Thrive HR provides fractional HR services for small businesses, offering practical support with HR compliance, employee relations, onboarding, and leadership development—without the cost of a full-time HR hire.

You’re not alone. And you don’t have to carry this by yourself.

HOW LEADERS MOVE FROM OVERWHELMED TO CONFIDENT

1. Get protected and clear
Handbooks, labor law posters, and compliance essentials.

2. Build confident leaders
Tools and practice that help managers handle people issues independently.

3. Support the human behind the role
Because strong leadership isn’t sustainable without support.

This is HR — evolved.

THIS IS FOR YOU IF YOU ARE:

  1. A small business owner or founder (10–200 employees)

  2. A healthcare, wellness, salon, or service-based leader

  • Michele was amazing to work with! She helped our accounting firm get fully set up and compliant from an HR standpoint and made the entire process simple and stress-free. She was supportive, knowledgeable, and available every step of the way. What felt overwhelming at first quickly became easy thanks to her guidance.

    - S. Godoy

  • "No pressure. No judgment. Just support — exactly what small business owners need. Wearing all the hats in my small businesses eventually becomes both time-consuming and a liability. I know I can’t do it all, so I outsource wherever it makes sense — and HR is now one of those areas. Thrive HR has an incredible arsenal of resources available, including à la carte options. If you feel like you’ve got the HR side handled, great — you can still tap into Michele’s as-needed tools and purchase exactly what you need, when you need it. And if you don’t have it all figured out? You’ll feel supported, not judged. Michele Trotter is a true HP (high performer) — knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping business owners protect their people and their businesses. Highly recommend Thrive HR for any small business owner ready to lead with intention and confidence."

    - J. Tobar

  • Quick, efficient and awesome service! Michele was great to work with!
