Link Staffing Services Veteran Returns

Link Welcomes Back Former Franchisee

NASHVILLE, TN (Tuesday, March 29, 2005) - Today Link Staffing Services, a national provider of industrial staffing and productivity solutions, announced that Billy and Jeanne McKellar will be converting their current Universal Staffing Services offices to a Link Staffing Services franchise. The offices are located in Madison and Portland, TN. Mr. McKellar has over 25 years staffing industry experience. He has held a wide variety of positions from customer service representative to vice president. He first joined the Link franchise system in 1994 with franchises in Lafayette and Baton Rouge, LA. Mr. McKellar left Link in 1998 to open his own staffing company and built it to $5 million in sales. When his clients began to desire highly qualified industrial employees, Billy decided to rejoin Link by converting his offices into Link franchise offices. Mr. McKellar's return to the Link is highlighted by the value he places in the Link operating system. According to Billy, "By implementing the Link hiring and screening processes, we will definitely be able to expand our client base." Link's process is one of the best in the industry and includes a computerized pre-employment evaluation designed to screen out potential problem workers. It also includes a Functional Assessment Program that measures strength, agility, and endurance; a personal interview; and a vision and drug screen. "We are all happy to have Billy and Jeanne back with Link," said Ike Steele, President of Link. "It's like welcoming back long- lost cousins that you grew up with. Everything Billy does is successful, so I know that he will help Link grow."
