A MESSAGE FROM LISTO

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 Lehi Loop subscribers to help you get started and realize the benefits of adding global team members to your organization.
