TOP 10 REASONS TO OUTSOURCE

• Liability: The last thing you need to worry about is liability. A payroll service provider absorbs this risk for you. If a mistake is made due to OUR error, WE pay for it!

• Taxes: The IRS has reported that one out of every three employers has been charged for a tax-related payroll error. This equates to billions of dollars in penalties. A payroll service provider keeps you out of the statistics.

• Affordability: Have you ever thought about how much your time is worth? Consider how much time you spend managing payroll, which takes time away from revenue-producing activities. At the very least, consider the cost of computer equipment and software as well as the extensive training that is needed to run payroll internally. Outsourcing with the right payroll service provider will save you money.

• Profitability: Do you remember why you went into business in the first place? Certainly it wasn't to calculate federal and state unemployment taxes. Outsourcing your payroll gives you the freedom to get back to your business.

• Time: You have better things to do with your time than calculating payroll. Getting paychecks out on time is not only expected, but its also a positive reflection of your company.

• Accuracy: Even with the simplest of payrolls, it's easy to make mistakes. Without current and on-going training in payroll compliance, your company could face stiff penalties and unhappy employees.

• Privacy: It can be embarrassing and detrimental to morale if the wrong eyes fall on the wrong paycheck. Confidentiality is much easier to maintain when payroll is outsourced, particularly when employees use direct deposit.

• Reporting: Payroll companies offer a wide array of standard reports that are informative and easy to read. Keep your records neat and concise with these invaluable reports.

• Flexibility: As your business changes, so do your payroll needs. Don't get bogged down with the nuts and bolts of personnel changes. Leave the details to an expert while you focus on your business.

• Professionalism: What better way to show your employees that your company is professional and secure? Outsourcing your payroll will enhance your successful image.
