How ADP helped
- RUN Powered by ADP removed the worry about payroll and taxes being done correctly and the salary benchmarking tool helps set them apart from others in their industry
I heard horror stories about other payroll providers
Before I opened my agency, I heard other State Farm agents telling horror stories about going with payroll providers other than ADP. They always got jammed up with taxes, or with employees not being able to access their own data or paychecks not being delivered on time. Plus, my accountant had a great relationship with ADP, and she said it was easy to set up, easy to deal with and that it was a one-stop shop for everything we needed — which it really is. So, to me, using ADP just made sense.
