PEO Advisory Solutions for 20–500-Employee Companies
Your CPA-led advocate for choosing, negotiating, and managing the right PEO, with full transparency on costs and compensation.
Most business owners assume a PEO will simplify HR and lower costs, until renewal time reveals hidden markups and vague service metrics.
Practicing since 1987, I have advised companies on tax, payroll, and compliance long enough to have seen both the value and the risks inside PEO contracts.
PEOAdvisor helps employers evaluate, select, and manage PEO relationships with confidence, aligning costs and compliance while keeping control in your hands.

What Should Employers Check Before Signing?
- PEO proposals do not always break out payroll tax markups and benefit load factors.
- Renewal increases appear as ‘admin adjustments.’
- Service metrics are rarely enforced without third-party review.
We show you what is inside the proposal before you sign.
