Let’s face it, handling the “business” end of small business . . . well . . . stinks.
And, if you’re like me, payroll–along with taxes–is one of the worst “offenders.”
The numbers tell the whole story:
- When it comes to running payroll, making a mistake can be super costly. In fact, the U.S. Chamber of Commerce indicates that one out of three businesses will pay a payroll tax penalty each year (that’s each year, not once).
- The IRS reports that 40 percent of all small businesses pay an average of $845 per year for late or incorrect payroll report filings. Ye-ouch!
So I just heard about this online payroll service that Intuit is offering, and I wasn’t convinced. Don’t get me wrong; the folks at Intuit are a smart group of people–hence the company name–but I didn’t think they’d be able to put a dent in the painful process that masquerades as payroll.
That is, until I looked at Intuit’s online video. Guess I was wrong. (Hey, I can admit it!) So now I’m sharing it with you.
Note: Close the little pop-up window and click the big blue “See How It Works” button (they should re-label that button “Video Guide” or something). Warning . . . there might be another annoying pop-up later. You’d think the Intuit folks would know pop-ups ruin the experience, especially when watching online video. But hey, they can’t be experts in everything, right?
