Introducing Monthly HR Advising Services by 4C Advising
Doing human resources (HR) solo can be a lonely experience, even though HR is at the heart of organizational culture and employee well-being. While trying to support everyone else, you may be overwhelmed by compliance requirements, struggling to retain employees and boost engagement, and worried about making costly HR mistakes.
If this is you, we hear and understand you because we’ve been in your shoes. Early in our business, we didn’t have the resources to hire a C-suite or expensive consultants, but we knew we needed deeper expertise in HR to strengthen and grow our business.
After working with over 20,000 clients and witnessing many of them reach the same crossroads, we knew there had to be a better way for small businesses to access affordable and high-impact HR services and support. That’s why we have launched HR Advisory Services by 4C Advising.
Here’s why an HR advisor may be the exact solution you’re looking for.
HR director or HR advisor?
The average cost for an HR Director in California in 2025 is about $200,000. An HR director is an essential role businesses should aspire to fill. But if your business isn’t in the ballpark yet, it doesn’t mean you should wait to take HR seriously.
Starting at just $250/month, our HR Advisory Services allow small businesses to take action. Plans are tailored to the needs of small businesses and include monthly advisory support with us – real people!
What are the risks of putting off HR tasks?
We are determined to make high-impact HR services affordable for your small business. Here’s why you shouldn’t put HR off:
Legal risks and lawsuits: Laws and regulations constantly change, and keeping up is hard! It is important to stay up-to-date to remain compliant and reduce your risk of employee-related lawsuits. Some examples include changes to wages and classifications, data privacy, and FMLA.
Morale: Forbes reports that productivity can increase by as much as 20% for happy employees compared to unhappy employees. Oftentimes, productivity leads to greater profit because more output is produced with fewer resources. Plus, who doesn’t want to work among happy coworkers?
Operational Inefficiencies: Are you consistently onboarding, offboarding, and performing evaluations? Or are you winging it as you go? Operational inefficiencies can drain time and money and create a poor employee experience.
Conflict & Image: When HR policies are not valued or enforced, it can lead to conflict between coworkers, employees, and the employer, which may also prompt employees to talk poorly about your company.
You Staying Stuck: Did you know that demonstrating confident leadership can lead to 15-20% higher employee satisfaction and retention rates, according to Gallup? Working with an HR advisor can boost your confidence so you can be more effective in your role. Don’t stay stuck at a crossroad – work with an advisor to transform your role.
For these reasons and more, it is increasingly important to prioritize consistent HR policies and practices. You are building your team and business for a reason, and neglecting HR jeopardizes your business’s potential.
Who are HR advisory services for?
We encourage you to hire an HR Director and/or support staff if possible. However, small businesses often need to get creative to obtain the support they need.
If you’re a small business with more than one employee or an entrepreneur newly navigating the hiring process, an HR Advisor is an excellent resource for you.
If you are an HR Director or HR Manager who needs additional support, such as monthly newsletters that can be written and sent to your team, or a monthly hour of advising, an HR Advisor is an excellent resource for you.
