Payroll Fit Kit: Daily Exercises for National Payroll Week

Take deep breaths, shake it out, flex your muscles. It’s time to test the health of payroll and HR strategies — internally for your firm and externally on behalf of your clients.

National Payroll Week, Sept. 5–9, is an annual weeklong event that overlaps with Labor Day. Its purpose: “to celebrate the unique partnership among America’s workers, their companies, the payroll professionals who pay them and critical government programs …,” according to the American Payroll Association.

Of course, for us at the CPA.com and Paychex Partner Program, every week is payroll week. We live and breathe payroll, retirement and HR advice every day. It’s OK if you don’t, and perhaps it’s been a while since you took the time to evaluate overall strategies.

We’ve created a simple program, so you can get back into the swing of things during National Payroll Week.

(And if now is not a good time, no worries. Find the time that works best for you. The important thing is that you get started.)

Here are some exercises for you to complete every day this week, on the road to stronger payroll and HR management and advisory services.

Day 1:

Warm up with your choice of whitepapers on payroll outsourcing or common HR issues.

Day 2:

Set your goals and get inspired with case studies of firms that are seeing fantastic results.

Day 3:

Challenge yourself by reaching out to a client with our sales tools, including the new Client HR Compliance Analysis.

Day 4:

Rest and recover with a video summary of the Paychex Partner Program, and consider what questions you have.

Day 5:

Refine your goals by reaching out to a Paychex representative, who will help you evaluate options and build a custom program.

That’s it! You can do it. We can’t wait to see your results.

If you have any questions in the meantime, call us at 877.264.2615. And happy National Payroll Week!
