Joshua Blumenthal, CEO and Publisher
- Benzo Magazine

"Being in the publishing business,
cost containment, risk control and the ability to attract and retain
top freelance talent is critical. We selected iamindependent because
they are the industry leader in handling issues that surround 1099
liability. We are able to reduce our production costs by nearly
14%, while at the same time we now have a differentiator [through
iamindependent] to compete for top freelance talent."

“We did
exhaustive due diligence in selecting a service provider to handle
our contingent workers. We selected iamindependent because they
were able to meet our business objectives of reducing production
costs, accommodate our complex cost center billing process, eliminate
risk of independent contractor reclassification and provide to our
contingent workers a high level of service that compliments their
independent lifestyle.” See

Michael Anne Searles, Partner - Alternative Benefits
Consultants

"ABC [Alternative
Benefits Consultants] is a broker of PEO, ASO and other outsourced
employee services. We have always known that there was a huge market
for handling 1099's, but until we found iamindependent, there was
nowhere for us to turn. We have forged an incredible partnership
with iamindependent that has allowed us to better service our customers.
Through iamindependent we are now able to offer our customers contractor employment and 1099 compliance solutions, for which we are seeing
an increasing demand."

Jill Dougherty, MyWorkZone employee member

"Prior to
joining iamindependent I always worked through staffing companies
as their W-2 employee. I did not realize how much more money I can
make by working as an independent [through iamindependent], and
the flexibility is great too. I am now able to deduct business expenses
that I could not deduct by working as a W-2 through a staffing company.
The great part is that I can still use the staffing company to find
me work, and they [the staffing company] just pay iamindependent
for my services."

"Before
I started my new assignment my [MyWorkZone] assistant reviewed my
contract. Now that I am on the assignment, my assistant does all
my invoicing, collections, tracks all of my reimbursable receipts
and other paperwork. [iamindependent's] Insurance rates and retirement
plans are better than those I could ever get on my own. At the end
of the day, I have more billable hours, more money in my pocket
and fewer headaches." |

Babu Ramalingan, MyWorkZone employee member

"I found
my own contract at a client, only later to find out that the client
doesn't engage [self-incorporated] independent contractors directly.
They told me to speak to iamindependent. At first I must admit I
was skeptical, but iamindependent not only allowed me to keep my
independence, they [iamindependent] actually simplified my life.
They now handle all my billing and collections, and their hefty
business insurances would probably allow me to work at any company
I want to when this contract is done."
