How to Start up an Employment Agency

Bookmark and Share

Starting an employment agency can be a very good idea, especially now that employment in Hong Kong is becoming high. A domestic helper agency can just be the right thing to put up since the demand for housemaids are increasing. If you are interested in this type of business, here are some pointers for you:

Take a look at your budget. No business can be established without a capital. There will be a need to buy some equipment and materials, and employ people who will make up your staff.

Check on the competitors’ pricing for you to get some idea on how you should set your own rating system. Your price should be competitive enough to attract both clients and applicants.

Find out what legal documents you need to process. One of the obligations that will be required by the law from you is to obtain all the necessary permits and licenses. You’ll have to know where to get these documents, how and what you should present for the processing.

The business site is an important factor. It should be accessible to your applicants. If your home is located in a good area, you can opt to place your office there. It will be more convenient for you and it will make you save a huge amount of money because you won’t have to pay for transportation and monthly rental fees.

Have a phone installed in your office. As much as possible, it should only be dedicated for the business, so avoid using it for personal use. Some clients and applicants may want to call. For this reason, that phone line should be kept open for them, as much as possible. Installing an answering machine, voice mail system or diverting calls to your personal phone promises a more efficient service.

Establish your marketing strategy. You can hire marketers or post announcements on different classified ads offline and online to get clients. You can also tell your employees that they will be given a reward for each referral that they make.

It will be quite important to keep the business alive by continuously receiving job orders. When there are more clients, the merrier. It means you will have more jobs to give to your applicants and better income is in store for your business as well.
