The Metiss Group always grew steadily when it was only based in Metro Detroit. But the staffing consulting firm saw its growth go national after it opened an office in North Carolina seven years ago.
Today the firm services a broad range of clients across the U.S., ranging from property managers to architecture firms. The 17-year-old consulting firm helps other businesses make smart hires that fit their needs and cultures.
"You name the industry and I believe we have worked in it," says Cyndi Gave, president of
The Metiss Group.
That has allowed the Sterling Heights-based firm to consistently notch double-digit gains over the last five years. It spiked its revenue 29 percent in 2013 off of organic growth. About 30 percent of that revenue expansion came from new businesses.
The growth has allowed The Metiss Group to add to its staff. The firm currently employs six people after hiring an office manager and a content delivery person over the last year. It is also looking to hire a business development executive.
"We're really searching to find the right person," Gave says. She adds that her firm expects to have a staff of nine people by the end of the year.
