In this episode, Easier Than You Think; Payroll with expert Dana Canaday, we unmask the process of setting up and managing payroll for your employees. Many business owners are intimidated by the prospect, but we're here to talk about how it's simpler than it appears. With a multitude of payroll services available, the heavy lifting can be outsourced, or if you prefer, manageable DIY options exist. The initial setup is the hardest part and it can transitions to an almost hands-off system thereafter. Payroll companies can handle tax payments directly, leaving you to simply input employee wages. We will touch on the important distinction between W-2 and 1099, ensuring your staff are paid correctly and legally. Tune in to make payroll the least of your worries.
