I have been using QB do it yourself payroll. Somewhere between 150 and 200 a year for all of the neccesary software and updates for new taxes. I would manually add the rate for items such as state unemployment. I have no problem doing payroll myself, except that once the quarter ends I have to relearn which forms go where, when each tax is due, yadda, yadda, yadda.
The company I hired tells me that I don't have to pay the weekly charges to process payroll if I don't have one (winter). They will file a zero return for me in the winter as well, for a nominal fee.
As my company 'evolves' I am seeking ways to make my life easier. I'm hoping I found one.
I love the idea of an office assistant. However, I can't justify hiring someone to do the job for me...yet.
Imagine a live voice to return calls, call a couple weeks after completeing a job to see if there are any questions, call a day or two before a job starts to say we're coming, call a week or two after presenting an estimate to see if there are any questions. Call suppliers to check and double check orders. Pay the monthly bills. Those little things make a BIG difference.
