Our goal is to teach and help one employee, one citizen, and one student at a time build a better financial future. This would include building 'Paths to Homeownership and Self-Sufficiency'. We provide basic fundamental financial literacy knowledge of many concepts of the complex worlds of money, credit, and finance. Give your employees the 'Gift' of increased financial literacy and the 'Keys' to Financial Freedom.
The NFEC conducted a survey that concluded financial illiteracy costs 254 million American adults over $436 billion annually. We must find a way to put this money back into their pockets to ensure their financial success and grow the economy. Statistics state that 69% of Americans are living paycheck to paycheck, more than likely because they have a lack of or inadequate financial literacy knowledge. In these challenging times inflation, high credit card debt, and shrink-flation people are really struggling financially. American credit card debt has reached over $1.13 trillion and $120 billion in interest and fee payments. This creates enormous amounts of financial stress in their lives and causes many health concerns. Did you know only 57% of Americans have basic financial literacy and over 60% are living paycheck to paycheck? The 'STFF HOPE PROCESS' can help reduce employee turnover and increase employee retention. In essence, it increases your company’s profitability by reducing hiring, training, signing, and retention bonuses, lowering your operations' expenses.
Employee turnover and retention currently cost all companies over $1 trillion annually in additional operational expenses. How can you drastically reduce this expense and add it back into your profits? How do you stand out and make your company more attractive to these employees? Your business is like many national big box stores; home improvement, drug chains, retailers, dollar, supermarket chains, convenience stores, and fast-food restaurants all are competing for the same pool of $10 to $20 hourly full-time and part-time employees. Even the membership warehouses, service industry, and union employees are seeking ways and asking for more wages to increase their incomes. It seems like they are willing to go on strike for a few dollars more per hour with no real limit as to how much more they 'want'. These labor interruptions can be very costly to your business's bottom line. So, what can you do to avoid the strikes and satisfy your employees' need for higher wages? Is there a happy medium for both of you?
Whether your employee turnover rate is 20% to 75% and your hiring costs are $1,500 to $3,000 or more for each new hire it negatively affects your operations budget and bottom-line profits. What is your company's employee turnover rate? What are your average hiring and training costs per new hire employee? What is their average length of employment with your company? What are you doing to increase employee retention? How much money would your company save annually if you could reduce employee turnover by 10% to 40% per year?
This type of investment shows your employees that company loyalty goes both ways and that you really care about their long-term success in life and your work-life balance. If they are your most important asset, how do make them feel like they are part of the team?

Once this Solution is implemented it provides them with immediate measurable feedback to stay with the company because they are making better financial decisions. You must evaluate the benefits of investing in the ‘STFF HOPE PROCESS’ as an option for providing your employees a better work-life balance for sustainable long-term financial security versus just another annual pay increase of $0.50 plus per hour.
