  • Alright, so who has the best payroll service for small businesses? ADP, Gusto, or QuickBooks?
    As a licensed CPA, I have direct experience with using each of these payroll providers for my clients, and for my own companies that I run.
    I’ve been on the backend of some serious payroll issues that can be extremely frustrating and costly if you do not know what you’re doing.
    I’ve dealt with thousands of dollars in payroll penalties and fines due to glitches, mistakes, errors, bad customer service, and so on.
    And a lot of this can be avoided by simply choosing the best payroll service for your business.
    Each payroll provider has pros and cons - some have more features than others, some have better customer service, and some are… more expensive than others.
    The best payroll service for your business will depend on your unique needs and by the end of this video you should have a pretty good idea of which is best for your business.

      I own a commercial cleaning business, too, with only a handful of employees. I'd love to know what you decided to use as a 3rd party payroll service and how it's going. I'm just now looking to pay part-time help and converting from sole-prop to s-corp status.

    I love the way you explain all the different concepts. It’s fascinating. Thank you again for a great video.❤ your videos, and some others that I’ve been viewing on UA-cam have motivated me to the point of wanting to stop being a sole proprietor, and actually consider hiring two or three employees, particularly for the tax write off benefits.

    I am leaving one of the services mentioned for another simply because customer service was terrible. I could be on the phone literally for hours, being transferred from one "specialist" to another to another to another. Could not call and talk to the person that actually helped you for another question. Also was told different answers for the same question from one day to the next. One payroll our health insurance premiums would disappear, the next only a handful of employees were going to be paid, not everyone.

    I was leaning toward paying close to $500 a month to an accounting firm to handle my payroll. I am converting from a sole-proprietorship to an S-corp and will only have about six part time employees, including myself and my husband. I'm actually thinking I can do this on my own and for a fraction of the cost. Thanks so much for this and the last video re: paying employees through a 3rd party service like QB or ADP.

    Hello Sherman This was a great video with lots of helpful information. I have a question. I know someone who will be looking to get an apartment, so the apartment management is looking for proof of income, I guess in the form of pay checks or pay stubs. This person is simply a Gigworker who does Doordash and another Platform. She would prefer a payroll service that is inexpensive and as simple as possible to prove her income. But she also wants reliability as well. What can you suggest in regards to what you would choose when it comes to income verification with a payroll service? Thanks for your help.

    • @mycpacoach
      @mycpacoach  10 місяців тому +3

      Thank you! If she earns 1099 income, she is effectively a business owner. Therefore, proof of income would normally require showing bank statements (business accounts) and/or financial statements (income statement). If she has no employees and is not a corporation, she likely does not need a payroll service for proof of income.

    Thank you for the comparison. I currently use QB payroll and I'm looking to change. I saw that customer offers multistage, does ADP? Also, does either one allow you to approve payroll taxes being paid instead of automatically paying them? QB automatically pays them, where I would like it to be approved first.
