The average Spherion office generated more than $5.6 million in revenue and $1.2 million in gross margin in 2024.* Spherion owners benefit from the stability of protected, exclusive territories.

Spherion franchise owners enjoy a wide variety of responsibilities and daily activities. Our local office franchisees are typically the sales and client relationship drivers. They spend much of their time out of the office seeing prospects, visiting clients, touring customer worksites, and networking within the business community. They oversee their staff whose primary role is to recruit, screen, interview and match suitable candidates with employer clients. As small business owners, franchisees manage their financial information while projecting growth and resolving issues.

The Boise Metro — often called the Treasure Valley — is one of the fastest-growing economic regions in the country. The metro consistently ranks among the top 10 metros nationwide for net migration, fueling strong, sustained demand for workers across nearly every sector.

Idaho's labor market has consistently ranked among the nation's leaders in job growth, and the Boise Metro sits at the heart of that momentum. The region offers staffing professionals access to a growing workforce, a business-friendly environment, and competitive operating costs compared to larger West Coast metros — making it an ideal market for a diversified staffing operation built for the long term.

Healthcare, technology, and professional services round out a stable, multi-sector economy that generates consistent demand for staffing solutions year-round.

The Boise Metro offers extensive business support through organizations like the Boise Valley Economic Partnership, the Boise Metro Chamber of Commerce, and regional economic development councils across Ada, Canyon, and the surrounding counties. The area has a strong culture of community investment, with residents and businesses alike prioritizing local partnerships and long-term relationships.

Idaho's unemployment rate has held at 3.7% — well below the national average — reflecting a healthy, stable labor market.
