HOW WE HELP
Press the gas.
We'll handle the rest.
US-based experts running your payroll, HR, and benefits so you can grow your business.
RPM Payroll gives growing businesses the momentum they need with a dedicated expert who knows your business, an all-in-one platform that connects everything, and a team that catches issues before they become problems.
Here's what we hear from business owners...
"I can never reach a real expert."
Bounded between reps at a call center. When something's wrong with payroll, you need a human, not a ticket number.
"Compliance keeps me up at night."
Tax notices in the mail. New state laws. Changing thresholds at 50 and 100 employees. One missed deadline can cost thousands.
"I'm juggling too many vendors."
Payroll, benefits, workers comp, and HR all through different providers. You're the one stitching it all together.

What Our Customers Say
"Tax season used to mean a week of me digging through spreadsheets. Now my RPM contact files our quarterlies and handles the W-2s and 1099s at year end. When a wage garnishment came in for one of our employees, they set it up correctly the same day. Payroll and taxes are the part of this business I think about least now and I'm so grateful for that."
Transportation Service Business Owner
"RPM's HR side built us a real employee handbook and walked my managers through the new-hire reporting rules so we weren't guessing. When a tricky termination came up, I had someone who actually knew how to navigate that. Getting HR right isn't optional, and now I'm not carrying it alone."
Commercial Sign Installer
"We were losing job candidates to bigger companies that offered benefits and a retirement plan. RPM helped us put a 401(k) with a match and group health in place, all connected to the same payroll system, so the deductions just work. Our workers comp runs through them too, which makes the year-end audit straightforward instead of a scramble. Being able to offer real benefits has helped us keep good people."

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Is my business too small for RPM Payroll?
No. We work with businesses from 1 employee to 150+. In fact, smaller businesses often benefit the most from our hands-on service — because you get the same dedicated expert that mid-sized companies do, without paying enterprise pricing.
-
Do I have to use all three service categories?
Not at all. Most clients start with payroll and add HR, benefits, or workers comp as they grow. Everything integrates, so adding a service later is simple — and you'll always work with the same RPM expert.
-
Can RPM handle payroll if I have employees in multiple states?
Yes. We process payroll across all 50 states, including multi-state tax filing, new hire reporting, and compliance with state-specific labor laws.
-
What does onboarding look like?
We collect your paperwork, set up your employees, load year-to-date balances, and walk you through the system. Most clients are running their first payroll with RPM within 1-2 weeks — and we handle the heavy lifting.
-
Is regional payroll service really better than a national provider?
For most small and mid-sized businesses, yes. As an RPM Payroll client, you get the technology of a national provider (we run on ADP) with premium customer service from a team that picks up the phone and knows your business.
