Case Study: Sweet Charlie’s of Augusta achieves streamlined payroll and more time to grow with ADP

Sweet Charlie’s of Augusta Starting an ice cream shop

Sweet Charlie’s of Augusta is a single-location hand-rolled ice cream franchise opened in 2018 by owner Bud Lawrence. When launching the shop, Bud needed to avoid getting bogged down in payroll so he could concentrate on operations, hiring and training his team.

They started using RUN Powered by ADP from day one, with a local ADP representative providing hands-on setup and ongoing support. By outsourcing payroll, Bud regained time to grow the business and develop employees, reduced administrative burden, and now recommends ADP’s services to other small-business owners.
