TOGETHER WITH

Good morning, Lehi. We are thrilled to welcome you to the very first issue of Lehi Loop! As residents of Lehi, we created this project to get more involved in our wonderful city and connect with fellow neighbors. Your support as an early subscriber means the world to us.

We’d love to hear your feedback and suggestions, so please don’t hesitate to reach out…it’s as easy as replying to this email.

Our goal is to foster community spirit and support local commerce, and we’re excited to see how this newsletter can contribute to making Lehi an even better place to live.

Let’s get to it.

—Tyler, Anthony, & Chloe

A MESSAGE FROM LISTO

Listo makes it easy for you to find, hire, and pay your global team! Whether you want to hire someone as (what we call in the U.S.) a “1099 contractor” or a “W2 employee,” our platform makes it both possible and simple. With our solutions you do not need to set-up and register a foreign legal entity; we are ready to hire and pay people in 180 countries.

Listo started in Lehi (on the balcony of Harmons to be exact) two years ago this summer. Now, nearly 200 companies use Listo to pay nearly 5,000 workers across 100 countries. A few reasons companies hire overseas are to benefit from lower cost wage markets or to start selling in other countries. Our clients hire computer programmers, accountants, designers, virtual assistants, and more!

If you already have global team members, let us see if we can make your life easier, reduce your international labor risk, or save you budget on how you’ve hired your global team.

If you don’t yet have global employees but want to give it a try, we will offer 10 hours of global recruiting for free to you early Lehi Loop subscribers to help you get started and realize the benefits of adding global team members to your organization.
