How to Know What Type of Service You Need
In today’s dynamic work environment, business needs aren’t always permanent—and that’s okay.
Whether you're launching a new product, facing a seasonal rush, or filling a short-term gap, knowing what type of service engagement is right for your business can save you time, money, and headaches. But the real question is:
👉 Should you hire temporary help, bring on part-time assistance, or opt for project-based expertise?
Let’s break down the differences and benefits of each approach—and show you how MPS (My Premium Service) can help you make the right match with just a few clicks.
🔍 Understanding the Options: What’s the Difference?
Hiring isn't one-size-fits-all. Depending on your timeline, budget, and goals, each type of engagement has a distinct purpose.
1. Temporary Services – For Urgent, Short-Term Needs
Temporary engagements are typically used to cover staff shortages, sudden demand spikes, or unexpected absences. These roles usually last from a few days to a few months.
According to the Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM), contingent workers like temps are becoming an essential part of workforce planning, especially for industries like retail, events, and logistics.
“The contingent workforce provides the agility businesses need in uncertain times.” – SHRM
✅ Best For: Seasonal retailers, event coordinators, medical staff backfill, customer support overflow
2. Part-Time Services – Ongoing Support, Flexible Hours
Need someone regularly but not full-time? Part-time workers offer consistent help without the cost or commitment of full-time staff. This is great for roles that are task-based or time-sensitive but not daily.
Part-time talent is ideal for businesses scaling gradually, or those needing support roles like administration, digital marketing, content creation, or customer outreach.
✅ Best For: Startups, nonprofits, solopreneurs, side-project support, social media managers
3. Project-Based Services – Defined Goals with Clear Deadlines
This model is growing fast—especially in tech, creative, and professional services. According to Forbes, project-based hiring is on the rise because it aligns cost and talent with outcomes.
“Companies are shifting from filling roles to filling outcomes.” – Forbes
Think of these professionals as experts brought in to execute a specific plan, like designing a website, implementing a CRM, or producing a campaign. Once it’s done, the engagement ends—clean and efficient.
✅ Best For: App development, rebranding projects, audits, consultations, software integrations
