|
|
What started as a chance meeting and a simple thought to share office space, referrals and expenses quickly blossomed into ‘ThryvX’, launched in February 2020 just as the pandemic was quickly spreading around the world. Leading her own consultancy ‘ProcurePro’ since 2013, Jill Button, is an IT Procurement expert, and certified supply chain management professional. Corette Miller, Founder and CEO of her own small business ‘newINITIATIVES HR’ since 2007, is a certified HR expert. Together they found themselves embarking on a journey to found a new startup.
As they were building their businesses independently, they realized that many organizations, like them, also struggled to find the essential services that help a business grow and stay relevant. What was being offered in the marketplace was mostly reserved for large enterprises which for most small and medium businesses is not financially sustainable. Together, Jill and Corette saw this as an opportunity to show growing companies an effective and forward-looking way to continue doing business. Their underlying objective was to enable the businesses to operate and grow their revenue successfully even on a virtual platform. They decided to start by combining their complimenting service as HR and Procurement experts respectively to create a ‘one-stop-shop' for small and medium businesses.

DON’T CONFUSE ON-BOARDING WITH ORIENTATION
Orientation is a one-time event where a new employee is shown the basics of how to navigate the office from the break room to parking.
On-boarding is a deeper mentorship for the new employee ensuring the success of the employee. This helps the new employee grow and succeed in their new role.
80% of new staff quit within the first three months due to lack of support in the onboarding process. |
