Why Partner With Us
People Growers of America has been hosting on-site educational events since 1985. With 5000 events under our belts, we have handled every situation and challenge imaginable. There is no substitute for experience and longevity! Companies such as Boeing, Daimler, CenturyLink, and Allergan have entrusted hundreds of events to People Growers over the years. Our references are impressive, and our performance flawless.
We create every event with an eye towards YOUR AGENDA. We believe wellness events are far more than “random acts of health”, but should support your ongoing health and safety initiatives. Our events are not “health-related swap meets” where vendors who paid to be there are pushing their wares. Our events are responsible, educational, interactive support systems, built exactly to your specifications.
Because you, and your broker if you have one, will have full control of exhibitor choice, you will never be put in the embarrassing position of explaining why a particular exhibitor is at your event, doing or selling something inappropriate for your employee group or theme. Our exhibitors are not allowed to contact your employees without their permission, or aggressively solicit. Many of the exhibitors in our events can represent YOUR ONGOING WELLNESS AND SAFETY PROGRAM, tying everything together in a cohesive experience.
We charge reasonable fees for our services, because our events are not primarily funded by booth sales. Many of the exhibits will represent YOUR WELLNESS PROGRAM. You retain ownership and control. Ownership and Control may cost you a little more, but in the long run, it’s a wise investment! The question is: Is this an event that’s integral to your initiatives, or is it a “cookie cutter’ event out of your control? If a group offers to organize your event at no cost, their agenda may not match yours. People Growers has only one goal: to support your Wellness and Safety initiatives fully.
Our network of providers and alliances offer on-line wellness platforms, full biometrics and screenings, incentive programs, and safety trainings at the best possible rates. Allow us to bring the best resources to you!
Now that “WELLNESS’ is the word of the day, and virtually every company is installing a wellness program of some sort, hosting a health fair seems a logical part of that process. So brokers, HR Directors, Benefits Directors, and even company health nurses start “asking around” or going online to find companies who can host these events.
Before you innocently start contacting local providers of this service, I’m going to give you the inside scoop on how all these companies work, how they make their profit, and what their motivations are.
I know these things because I actually launched one of the first health fair companies in America in 1985. All of the local companies, with one exception, are the spawns of People Growers, breaking off after “learning the ropes” to create a competitive product that has mutated into the opposite of what I envisioned when I opened the doors of People Growers of America in San Diego, California.
The original business plan for People Growers divided the costs of a health fair equally between the host company and the exhibitors. In this model, PGA could play a certain “Robin Hood” role, giving away booth space to pivotal local resources, such as the fire department, police department, city services, and non-profit groups. We sell space to those that can afford it; medical specialists, local for-profit services, and groups offering excellent wellness products. We know that to make this formula work and give our host companies complete control over the vendors at their events, the minimum we can charge for an event is about $1500-$2500.
BUT our competitors decided to charge the host company little or nothing, or require them to sign long term contracts to ensure lower fees, which force the health fair company to sell literally every booth space to pretty much any product or service that would pay to make the profit they need. The “health fair” has turned into a glorified swap meet, with as many as five chiropractors, three dental groups (easy booth sales) and a bunch of multi-levels aggressively trying to collect employee info for “follow-up”, (which translates into employees being bothered at home at work.)
People Growers is an important adjunct to your current wellness and safety program. We create custom designed, interactive, educational events for the purpose of supporting YOUR wellness initiatives, and lowering your health care costs over time. We want to make a quantitative difference in the quality of life of your workforce. We are not at all interested in selling make-up or $2000 water filters of questionable value.
Before you contract out for an event, carefully consider why you are hosting the event at all. If it’s “just for fun”, go cheap. If it’s to get real work done, then partner with a company who satisfies the sophisticated and comprehensive wellness and safety objectives of serious corporations, such as Boeing, Daimler Trucks, Hyster-Yale, Seattle Mariners, Oxy Oil, and Toyota, who trust and respect People Growers. Be willing to invest a little more for the control, quality and peace of mind upon which we have built an impeccable reputation since 1984. We will listen to YOUR visions and goals for your wellness and safety initiatives, work closely with your broker and your insurance companies, and get the job done, bottom line.
