Case Study: Watters International Realty achieves scalable HR and saves 40 hours/month with Paylocity

How Watters International is laying a foundation for a stronger, more connected future with Paylocity

Watters International Realty, an 80+ employee real estate firm with four Texas locations, was contending with fragmented HR and payroll tools as it prepared to scale nationally. To move “from founder to firm” and meet stricter recruiting, payroll and performance requirements, Watters selected Paylocity’s integrated HR and payroll platform—using modules like Payroll, Employee Self-Service, Performance, Recruiting and Surveys—to consolidate systems and standardize processes.

Paylocity deployed a one‑stop platform that unified payroll and commission visibility, mobile self‑service, recruiting integrations (Indeed/JobTarget), performance templates and employee surveys. The implementation saved measurable time—about 10 hours/month on payroll questions via self‑service, 10 hours/month processing ad‑hoc paychecks, and 20 hours/month on HR reporting—while speeding hiring, standardizing reviews, improving culture insights and giving leadership faster P&L and commission reporting; Paylocity also provides the scalability Watters needs for future growth.
