How many employees should you have before you use an outsourced HR company?
👋 Hi, I'm Tara and I help small businesses solve people problems.
I truly can’t thank Tara enough for the HR consulting work she did on behalf of our small business! Tara is a true professional and understands the nuances of how to navigate sensitive HR situations.
— Emily M (co-founder/co-president) was a client
Tara has the expertise and devotes the time to efficiently take care of the HR needs of a small business. As my firm was growing, Tara guided us through the hiring process and helped us put pieces in place that we knew needed, and other pieces we didn’t!
— Michael M (attorney) was a client
“Tara was able to take some of the most challenging staffing situations and employment situations and walk through them with empathy to the affected employees and never losing sight of what needed to be done for the corporation.

You started your business because you love what you do
Managing people quickly becomes a significant time investment for the average small business owner. It doesn’t have to be this way.
You're spending 20 hours a week managing "people problems" instead of growing your business.
You're capable of growing, but staffing issues are limiting your potential.
You went into business to be your own boss, not get stuck in a bureaucratic stack of regulations.
Why you might need my help
✅ Out Of Time
Your time is better spent on your business, not the minutiae of managing HR challenges.
✅ Out of your depth
You’re not sure what the answers are or where to start with managing people problems.
✅ Spinning Your Wheels
The things that worked when you were a smaller business are no longer producing results.

I had the opportunity to get to know Tara McCafferty while serving on a non- profit board during a challenging time for the organization. Tara’s leadership, advice and strategies provided a roadmap to address many issues. Tara is a good listener too, which is priceless when you are addressing challenging situations and people. I highly recommend Tara.
— Ricia B (consultant, not-for-profit) was a client.
Tara McCafferty came highly recommended by a follow board member of a fast-growing nonprofit organization with a small staff.
I was impressed with how Tara accurately assessed the agency’s challenges. It had to be her years of experience that allowed her to guide the organization through a very difficult time. She provided us with solid HR advice, policies, separation strategies, and new job descriptions.
Thanks to Tara’s focused HR solutions, we were able to transition successfully into our current growth phase.
In short, Tara approached our situation in a professional and direct manner while treating our entire staff with dignity and respect.
— Bonnie B (non-profit board chair) was a client.
I met Tara through a networking association. We are a small business without a dedicated HR manager on staff, so when we had a personnel incident that needed immediate expert attention and guidance, we called Tara. She was quick to respond with onsite advice and stayed by our side until we had a resolution. Since then, Tara has provided group training and audited our HR procedures. We will definitely be using Tara again as an HR advisor or fractional HR manager.
