Payroll Services
We run payroll, handle the tax deposits, file the reports, and send W-2s at year end. You just approve the hours.
How It Works
You send us the hours. We calculate pay, run withholdings, process direct deposits, and make sure the taxes get where they need to go. Every pay period, same process. You approve before anything runs, but that’s the extent of your involvement.
The quarterly reports, the tax deposits, the year-end W-2s, all of that happens without you needing to track deadlines or remember what form goes where. Payroll just runs.
Each Pay Period
Each Pay Period
Gross pay calculated, overtime figured, deductions withheld, direct deposits sent. You get a summary showing exactly what went out and where.
Taxes and Filings
Taxes and Filings
Federal deposits, Ohio withholding, unemployment reports, BWC reporting. Filed on schedule, every time. You don’t have to track the calendar.
Why It Matters
Payroll mistakes cost money and trust. Underpay an employee and you have an awkward conversation. Miss a tax deposit and you have a penalty notice. Get the Ohio withholding wrong and you’re sorting it out with the Department of Taxation months later.
The rules aren’t complicated, but they’re unforgiving. Deadlines are fixed. Penalties are automatic. The IRS and the state don’t care that you were busy with a job site or stuck on a delivery route.
The Time Cost
The Time Cost
Running payroll yourself takes two to four hours every pay period. That’s time spent on calculations and forms instead of on the work that actually pays the bills.
The Risk
The Risk
Payroll taxes aren’t like other business debts. They’re trust fund taxes. The government considers that money theirs the moment you withhold it. Late deposits can follow you personally.
What You Get
Employees paid correctly and on time. Tax deposits made before the deadline. Quarterly reports filed without you thinking about them. W-2s ready in January. The entire payroll function handled by someone who has been doing this work for 25 years.
When something changes, whether it’s a new hire, a raise, or an employee who needs a garnishment set up, you tell us and we handle it. No logging into software, no figuring out which box to check.
Consistency
Consistency
Same process every pay period. No scrambling because you forgot the deadline or couldn’t remember how to run overtime. The system works whether you’re paying attention or not.
Compliance
Compliance
Ohio BWC, state unemployment, federal withholding, all of it tracked and filed correctly. When rates change, we update them. You stay compliant without staying current on the regulations yourself.
