Case Study: OuterBox achieves scalable HR and streamlined payroll across 30 states with Paylocity

Digital Marketing Experts Fuel Rapid Growth with More Scalable HR

OuterBox, an award-winning digital marketing agency that recently doubled in size to about 225 employees across 30 states after acquiring TopSpot, needed a more scalable HR and payroll platform to replace BambooHR. Facing manual benefits enrollment, limited recruiting and performance tools, and heavy HR administrative burden, OuterBox worked with broker Outsail and selected Paylocity’s HR and payroll solution to support rapid growth and multi-state compliance.

Paylocity implemented a full HCM stack—Payroll, Recruiting, Benefits Administration, Performance, Compensation, Employee Self-Service and Employee Voice—enabling 30-state tax compliance, streamlined benefits and recruiting (including candidate text notifications and calendar invites), faster reporting, and self-service access for employees. As a result of Paylocity’s platform and dedicated support, OuterBox cut HR admin time (saving one HR lead about seven hours per week), eliminated spreadsheet-based compensation work, accelerated reporting, and gained the scalable infrastructure to support continued growth.
