Keeping Payroll In-House

Seems like many payroll companies try to persuade you to outsource your payroll, and not do it in-house.

What does outsourcing payroll mean exactly?

In the not so distant past, it meant having a payroll provider do all the manual work for you. Payroll used to be handled by a staff, so having the work done outside your business made a lot of sense.

But those days are gone, at least for those of us who have kept up.

Payroll is now almost completely automated.

Same thing with bookkeeping, if you use QuickBooks, does that mean you are outsourcing? No, not at all, unless you hire a freelance bookkeeper or firm to maintain it for you.

Here are a few reasons you should keep payroll in-house:

  • Greater control
  • Time saving
  • Increased transparency
  • Improved efficiency
  • Lower costs
  • Reduced errors
  • Greater accruacy

All you need is modern software (like ours) using a web browser.
