Online Payroll Services for Small Business Owners Simplifies Payroll Processing

For small business owners in salon, spa, fitness, and wellness, setting up payroll can be a time-consuming source of confusion. Finding the right payroll provider and payroll solution can help your business save time and money. By automating time card calculations, sales, tax forms, local taxes, and calculating commission, Gusto and Vagaro make payday more streamlined. Small business owners in beauty, fitness, and wellness have traditionally had limited options when it comes to payroll processing software, because in service-based industries, pay types don’t always follow traditional structures.

Choosing the Right Payroll Provider Makes Payroll and Tax Compliance Easier

There’s no getting around it: Payroll and payroll tax compliance is tricky. Here are some of the hurdles small business owners face every pay period:

How your payroll is managed and structured must be compliant with your local, state or province, and country’s labor laws.
Accurate payroll set-up and compliance with required federal, state, and local tax forms and requirements.
US-based businesses must stay up-to-date on updates to IRS policies to ensure compliance.
Employees and independent contractors (booth renters) have different payroll requirements, so it’s critical to stay abreast of IRS policy changes processing payroll for booth renters alongside payroll for hourly or commission-based employees.
Offering health insurance, unemployment, workers’ compensation, or retirement benefits to employees comes with additional regulations and compliance requirements.

For many small business owners, payday might be a combination of several different pay structures, which can make every payday time-consuming, expensive, and subject to human error. Keep in mind, hairdressers, massage therapists, personal trainers, barbers, and fitness professionals are often paid as independent contractors, so making sure your payroll software is set up correctly for each employee’s payroll configuration is a business necessity. Gusto makes it easy to set up even the most involved pay structures with the correct tax and benefits withholdings. That means that every time you run payroll, you can be sure it’s accurate.
