For those unfamiliar with HR speak, the Big Quit refers to the current trend of employees (especially millennials and gen z) who are chasing new jobs and sometimes even new careers. Folks are in search of a better work-life balance and more contentment in general.
The Big Quit has not spared Fort Worth.
Like most cities throughout the nation, it’s a job hunter’s market in Cowtown, and 2021 resignations have broken records here too. Mom and pop stores and Fortune 500s are seeing the same thing. Even inflated salaries are failing to attract people away from competitors. Employees are just so picky these days!
Go Go Me Agency owner Rendee Hahnfeld is helping many companies through this latest challenge by offering them some rather unique lifestyle benefits packages with which to reward their videoconference-weary employees.
Specifically, companies can buy blocks of concierge-level, personal assistance hours each month and gift them to employees. Employees then request everything from hours of to-do-list management, to personal shopping, to car maintenance management, and even in-home waiting services for deliveries and vendors.
Outside of the lifestyle benefits programs, if you want to get fancy, Rendee’s team will also coordinate your dream wedding or book a weekend getaway….to just about anywhere on the planet! Most of these services can be arranged and performed within 24-48hrs.
Before servicing the business community, Go Go Me Agency was known for award-winning service to personal clients. For 20+ years, Rendee’s Fort Worth based agency has provided lifestyle management services to high profile celebrities, entertainers, C-suite executives and high net worth families. But she also believes that the concierge lifestyle assistant experience should be accessible for all. The corporate concierge program is doing just that. It makes the ‘white-glove experience’ more accessible, but also frees up employee’s precious time for more focus and creativity.
Rendee describes the benefits program as “plug-and-play”, requiring no time from business owners. All management of the concierge benefits program are handled by her team. This is nothing like your health and dental coverage, it’s quite simply a monthly gift of hours, bookable through phone or email, allowing employees to outsource pretty much anything they need. And it’s all handled by vetted, local professionals and vendors. Imagine the boost in morale from getting time back!
Admittedly, It’s a twist on company perks, but it’s powerful; especially as corporate culture and work-life balance become increasingly important motivators. The pandemic has just made people much more particular on how their time is spent. While we can agree this is a wonderful self-realization journey for America’s employees, the swelling dissatisfaction in the workplace is also adding to a labor shortage nightmare; an HR struggle that Go Go Me’s staffing division saw unfold around the country.
“My business is about giving time back to busy people. We focus on the things that our clients find distracting, so they can focus on what’s most important to them. This not only attracts employees, but makes them want to stay.”
It seems natural that corporations benefit from their teams being happier and less distracted with mundane tasks. Businesses seem to agree, and since the corporate concierge division of Go Go Me Agency launched nationally in 2020, companies have been really receptive, typically seeing a reduction in turnover and recruitment spent over the first 6 months of rolling out the program.
Of course, all companies have different needs when it comes to building a rewards and lifestyle program, so the Agency offers free consultations for businesses that want to understand more.
