super busy working on a game-changing business opportunity.  The work has been exhausting and fraught with the stress that comes with the times.  So, forgive the absence of BLOG information. Stay tuned…

STAFFING INDUSTRY ANALYSTS’ UPCOMING CONFERENCES

We are sponsoring SIA’s Contingent Workforce Summit and the Risk Forum again this year.  We will have a large group of WorkforceLogic staff attending the event October 4th-6th.  We will be hosting a select group for a special dinner event!  If interested, please contact Courtney Dickson @ cdickson@workforcelogic.com.

INTERNATIONAL EXPERTISE NOW!

We have established a new limited partnership with 90+ international experts through iWorkGlobal.  Our participation will be led by Jeff Phelps, who recently returned to the NFC fold after a short absence.  This offering will support WorkforceLogic and their multi-national customers.

KUDOS TO SPECIAL FOLKS!

PERSONAL

I spent last Sunday on the sidelines of the Niner-Cowboy pre-game (a TREAT) and then lived and died through the OT disaster!  I am still convinced that Harbaugh will take us to the promised land..sometime soon!  Keeping the Faith!

Unbroken, a World War II True Story of Survival written by Laura Hillenbrand is spellbinding.  I suggest you read this soon to better appreciate the many unsung US military heroes who have gone before us so we can enjoy the freedom we experience every day!

More Later!
