A California PEO broker on your side of the table

Raenan Guadez is a licensed California insurance broker (Lic. #0G19556) based in the Inland Empire, with nearly a decade selling PEO at CoAdvantage, TriNet and SOI. He works for you, not for any one PEO.

Why California businesses use a PEO broker

California is one of the more complicated states to employ people in. It has its own workers' comp class codes and rates, strict wage-and-hour rules, and health plan options that vary by region. Every PEO prices all of that differently. A broker gets several PEOs to quote the same business and lays the results out side by side, so you're not comparing a sales pitch to a sales pitch.

What it costs you

Nothing. If you move to a new PEO, that PEO pays the broker. If you stay where you are, you still keep the comparison.

Who it's for

• Specialty trades: HVAC, plumbing, electrical, roofing.
• Manufacturing, warehousing and logistics.
• Field services, healthcare and food production.
• Growing companies with 10 to 500 employees.

Have employees in other states too? That's fine. Many PEOs cover multi-state teams, and the comparison accounts for it.

How it works

1. Share the basics through the free renewal check.
2. Your numbers go to several PEOs.
3. You get a plain-English comparison and decide: switch, renegotiate or stay.
