Case Study: Sport Clips Haircut Franchise achieves significant cost and time savings and consistent multi-location management with RUN Powered by ADP

RUN Powered by ADP® helps to keep this franchise a cut above the rest

Sport Clips, a national men’s and boys’ haircut franchise founded in the early 1990s and headquartered in Austin, Texas, needed a payroll and HR solution that would save time and money while ensuring consistent operations and culture across multiple locations. Franchisees prioritized seamless integration, easier reporting and tools that would let them focus on growing the business and delivering a consistent customer experience.

By adopting RUN Powered by ADP, owners gained integrated payroll, HR, benefits administration and a mobile app for employee self‑service. Franchisees reported significant cost savings (one owner cited about $50,000 in total savings and $10,000 on family medical), the ability to offer affordable benefits including a 3% matching 401(k), flexible payroll processing, and integrations with tools like QuickBooks and ProfitKeeper—resulting in less administrative time, better employee attraction and retention, and more focus on customer experience and growth.
