I have a lot of employees counting on us to be successful. I know the areas of our business that are managed well, and I know those areas that put us at risk. Your people helped us put programs in place to control those risks.

We had some real problems tracking job and departmental costs at our subdivisions. Our previous payroll company said they couldn't help. Your IT staff customized our payroll entry on the web; we save almost a full day each week; plus we have better data.

Every single benefits question I've had to ask her about, she's gotten me an answer within less than 24 hours! In most cases, it's been within a couple of hours.

You've been a key to our ability to grow. As we expanded geographically, you kept us in line with the rules and regulations; we probably wouldn't have done that on our own.

We used payroll companies in the past, and they could never get it right. Your people really take a personal interest in getting it right, it's such a difference.

Nobody is perfect, but I can tell your staff really wants to be. If they make a mistake, they're quick to say, 'How would you like us to handle that?' what more can you ask?

If we're trying to build a company, we have to attract the best of breed executives from our local and national companies.
—Gayle Rose, CEO, Electronic Vaulting Services, “Small Firms Beef Up Retirement Services with Outside Help” The Wall Street Journal, August 19, 2008.
The WSJ article continued: So in 2007, Ms. Rose turned to Adams Keegan Inc., a Memphis firm that handles human-resources responsibilities such as payroll and retirement benefits for other businesses. The firm set up Electronic Vaulting's plan and also offered access to online tools like calculators and up-to-date performance reports. A few months after implementing the program, the company hired two senior executives. The retirement benefits added to a comprehensive package that lured the two away from larger companies.
It creates a partnership between the two companies instead of a vendor/customer relationship. We can measure performance and keep track of the hours worked.

Since 1987, Adams Keegan has provided an ever-growing array of options, allowing business owners to focus on core functions, rather than legalities and employee-related paperwork. –“Taking Care of Business”
We tried using separate vendors for our HR needs, but having one company take care of it all is a lot more feasible. Using Adams Keegan allows a small firm to offer an HR counterpart to the services we provide.
