Northstar Payroll has worked with our school as it grows. They are very professional and offer personalized services. Dave, JoAnne and Heather are the best! They are best in the metro Atlanta area. We previously worked with ADP and this by far surpasses them and we're glad to have found them. If you're looking for a payroll company, use Northstar!

We've been using Dave & his team for several years now and he is FAR superior to who we used previously. His online systems are great and when there have been errors or miscommunication he has addressed them promptly and professionally.

Best payroll company I have used in the 12 years we have been in business. Dave and his staff are truly focused on our business and making payroll easy with no worries. They are great communicators and terrific people to work with. I highly recommend using Dave and Northstar.

Dave Olsen's business is built on the idea that the person managing payroll for your small business should be more than a bookkeeper. That person should also be a partner in your business' success, taking care of the bottom line while you focus on growing and running your day-to-day operations. I highly recommend Dave for his drive to serve his clients and provide his expertise for growing businesses.
