Everyone needs payroll, but everyone also already has payroll. Working for a corporation there’s surprisingly few inbounds (maybe 6 in a year) but they do support with a budget to engage your territory. Success is in the long term, building relationships for referrals.

It was a great experience and set me up with an awesome foundation. The problem I ran into was people kept getting promoted or shuffled around so I had 5 different managers in 1 year. The last one I had was more of a task manager and Covid hit.
