Case Study: Parks Marina achieves major time savings and streamlined payroll and onboarding with Greenshades Software

Unifying Payroll and Onboarding to Save Time and Increase Employee Efficiency

Parks Marina, a three-location marina and retail business on East Lake Okoboji, faced growing complexity managing a large seasonal workforce. Onboarding and payroll lived in separate, outdated systems, forcing manual data entry, paper pay stubs, no employee self-service, and even the need to hire an assistant. Parks Marina chose Greenshades Software and its Payroll and HR Platform to unify payroll and onboarding into a single, in-house system.

Greenshades Software implemented the Payroll and HR Platform to centralize multi-entity management, automate data flow from onboarding to payroll, and provide employee self-service with digital pay stubs. The change streamlined summer operations, saved over half a day of work each pay period, and eliminated the need to hire a $50,000 payroll administrative assistant, significantly reducing payroll overhead.
