	FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: Contact: James R. Ziegler, PhD President and CEO, Solo W-2, Inc.

Introduces Suite of Branded Services Under Solo W-2, Inc. Concord, CA, August 04, 2007 – P.A.C.E., Professional Association for Contract Employment, a provider of premium services for the contingent workforce, based in Concord, CA, announced today that it has changed its corporate identity to Solo W-2, Inc. from Jerzy, Inc., the name it has used since it was founded on this date ten years ago. In keeping with its new corporate identity, the company has re-branded its separate services under the names Solo W-2™, Solo 1099™, Solo IC Compliance™ and Solo Back Office™. Founder, James R. Ziegler, PhD, explains, “Nothing really has changed. Solo W‑2, Inc. has the same ownership, the same business model, the same staff and the same services it had as Jerzy, Inc. We believe that the new corporate identity and suite of branded services more clearly conveys the company’s mission to provide an interconnected mix of premium services for (1) the solo workforce – which includes self-employed persons, small-business owners, freelancers and consultants – and (2) for those organizations that engage solo workers.” Branded Services offered by Solo W-2, Inc. are: Solo W-2™ Employer-of-record service for self-employed persons, small business owners, freelancers and consultants, offering tax-advantaged corporate employment, guarantee-issue group insurance, an incredibly generous Roth 401(k) plan, simplified tax reporting, and IRS Form W-2 at the end of the year. Solo 1099™ Agent-of-record service for fully compliant independent contractors who have all the qualifications of a legitimate business. Solo IC Compliance™ Co-employment risk mitigation, employee training, contingent workforce compliance testing and contractor payment processing for organizations that engage consultants. Solo Back Office™ Outsourced back-office support and employee benefits for progressive staffing firms, small businesses and start-ups. Dr. Ziegler explains, “The four branded services work in concert to support solo professionals and also protect the organizations that employ them.” For example, he points out that Solo IC Compliance™ uses education and contingent workforce compliance testing to mitigate the risks of co-employment and provide the strongest possible affirmative defense against the reclassification of independent contractors as employees of the organizations that engage their consulting services. “Major corporations across the country refer their independent professionals to Solo W-2, Inc. for compliance testing and payroll processing,” he notes. Solo W-2, Inc. confers Certified IC™ Independent Contractor status on independent contractors who qualify as legitimate businesses according to industry practice and common law standards. Solo W-2, Inc. establishes a dynamic compliance file for each Certified IC™ Independent Contractor and processes their payments through the Solo 1099™ agent-of-record service. Solo W-2, Inc. converts non-compliant independent contractors – and others who want to participate in the Solo W-2™ benefits infrastructure – to Warranted W-2™ employee status through the Solo W-2™ employer-of-record service. Dr. Ziegler explains, “By providing solo professionals with a corporate infrastructure to process their taxable gross revenues, we can give them the same tax-advantaged corporate employment, guarantee issue group insurance, highly leveraged Roth 401(k) retirement savings plan, simplified tax reporting and IRS Form W-2 that employees of large traditional corporations receive. And, yet, solo professionals who process their taxable revenues through Solo W-2™ retain all the freedom, independence, flexibility and tax advantaged write-offs that self-employed individuals enjoy.” To qualify for Solo W-2™, solo professionals must generate consistent monthly revenues of at least $5,000. What makes Solo W-2™ so remarkable is its unique business model, which sets up each solo professional as the manager of his or her own one-person division within Solo W-2, Inc. The one-person division simulates the operation of a one-person business that runs entirely on the revenues generated by the solo professional. The name Solo W-2™ refers to the way that Solo W-2™ converts the individual’s “Solo” gross revenues into “W-2” net wages. Dr. Ziegler makes a point to explain that Solo W-2™ employs generally accepted accounting principles and first-tier service providers to process payroll and administer its great employee benefits package. Dr. Ziegler states enthusiastically, “I believe that Solo W-2™ is the employment model for a future when all work will be project-based and all workers will be independent professionals.” He adds, “Our goal is to provide premium back-office support and great employee benefits to every qualified solo professional in the United States.” About Solo W-2, Inc. Solo W-2, Inc. offers superb contract administration, payroll processing and employee benefits for independent professionals. Solo W-2, Inc. offers outstanding back-office support for small businesses, start-ups and progressive staffing firms. Solo W-2, Inc. also provides comprehensive independent contractor compliance testing, co-employment risk mitigation and contractor payment services for organizations that engage outside consultants.
