November's Theme: From Solo to Staff: Hiring Your First Employee
Thinking about hiring your first employee - or growing the team you already have? There’s a lot to figure out before that first person walks through the door.
Join Virginia Keel of Keel Support Services LLC and Patrick Penley of Payroll Management Inc. for a practical conversation about the HR and payroll side of hiring. We’ll cover everything from employee vs. independent contractor and basic policies to onboarding, wage and hour considerations, personnel records, payroll setup, common mistakes, and the things small businesses often don't realize they need until there's already a problem.
Bring your questions - especially the ones you’re not sure you’re supposed to be asking yet!
Most importantly, Start Up Sessions are a chance to connect with people who understand the challenges - and opportunities - of starting and growing a business.
Startup Sessions are made possible through the support of our season sponsor, the Androscoggin Valley Council of Governments (AVCOG), whose commitment to entrepreneurship and small business development helps make these gatherings accessible to our community.
We'll have complimentary beverages available, including soft drinks and a selection of beers, to help keep the conversation flowing.
Free and open to all.
