Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping

Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping -- Who We Are

We believe small businesses have been greatly overlooked…treated as a number, not a name.

With that belief, Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping was founded. We have partnered with the industry-leader for payroll and human resources management, Gusto. We offer a simple, transparent pricing structure with no hidden fees or charges.  Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping also believes in giving back. We have pledged to give back 2% of our proceeds and provide ways for each company and their employees to do so, as well.

Payroll

We offer a wide variety of programs to best fit your company's needs. These programs range from companies as small as one employee, to more specific plans for larger companies.

Human Resources

SPB handles employee relations, payroll, benefits, and more. Plan, direct, and coordinate the administrative functions of an organization the easy way with us!

Bookkeeping

Keeping an accurate record of your business's finances is an imperative, though often, tedious, task for any business owner. Our Team of Bookkeeping experts is here to help!

Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping

“When you lose a client, it is rarely because your competitor’s product/service has a few extra bells and whistles. It is rarely because your competitor is a couple of dollars a month cheaper. It is rarely because of that amazing promo that the salesperson offered. In almost all instances, you lose a client because they feel neglected. Southern Payroll & Bookkeeping won’t be touched from a customer-service standpoint, and we refuse to be outworked by anyone in the industry.”
