The Dwyer Group of Companies selects SurePayroll’s online payroll solution for its franchisees

Chicago - June 25, 2004 – SurePayroll, Inc. (www.SurePayroll.com), the nation's largest online payroll provider, today announced that it has negotiated a preferred provider relationship with The Dwyer Group of Companies, an international franchisor that provides a diverse array of specialty services through its service-based, brand-name franchises. Businesses owned by The Dwyer Group, Inc. include Rainbow International, Mr. Rooter, Mr. Electric, Mr. Appliance, Glass Doctor, and Aire Serv.

As part of this agreement, The Dwyer Group of Companies will be able to offer SurePayroll’s online payroll service to its franchisees located in the United States. Franchisees will take advantage of special discounts that SurePayroll and The Dwyer Group have agreed to.

Many franchisors elect to partner with SurePayroll in order to save their franchisees time and money. When identifying preferred providers, some franchises overlook administrative services. However, finding efficient administrative services can assist franchises immeasurably. Offering new franchisees a simple, cost-effective way of processing payroll and filing payroll taxes allows franchisees to focus on revenue generating activities.

Both companies believe franchisees of The Dwyer Group of Companies will find considerable value in SurePayroll’s payroll service. SurePayroll is a simple, reliable and economical payroll solution that can be accessed “anytime, anywhere” as long as there is an Internet connection.

“Franchisees are attracted to Dwyer Group franchise opportunities because of the depth of the company's support services,” noted Michael Alter, President of SurePayroll. “By embracing our online payroll solution, The Dwyer Group further enhances its offerings to franchisees and strengthens the bond between franchisor and franchisee."

“The Dwyer Group chose SurePayroll because of its strong commitment to technology and customer service,” commented Mike Bidwell, COO of The Dwyer Group. “SurePayroll is not only the nation’s largest online payroll service, but it only focuses on smaller businesses such as our franchisees. It is well-positioned to meet the needs of our franchisees, and we are confident our franchisees will find tremendous value in their service.”
