Journey from Office to Home Spurs MSI's Success
The Best Financial Performer for the 2007 StartupNation Home-Based 100 isn’t exactly a small business, unless you consider a 10,000-person network of workers small.
But Medical Solutions International, originally founded in 1987, is indeed a home-based enterprise, proving that you don’t have to think small when planning a business out of your home. The company, a staffing service that places nursing professionals in hospitals around North America, England, and Ireland, has its headquarters out of CEO Robert Woltz’s Tempe, Ariz., home. Woltz has five full-time staffers that also are home-based, in locations sprinkled around the United States.
MSI has established relationships with many hospitals over the years, and provides nurses to medical facilities around the country on a 13-week contract basis. Since the health-care industry currently has such a high demand for qualified workers, MSI is able to place nurses in preferred geographic locations, which the nurses love. For example, if Miami during the winter sounds appealing, the company tries to find hospitals there looking for nursing help. Napa Valley in the springtime? No problem, MSI will go to bat for you.
“They’re demanding,” Woltz says of the nurses. “But we accommodate their needs.”
MSI also has 11 outsourced, contract employees around the country, from former executives to stay-at-home moms, who work on commission and serve as recruiters for potential nursing candidates.
