Why PEO Consultants Is Different
You already know you need help navigating the PEO marketplace.
The real question is: Which broker do you trust?
What Makes Us Different? We Actually Care About Getting It Right
Here’s the reality: choosing the wrong PEO isn’t just expensive—it’s disruptive.
Unreliable payroll means your employees don’t get paid on time. Bad onboarding creates compliance gaps. Unresponsive customer service means you’re stuck troubleshooting problems that should have been handled by your provider. And if you’re locked into a three-year contract, you’re paying for subpar service with no easy exit.
We Eliminate That Risk.
We’ve done this hundreds of times. We know which PEOs have great technology but weak customer service. We know which ones excel with remote teams but struggle with manufacturing. We know the red flags in contracts that most business owners miss until it’s too late.
And because we’re with you after the sale, you’re never stuck dealing with a bad provider alone.

Our Team Is What Makes This Work
Most PEO brokers operate with a “spray and pray” model—gather your info, blast it to 10 providers, send you the quotes, collect the commission.
We built a different kind of team. Here’s who’s working on your behalf:
Chris Peterson
Founder & President
Chris brings over a decade of PEO marketplace expertise and a background in Industrial Engineering that taught him to strip problems down to numbers and efficiency. He approaches every client engagement the same way: find the waste, eliminate it, and build a better solution. His job is to make sure every recommendation aligns with your business goals—not a sales target.
Bill Dyrenforth
Senior Consultant
Bill has spent more than ten years in the PEO and HR technology space. He manages the full client lifecycle—from initial analysis and vendor comparison through contract negotiation and implementation. Bill’s focus is simple: make the transition seamless and set you up for long-term success, not just a quick sale. He stays current on industry shifts, carrier changes, and compliance updates so you don’t have to.
Mallory Kingsbury
Senior Analyst
Mallory is the one who makes sure nothing slips through the cracks. With a background analyzing complex financial data in the energy sector and an MBA, she dissects every PEO proposal line-by-line. Hidden fees? She finds them. Confusing benefit structures? She breaks them down. Mallory builds the clear, detailed comparisons that give you confidence in your decision.
What You Can Expect From PEO Consultants?
When you work with us, here’s EXACTLY what happens…
The Results Speak for Themselves
Since 2012, we’ve helped our clients save over $5.2 million in PEO costs. We’ve gotten 2,898 employees access to better benefits than they had before. And 80% of the time, we identify substantial cost reductions in areas like health insurance premiums, workers’ comp rates, or administrative fees that business owners didn’t even know were negotiable.
The average savings per client? Around 30% compared to what they were paying—or what they would have paid if they’d gone directly to a PEO sales rep.
FAQ: What Makes PEO Consultants Different?
Unlike most brokers who disappear after the sale, we provide lifetime support and advocacy. We’re there through implementation, helping with the transition, employee onboarding, and any technical issues. When renewal time comes, we review pricing to ensure it still makes sense. If your PEO drops the ball or service quality declines, we step in and hold them accountable. Think of us as your insurance policy against bad PEO service—we’re with you for the long haul, not just the initial placement.
We start with real conversations—not generic questionnaires. We discuss what’s working, what’s not, and where you want to be. We examine your payroll setup, health insurance costs, workers’ comp rates, compliance challenges, and any premium services you’re considering. Then you provide your information once, and we handle the rest—shopping it to our network of trusted PEO partners and managing all vendor communications. No more repeating yourself to five different sales reps or dealing with multiple follow-up calls.
