Episode 1192 – The Payroll Mistakes Cleaning Business Owners Can’t Afford to Make – Part 1 with Mike & ADP’s Payroll Pro
Meet Megan: The Payroll Guru Every Cleaning Business Needs
In part one of this two episode, Mike Campion brings on the incredibly reliable Megan Amaru from ADP, the payroll company Mike swears by. He jokes that he’s known Megan so long, she’s gone from being single to happily married, and her reputation has only grown more impressive over the years. Mike makes it clear that ADP itself is solid, but Megan? She’s the real deal—someone who’s dependable, super knowledgeable, and makes sure her clients don’t get buried under payroll stress. She’s more than a vendor; she’s a partner who makes a complex process simple.
Why Payroll Mistakes Can Cost You Big
Mike doesn’t mince words: messing up payroll can cost your business big-time. Sure, you might feel tempted to use a local accountant or handle payroll yourself to save a buck. But if that accountant goes MIA or makes a mistake, the IRS won’t be sympathetic—they’ll come straight to you for the fees, penalties, and fines. With Megan and ADP, there’s peace of mind. ADP is a large company with the resources to make things right if they mess up, unlike smaller outfits that might leave you high and dry.
Fear of Hiring? Let Payroll Experts Handle the Details
One big reason small business owners hesitate to hire is the fear of payroll issues. Mike gets it; payroll laws are intimidating. That’s why he loves recommending Megan—her job is to handle all that paperwork and compliance so owners can focus on running their businesses. From taxes to withholdings, she takes on the headache so you don’t have to. And for those worried about costs, Mike points out that while payroll services aren’t free, they’re also not as costly as people think. For a few hundred bucks a month, you can dodge thousands of dollars in potential fines.
Pay Twice a Month – It Just Makes Sense
Mike has a strong opinion on payroll frequency: stick with paying twice a month. Weekly paychecks bring unnecessary chaos, and even every-other-week payments can lead to extra payrolls in some months, complicating the books. Paying twice a month gives you a predictable payroll schedule and saves time and money. Mike loves Megan because she’s flexible with these requests—while other companies might push back on semi-monthly schedules, she makes it happen.
Trust Megan for Smart, Money-Saving Payroll Tips
With Megan, it’s about trust and reliability. She’s out to help business owners save money and simplify payroll—not to squeeze every last dollar out of them. Mike wraps up by saying that if you’re in the cleaning business and want to avoid payroll headaches, give Megan a call. She’s the kind of partner who’s in it for the long haul, making sure her clients succeed without payroll issues dragging them down. Stay tuned for part two!
