In the bustling world of student travel, where every detail matters, running a successful business demands focus and dedication. For Robin Maxwell, owner of Grand Classroom, a student travel agency in Charlottesville, Virginia, the key to maintaining her business's success for 22 years lies not just in providing exceptional student travel experiences but also in choosing the right partners to handle critical aspects of the business, like payroll.

The thrilling journey of launching a new business involves navigating a maze of challenges and demands for one’s time. For Peter Tremaglio, founder of Festive Rentals in Charlottesville, Virginia, this meant navigating challenges like selecting the ideal showroom and warehouse location, obtaining permits and licenses, and making crucial decisions about hiring his first employees.

In the landscape of business, growth brings about exciting opportunities, but it also introduces new challenges, especially in managing personnel and finances. This rings true for Megan Miriello, the Director of Operations and Finance at TDC Marketing. Initially, when their business consisted of just her, her husband, and a few employees, payroll tasks were manageable in-house but as the team expanded, so did the complexity of their payroll and HR needs.
